Oct 13, 2023

Does your company rely heavily upon effective direct mail campaigns? Then CASS certification is critical to your success.

We’ve covered CASS previously on this blog, because it’s important. CASS stands for Coding Accuracy Support System. It is a process developed by the United States Postal Service (USPS) to improve the accuracy of address matching and enhance the delivery of mail – and it can make ALL the difference in your campaigns.

Why does CASS certification matter for your business class direct mail?

  1. Enhanced Address Accuracy: CASS certification stands as a sentinel for your mailing list, ensuring not just accuracy but an elevated standard of address precision. Beyond the basics of correcting errors, it’s about standardizing addresses to a meticulous degree and verifying their deliverability. This meticulous process isn’t just about avoiding undeliverable mail; it’s a strategic move to curtail wasted postage costs. In a landscape where every piece of mail matters, CASS certification becomes the guardian of your mailing list’s integrity, guaranteeing that your communications reach the intended recipients with pinpoint accuracy.
  2. Maximum Postage Savings: CASS certification isn’t merely a seal of accuracy; it’s a gateway to substantial postage savings. By aligning your mail pieces with USPS presort discounts, you open the door to a realm of optimized automation and sorting. This strategic alignment doesn’t just qualify you for lower postage rates; it’s a financial maneuver that translates into tangible savings for your business. In a world where postal expenses can be a significant operational overhead, CASS certification becomes the key to unlocking a more cost-efficient mail strategy.
  3. Financial Transparency: Our proprietary, USPS-approved software isn’t just a tool; it’s a window into financial transparency for your business. With on-demand reporting at your fingertips, you gain complete visibility into your postage expenses. This transparency isn’t merely a matter of accountability; it’s about wielding control over your costs. Tracking and analyzing your postage expenses become seamless processes, ensuring that every dollar spent aligns with your strategic goals. In a financial landscape where precision matters, CASS certification becomes your compass for navigating postal expenses with clarity.
  4. Improved Supply-Chain Reporting: CASS certification isn’t confined to the realm of addresses; it extends its impact to supply-chain reporting for your entire mail production process. This certification empowers you to track each stage of the mailing journey, from the initial printing phase to the final delivery. The result is a granular understanding of your mail campaign’s efficiency and effectiveness. This level of supply-chain reporting isn’t just about insights; it’s a strategic advantage, allowing you to fine-tune your processes for optimal results. In a world where data is the backbone of informed decisions, CASS certification becomes the catalyst for supply-chain excellence.
  5. Expanded Mail Piece Tracking: Embracing CASS-certified software goes beyond standard certification benefits; it’s about expanding your horizon in mail piece tracking. This means not just monitoring your mailings but doing so with enhanced precision within the USPS mail stream. The ability to track the progress of your mail pieces translates into more than just data; it’s peace of mind. Timely delivery is no longer a hope but an assurance, providing not just operational confidence for your business but also a delightful experience for your customers.
