Online Mailing Companies
OK, I'm really pushing it here with two marketing posts today =)
Anyone have experience using online mailing companies to do mailers? Would like to be able to just upload a file of addresses or something like that. Is there anything out there?

I use www.usps.com (click on grow your business- click on netpost) good prices and excepts most formats-(ie. excel and comma delimited (.csv))
I tried USPS too! They don't do it themselves. They broker it out to mail shops. Subsequently, you will receive bids from mail shops all around the country. Unfortunately, I got ripped off with the first mail shop. The second was a pleasure. I stick to b&w postcards on color stock with a good list and these guys had no problems with it even though it wasn't a high dollar sale. I Emailed them the art and data, paid by credit card and was receiving customer calls 2 business days later. Let me know if you want thier number.
daburner, can you post the company you used?
I've since went with USPS and the grow your business thing. It works great, I upload an excel spreadsheet and away they go. Cheap too, last batch was 41 cents each

I also suggest using the USPS mailing online. I have an article that I wrote that is all over the internet that explains how and why to use it. Just google for "jason van orden" with the quotes and you will find the article.

maybe you should copy that article and post it in the article section of this website to help everyone here out, instead of promoting yourself. just a hint
I submitted the article 6 months ago to TCI and it was never posted. So I took the liberty of posting elsewhere and it has since made the rounds on the net. I would be more than happy for it to appear here for all to see, but that is not for me to decide.
