Merry Christmas and Happy New Year from LetterStream! 🎄✨

As the holiday season fills the air with joy (and the irresistible aroma of cookies and gingerbread candles), we at LetterStream want to take a moment to share some gratitude and festive cheer. After all, nothing says “holidays” like a heartfelt thank-you and the promise of smoother mailing solutions for the year ahead.

Grateful for Our Incredible Customers

First and foremost, we want to express our deepest thanks to you—our amazing customers. Whether you’ve been with us for years or recently discovered the simplicity of sending mail online with LetterStream, we are grateful for your trust.

From one piece to one million, you rely on us to handle your mailing needs with precision and professionalism. Whether it’s sending invoices, legal notices, or Certified Mail, you’ve shown us just how important business-critical mail is to your success—and we’re proud to make it effortless for you.

With LetterStream, your mail always reaches the right place at the right time, so you can focus on growing your business or, better yet, enjoying a holiday cookie break (because you’ve earned it).

Thankful for Our Magical Team

Behind every successful piece of mail is a team of dedicated professionals who ensure your projects run seamlessly. During the holiday rush, they’re nothing short of magical—working like elves in a high-tech workshop to process your mail with care and efficiency.

From our technical team, who keep the LetterStream platform user-friendly and robust, to our production staff, who handle every job with precision, we couldn’t be prouder. Whether it’s a single holiday card or a million business-critical documents, they ensure every piece is handled like it’s the most important one.

Reflecting on 2024 and Looking Ahead to 2025

As we wrap up 2024, we’re filled with pride and excitement for the year ahead. This past year has been all about growth, innovation, and delivering solutions that make mailing simple and stress-free.

We’ve enhanced our platform to serve your needs better, expanded our capabilities to handle everything from bulk mail to urgent Certified Mail, and remained committed to being your go-to partner for business-critical mail.

What’s next for 2025? We’re planning even more tools and innovations to help you send mail easily, securely, and with confidence—whether you’re managing a single letter or a million-piece campaign.

How We Make Mailing Easier

At LetterStream, we understand that business-critical mail is about more than just envelopes and stamps—it’s about reliability, efficiency, and peace of mind. That’s why our platform allows you to upload your documents, customize your mailing options, and trust us to take care of the rest. From invoices to legal notices, we specialize in delivering solutions that ensure your mail arrives on time and hassle-free.

We like to think of ourselves as your very own virtual mailroom, accessible from anywhere, at any time. And the best part? You can rely on us whether you’re sending a single piece of mail or a high-volume project that needs to reach recipients across the globe.

A Festive Wish from Our Family to Yours

This holiday season, we hope you’re surrounded by warmth, joy, and maybe a few too many holiday treats (no judgment here). Whether you’re wrapping up the year with a mountain of mail or simply reflecting on your achievements, we’re honored to be part of your journey.

Here’s to a Merry Christmas filled with everything that makes the season bright and a Happy New Year bursting with potential. May 2025 bring smooth processes, exciting growth, and—dare we say it—less stress about mail. After all, with LetterStream on your side, you’ll never have to wonder, “Did I remember to send that mailing?”

Cheers to another amazing year of working together and making every mailing moment count.

Warm wishes,
The LetterStream Team 🎄🎉

LetterStream’s Dear Santa Toy Drive to Benefit Live & Learn AZ

LetterStream truly believes in making an impact—not just with your mail but in our community as well. Which is why this holiday season we’re playing Santa’s little helpers with our Dear Santa Toy Drive to benefit the inspiring women and children of the Live & Learn AZ Foundation. Their mission? Empowering women to break the cycle of generational poverty. Our mission? Ensuring their kids experience the magic of the holidays through gifts and joy.

Donating to Live & Learn AZ

We’ve turned our office into a Christmas haven, complete with a beautiful tree adorned with something extra special—paper envelopes, each containing a child’s name and their holiday wish. LetterStream employees eagerly grab an envelope (or two, or three!), head out to find that perfect gift, and return it unwrapped to our office.

But here’s the best part: The gifts go straight to the amazing moms in the Live & Learn program. These hardworking women, who are striving to create a brighter future for their families, get to experience the joy of giving the presents directly to their children. It’s their chance to be the hero under the tree—a moment of connection and pride that’s truly priceless.

Why This Matters

Live & Learn AZ is making a real difference by providing education, training, and support for women determined to rewrite their stories. By participating in this toy drive, we’re helping these families celebrate the season with a little extra sparkle, while also shining a light on the importance of programs like the Live & Learn AZ foundation.

But let’s not forget—this is also about those little faces lighting up when they unwrap a gift they’ve been dreaming of. Whether it’s a cuddly teddy bear, a set of crayons, Barbie, or that action figure they’ve had their eye on, these presents are so much more than toys. They’re symbols of love, hope, and brighter days ahead.

