USPS Demands Rate Increase Ten Times that of Inflation
Dear Friends:
It’s crunch time. Right now, the Postal Regulatory Commission is making its final decision about whether it will do the right thing and reject the Postal Service’s demands to increase postal rates by ten times the rate of inflation.
So we need you to take action. Please, today – right now:
1) Start with the template fax below from you to the Postal Regulatory Commission.
2) Make sure you personalize it; feel free to change it in ways that make it personal to your situation and how rate hikes will affect you.
3) Then please fax it to the Postal Regulatory Commission at 202-789-6891.
4) Faxing is the best way to get to the PRC and make sure they pay attention. But you can also call them at (202) 789-6800. If they don’t pick up, be sure to leave a message!
After months of battle, this is the single best way you can help. Please help today!
You can also find all this information on our website at www.affordablemailalliance.org. Thank you for all you’ve done and continue to do.

Dear Members of the Postal Regulatory Commission,
Over the next few weeks, you have a critical decision to make: whether or not to do the right thing and reject the Postal Service’s demand for a rate increase of around ten times the rate of inflation.
As you know, there is so much at stake here. Approving this decision would negatively impact thousands of American businesses, including mine – many of which are already feeling the strain of the deepest recession since the great depression. Make no mistake: tens of thousands of jobs will be jeopardized as a result of a Postal Service rate hike.
And, as you know, the Postal Service’s exigency argument simply does not hold water. No short-term financial crisis exists, as admitted by the Service during your hearings. We are ready to work with the Postal Service to help them develop products that customers want and need; we believe it should explore the many other avenues open to cut costs and achieve efficiencies before raising prices on customers like us, which will accelerate its death spiral.
So we are urgently asking you to carefully consider the devastating effects a rate hike would have on business, jobs and the Postal Service itself. The stakes are too high to accept this Postal Service demand.
We ask you please to do the right thing and reject this demand.
Sincerely,

GLINT ADVERTISING APPOINTS NEW INTERACTIVE DIRECTOR
Glint Advertising, an advertising and marketing agency located minutes outside of Downtown Fort Worth, announced today that Ryan Cormier has been appointed Interactive Director for the agency, according to President Craig Lloyd.
The former Account Executive and Social Media Specialist will oversee all of Glint’s interactive projects, ranging from website design and development to search engine optimization, paid search campaigns and social media strategy and implementation.
“I could not be more thrilled to take on this new position,” said Cormier. “I am committed to formulating online strategies that complement and strengthen our traditional work, while also adding additional measurability for each client and their brand.”
This is the second major move that Glint has made this year in the online realm, which is estimated to account for $23.6 billion in marketing spending in 2010, according to Advertising Age (www.adage.com). In January, Glint announced its acquisition of a boutique web design firm out of Grapevine.
“You have to be nimble in the advertising industry,” said Patty Marshall, Vice President. “Having Ryan over our interactive department is a major value add to our clients and further strengthens our services as an agency.”
For more information, visit www.glintadv.com, or call 817‐616‐0320.
