We've decided to do a series of videos about Every Door Direct Mail (EDDM) from the USPS. This was actually the first EDDM video we created and we hope you find it both entertaining and educational. You could help us a lot by letting us know what you like or don't like about our videos by leaving a comment on our posts. Thanks for watching!

As you may know, our Mail Music Monday tradition features songs that mention or are in some way related to snail mail. As the tradition continues, we bring you “Anchorage” by Michelle Shocked. Michelle Shocked was born in Dallas, TX and has led a very interesting life. I hope I have the chance to see her live in the near future.
