Pinellas County Florida Libertarians on the Postal Customer Council

About the Postal Customer Council

http://www.usps.com/nationalpcc/about.htm

The Postal Customer Council - PCC® was established in 1961 to improve communications between U.S. Postal Service® customers and managers. The organization has grown increasingly more important since the 1970s, when business mailing issues became its primary focus.

Today, there are more than 200 local Postal Customer Councils with approximately 120,000 members across the nation. Regular meetings, educational programs, mailer clinics, and seminars keep members abreast of the latest Postal Service? developments. Members also work closely with local Post Office locations to make mail service more efficient, resulting in improved delivery and greater customer satisfaction.

Join Your Local PCC 

The PCC program is designed to benefit both the USPS and all size business mailers by improving communications, solving local challenges, and disseminating best practices for cost-effective and more profitable mailings. Currently, most local PCCs include large business mailers, government agencies, and business mail service providers. However, small businesses stand to benefit more from PCC membership. Small businesses are less likely than larger organizations to have full-time mailing professionals with the expertise to optimize mailing operations. That?s where PCC membership helps. Small business mailers that want to learn how they can take advantage of USPS products, services, tools, and resources to help grow their business should join a local PCC. PCC membership provides you with the opportunity to:

• Learn from postal experts about marketing through the mail
• Find new sources for mailing lists. Printing, database management, and more
• Get discounts to major mailing industry events
• Network with other mailers, business mail service providers and USPS executives to discover new ways to make your mailings more efficient and profitable
• Hear first-hand from other decision-makers on how they deal with the same challenges you face
• Leverage best practices to improve mailing effectiveness, efficiency and profitability

Locate a PCC

If you are interested in becoming a PCC member, join your local PCC. There are hundreds of local PCCs nationwide, so chances are there is one in your area.
