For those of us who use direct mail as part of our overall marketing strategy, there's a great incentive to get something out sooner, rather than later…
The US postal service is raising the price of postage again — a first class stamp is going from 42 to 44 cents.
However…if you purchase the "Forever" stamp (the Liberty Bell ones), you can purchase them now and use them "forever" — pay 42 cents now and they're good after May 11th.
