Special Focus: Catalog Prospecting

The ACMA has been working closely with USPS VP Marketing Steve Monteith (at right) and Manager New Solutions Elke Reuning-Elliott (at left) to create a powerful incentive for catalog volume increases (greater prospecting opportunities). They will update attendees on where this work stands and what lies ahead to make it a reality. It’s a crucial session during the 10th Annual National Catalog Forum coming up in Washington, May 2-4, that you just can’t miss.

 

 

Meet the Postmaster General

In her annual address at the ACMA Forum, the Honorable PMG Megan Brennan (at right) will not only lay out her State of the Business on where she sees the USPS going this year, but she’ll also engage the audience on the key catalog-related issues that matter to you most. She’ll share her vision for catalogs in the mail and respond to all the questions time allows.

USPS 10-Year Review: The Postal Regulatory Commission is in the midst of a mandated review of the 10-year-old CPI price-capped postal rate-making system. Former White House Office of Legislative Affairs Denise Wilson (at right) leads a stellar panel of postal insiders who have a pulse on the intent and potential outcome of the 10-year review and its potential impact on catalogs in the mail.

 

Alex’s Insights : ACMA’s man about Washington Alex Vogel (at left), managing partner of VogelHood Group, will share his thoughts, ideas and prognostications on how President Trump’s ever-evolving agenda will impact catalog mailers in the unforgettable May 4th closing luncheon. Mr. Vogel and his team help provide guidance and access to many of the D.C. decision makers ACMA works with to sway crucial rulings in our catalog members’ best interests.