How You Can Help

If you’re reading this and feeling inspired, why not find a way to get involved in your own community? Whether it’s a toy drive, volunteering, or simply spreading awareness about organizations like Live & Learn AZ, there are so many ways to make a difference.

If you want to specifically help out the Live & Learn, you can click here to see the different ways you are able to give back to or volunteer and support this awesome foundation.

Making Holiday Magic Together

LetterStream is more than just a print and mail company that gets your important mail out quickly—we’re also about building connections and creating moments that matter. This holiday season, we’re proud to partner with Live & Learn AZ to bring a little extra magic to families who deserve it most.

So, here’s to the moms rewriting their stories, the kids dreaming big, and everyone who’s making this season shine a little brighter. Together, we’re proving that a little kindness can go a long way—and that’s something worth celebrating.

Happy Holidays from all of us at LetterStream! 🎄

Are you a charity or nonprofit looking for help with your donor mailings? After working with various nonprofit organizations, we created many easy-to-use solutions to help charities and nonprofit organizations. These solutions allow small nonprofits to easily take advantage of nonprofit postage rates and help with mailings that are required to be sent by first-class mail.

How To Celebrate At A Printing And Mailing Company

You may already know LetterStream as a printing and mailing company. One that can easily send mail online for businesses of all sizes but something you may not know about us is how much LetterStream values people, especially our customers and employees. With that being said, we believe in fostering a workplace culture that celebrates achievements, creativity, and the team that makes it all possible.

Now that fall has swept in we’ve been able to have not one but two fantastic opportunities to come together as a team to celebrate and have some fun. From our Halloween pumpkin carving contest to our Q3 bonus party at our Scottsdale location, it’s been a season of bonding, creativity, and a little hibachi flair.

Let’s get into it.

Pumpkins, Prizes, and Creativity Galore

Halloween at LetterStream brought out the best in our team’s creativity with our 2nd Annual Pumpkin Carving Contest. Employees took to their carving tools to create spooky, silly, and downright impressive designs, turning pumpkins into works of art. The competition was fierce, with unique designs that showcased our team’s talent and humor.

Of course, no contest is complete without prizes! Winners walked away with bragging rights and some exciting rewards. It was a fun-filled way to embrace the Halloween spirit and highlight the camaraderie that makes LetterStream such a strong workplace community.

Q3 Bonus Party: Celebrating Success Together

As the calendar turned toward November, we had another reason to gather: our Q3 Bonus Party at our Scottsdale location. This wasn’t just a typical celebration—it was a night filled with gratitude, reflection and a whole lot of delicious food.

The evening kicked off with snacks and our quarterly presentation, where we took a moment to reflect on our collective achievements and set sights on the future. We celebrated milestones, acknowledged hard work, and shared plans for what’s ahead—all while enjoying the energy and enthusiasm of the entire team.

The highlight of the night? A hibachi dinner experience that brought everyone together and boy was it fun. Watching the chefs in action was as entertaining as it was delicious, creating a dining experience that we won’t soon forget.

To top it all off, we had even more fun and handed out more prizes during the night. It’s moments like these that remind us how much we value every person who makes LetterStream the company it is today.

A Team That Feels Like Family

These celebrations are more than just fun events—they’re a reflection of who we are as a company. We pride ourselves on being the go-to for sending letters such as First-Class Mail, Certified Mail online and FedEx 2Day (among other services), but we believe in showing up for one another, enjoying the work we do, and recognizing the achievements that drive our success. Whether it’s carving pumpkins or sharing a meal, we cherish the moments that bring us together and strengthen the bonds within our team.

Here’s to more milestones, more celebrations, and more reasons to gather as a community. As we head into the final weeks of the year, we’re already looking forward to what’s next—both for our business and the incredible people who make it all happen.

LetterStream offers bulk printing and mailing services allowing companies to send physical mail online. Whether it’s online Certified Mail and First-Class Mail or FedEx 2Day and postcards we give both small businesses and large corporations that time and freedom back to work on tasks that better serve the company. If you’re interested in creating a free account you can do so, here.

Happy Labor Day to Our Team and Customers

As Labor Day approaches, we wanted to take a moment to celebrate and honor the incredible dedication and hard work that fuel our success. This holiday isn’t just about a well-deserved break; it’s a time to recognize the contributions of our employees and customers—those who drive industries forward and make progress possible.

Celebrating Our Employees: The Heart of LetterStream

Like we stated above, Labor Day is more than a day off; it’s a celebration of the effort, skill, and commitment that everyone brings to their work. At the core of LetterStream’s success is our team—a group of hardworking, passionate individuals who make everything we do possible. From the folks in our production facility who ensure every piece of mail is perfectly processed, including Certified Mail, to our customer service team that goes the extra mile to assist our clients, each person plays a vital role. We’re really proud of the team that powers our business— the people who go above and beyond every day to ensure that our customers receive the best service possible when sending mail online.

