National Change of Address System Keeps Direct Mail on Track

Every year approximately 40 million Americans move their place of residence and/or business, but their previous addresses will often remain in mailers' databases. As a result, direct mailings continue to go to the wrong location. It is estimated that at least 8% of all mail is undeliverable because of incorrect addresses. This means lost opportunities, lost sales, and wasted money.

The National Change of Address (NCOALink™) system includes a proprietary USPS database of postal customers who have changed their addresses, an invaluable resource for direct mail campaigns. As a licensed NCOALink service provider, PMSI Direct can help prevent your next mailer from ending up undeliverable. Our database management software has passed a series of rigorous tests by the USPS to meet NCOALink requirements, which allows us to clean and process your address lists with exacting standards. Addressing errors are identified and corrected prior to any mail pieces entering the mailstream, automatically saving you money. In addition, valuable customer names that would have been lost are updated to receive current and future mailings without the need for you to manually enter the changes.

Contact PMSI Direct if your address file needs updating. Our ability to clean-up your address file(s) will reduce costs and maximize your profitable results.
