CAMBRIDGE, Mass., Dec. 19, 2005 (PRIMEZONE) -- Window Book, Inc., the leader in postal mailing and shipping solutions, is providing free one-year subscriptions of their Postal Business Companion(tm) to help companies understand and manage upcoming changes in U.S. postal rates. The software includes current postage rates as well as the increase that takes effect January 8, 2006.
In anticipation of the postal rate change, Window Book is offering 100,000 free one-year subscriptions to its Postal Business Companion software.
"We know the change in Postal rates can hurt companies that aren't prepared, so we are offering free subscriptions to Window Book's Postal Business Companion," said Window Book President Jeffery Peoples. "Postal Business Companion can help businesses be more profitable by mailing and shipping more intelligently with software already prepared for the change in postal mailing and shipping rates."
Window Book's Postal Business Companion (PBC) is the only complete postal solution implemented with the current and new U.S. postal rates well in advance of the change in postal rates. PBC also contains a mail profits calculator and can stand alone or connect to electronic scales.
PBC is an indispensable mailing assistant for every business including big and small mailers and shippers. Instead of using costly postage scales that require a new chip every time there is a change in postal rates, connect PBC to your existing scale. Window Book's Postal Business Companion allows users to calculate postage, instantly compare rates among USPS categories (current and future), and determine profits and break-even response for direct mailings.With the click of a mouse, Window Book's PBC allows mailers to see both current and upcoming United States postage rates. This ability to view both the current and new postal rates -- ahead of the rate change -- can help determine budget allotments for the coming year and allows customers to establish a mailing schedule depending on cost in advance of competitors. Since PBC reads a number of electronic scales, mailers can be absolutely positive about what they are paying for postage.
In addition, PBC has the capability to:
-- Update rates quickly via the Internet
-- View USPS-accurate Postal Rates easily on your computer monitor
-- Calculate postage for parcel and mailings
-- Analyze the profitability of your next mailing
-- Helps you fill out Postal Applications and forms
