The benefits of outsourcing mail fulfilment

As well as being a printer, another significant element to our business is mail fulfilment. There are many reasons why a business should outsource their mail fulfilment, here are the ones we think are the most important.

Outsourcing your mail can save money in a number of ways. We can make cost savings on consumables like paper, envelopes and postal discounts, due to the economies of scale we are able to achieve. Optichrome can print your letter, supply the envelope, machine enclose and post it all under one roof. When it comes to releasing items to post, we are always looking for ways to save our clients cost on postage. We have access to discounted rates from both Royal Mail and downstream access providers and always endeavour to provide our customers with the best available rates, depending on the mail piece.

As the old saying goes ‘time is money’, why spend time stuffing letters into envelopes when you can outsource to Optichrome. We have machinery that was built exactly for this purpose and can enclose tens of thousands per day. Outsourcing the work means you have more time to spend on other areas of your business, safe in the knowledge that your mailing is being taken care of by experienced professionals. Our cutting-edge technology affords us a great amount of flexibility, meaning we can make last-minute adjustments to mailing insertions.

The success (or failure) of any mailing campaign is hugely dependant on the quality of your data.  We have access to data checking tools and software which remove duplicates and can also validate the accuracy of fields, such as postcodes. Our many years of experience in mailing allows us to ensure that every envelope reaches the correct destination. With 2D barcoding and cameras fitted on our fully automated mailing line, our procedures ensure that every envelope and package that leaves our building is accounted for, with its contents accurately enclosed, no matter how complex.

Our years of experience in this field means you have access to advice from industry experts. Our staff will be able to guide you through your campaign from start to finish to ensure it all goes smoothly.
