When mailers decide how they will implement Intelligent MailŪ the benefits they can derive will be based on the level of uniqueness they will assign to the Intelligent MailŪ Barcode number. Even if there are no immediate needs to take advantage of these potential benefits, mailers would be wise to design their IMB implementation to assign barcode numbers unique to the mailing and the addressee so that Intelligent MailŪ benefits can be enjoyed at a later date without another implementation project.

Maximizing ZIP Code Densities To Earn Better Postage Discounts

Mailers looking to improve their postage discounts by commingling the different mailings that they do each day should first look to and see if they can be commingled electronically. This type of commingling may require changes to the way they document their mailings but it is very cost-effective. If this is not possible in-house machine based sorting solutions and outsourced machine based solutions may be good options for mail that can not earn 5 digit discounts and in some cases, 3 digit disounts.
