    Hello,

    For a B to B marketing campaign, I need a service provider.
    I would send 10 000 letters in the USA.

    I am looking for a provider printing my document and sending it based on address listing.

    Do you know a good provider for this kind of job ?
    How much will cost it me ? Less than 4000$ including postal fees ?

    I use this hubcast.com
    And their rate is quite reasonable with high printing quality.

    thanks,
    I have visited the site. It seems they only print but don't send the letter (based on a adress listing).

    In Europe, I am already using this company :
    http://www.flydoc.com/rates/postal_mail.asp
    it is 0.24$ rate (+0.22 per stamp).
    For the european market, it is competitive.

    But maybe there are better alternative in the US ?

    You live is US?

    Why don't you approach the US postal department since that will be much more cost effective solution.

    In India, our postal department has started this services and its very affordable. BTW from this thread, I am too thinking of approaching them soon.

    Well, I don't know and never tried because its not available to us. I have also heard of google media ads, but again its not available to us, so I don't know much about it. You may get more details at adwords.google.com.

    Regarding postal mail solutions, I think you should contact the US Post and they may be able to guide you. You can get more details at http://www.usps.com/
