The 2019 National Postal Forum (NPF) was held at the Indianapolis Convention Center earlier this month. During Postmaster General Megan J. Brennan’s keynote address, she talked about the Postal Service’s commitment to business customers and to innovation.
In her keynote address, PMG Brennan gave Informed Delivery, which now has 2,000 business users, as an example of this commitment and of digital’s potential. “This is a powerful offering that moves the mail recipient closer to making the purchase,” Brennan said. There are currently 16.4 million registered user and the Postal Service wants increase that number to 40 million by the end of 2020 partly by including package integration. “This will provide a powerful new means of engaging for both package senders and recipients.”
The PMG also spoke about the Postal Service commitment to helping the nation’s businesses get a greater return on mail and package delivery investment. Said Brennan, “We leverage our information infrastructure to empower our business customers with the right data, at the right time so they can reach the right consumers, and so that those consumers can make the most informed purchasing decisions.”
