In addition to the January 22, 2012 postage increase for market dominant and competitive products, the U.S. Postal Service has proposed significant changes to its network of processing facilities and First Class delivery standards in an effort to return to profitability.

1) Reduce your postage costs–despite the rate increase, and
2) Maintain service levels–despite the proposed changes to First Class standards.