Appreciating Our Customers: Partners in Progress

It’s not just our team that deserves recognition, it’s also our customers, who rely on us to keep their businesses running smoothly who also play a crucial role in our success. Whether you’re managing high-volume mailings in healthcare, HOA, financial services, legal matters or any other industry, your commitment to excellence inspires us to keep improving and innovating. From invoice printing and mailing to statement printing and mailing, your trust in us motivates us to continually enhance our services.

Whether you’re sending critical documents, statements, large packet mailings, recall notices, violation notices, or everyday communications, we’re here to support you every step of the way.

Labor Day is also a celebration for you for the hard work you put into your businesses. We’re proud and honored to help you achieve your goals and keep your operations running smoothly, no matter the time of year.

Looking Ahead: Continuing Our Commitment

As we honor Labor Day, we also look forward to the future. The upcoming months are some of the busiest of the year, and we’re ready to meet the challenge head-on. Our commitment to excellence remains unwavering, and we’re excited to continue serving our customers with the same dedication and reliability that you’ve come to expect from us.

Whether it’s handling an increase in mail volume, ensuring timely deliveries, or providing solutions to streamline your processes like invoice printing and mailing or statement printing and mailing, our team is ready to assist. We’re in this together, and we’re committed to helping your business thrive.

On Labor Day, we want to express our deepest gratitude to our employees and our customers. Your dedication, creativity, and problem-solving skills are what set us apart. It’s because of you that we can confidently say we provide the best solutions for sending mail online and more specifically business mail online in the industry.

The USPS Holiday Season is Here! Let’s Give Thanks!

As we are in the thick of the holiday season with the increase in USPS holiday mail, our hearts are filled with warmth and joy over here at LetterStream. This time of year allows us to reflect on the abundance of blessings that surround us, from the meaningful connections we’ve forged to the challenges we’ve overcome together. As we are navigating our busy season with the increase of USPS holiday mail, we can’t help but reflect on how thankful we are for being able to still produce fast, perfect mail for our customers after all of these years.

In the spirit of gratitude, we invite you to join us in appreciating the moments that make this season so special. Here are a few ways we are truly grateful this holiday season and every day: 

Expressing Thanks for Team Collaborations

LetterStream’s success as a printing and mailing company is a testament to the incredible team that works diligently behind the scenes. This holiday season, we extend our deepest gratitude to each team member who contributes their unique skills and perspectives, fostering an environment of creativity and innovation. Together, we’ve achieved milestones and faced challenges head-on, emerging stronger and more resilient.  

As a team, we just held our Q3 Bonus Party and Thanksgiving Dinner. Our theme this year was, indeed, gratitude. Every quarter we do a bonus party for our staff because we want to let them know how grateful we are for the hard work they do, the mail they help produce and their dedication to not only LetterStream as a company but to our customers that we work with daily. It’s our way to say “thank you” to them each quarter.   

This bonus party felt a little extra special this year. As a company and as individuals we have so much to be grateful for and we not only wanted to showcase that at our dinner but it’s also something we are remembering and practicing for the rest of this quarter (and beyond).   

Appreciating Our Loyal Customers

To our valued customers, we want to express our heartfelt appreciation for the trust you’ve placed in us over the last 20 years. Your unwavering support has been the driving force behind our commitment to excellence.

Our loyalty and commitment has always been about treasuring people. In fact, that is our top core value; “we believe in the tremendous value of people and that all should be treasured.” With that said, we are excited to continue our growth into 2024 while finding new ways to continuously improve our processes to help add value and ease for our customers.

This holiday season, we celebrate the relationships we’ve built and look forward to continuing our journey together in the coming year. 

Reflecting on Community Engagement

Beyond the office walls, our commitment to gratitude extends to the communities we serve. Whether through charitable initiatives or local partnerships, LetterStream is dedicated to making a positive impact.

This year we contributed donations to the different Maui wildfire relief efforts to help individuals and animals affected by the fires. We are also currently participating in the St. Mary’s Food Drive and Toys for Tots program to help those in need.

This holiday season, we encourage everyone to find opportunities to give back to those in need. Not only does it bring joy to those who are less fortunate but it also helps build the collective strength that comes from supporting one another.

Counting Our Blessings in a Digital World

In a fast-paced, digital age, taking a moment to unplug and appreciate the simple joys can be transformative. Even though we are a SAAS company, we still encourage everyone to embrace the beauty of simplicity through meaningful in-person connections.

Maybe that looks like sitting down with someone for a meal or coffee, bringing in donuts or cookies to team members as a small token of appreciation, writing a handwritten note, or giving a nice card. Maybe it’s as simple as telling someone that you appreciate them or saying “thanks for being such a great help and I’m so thankful we worked on this project together to get the job done.”

Recognizing the power of personal connections in an increasingly virtual landscape is so important to remember.  

All-in-all, let’s come together to celebrate the spirit of gratitude this holiday season! We are so thankful for the relationships we’ve cultivated, the challenges that have shaped us, and the opportunities that lie ahead. As we express our gratitude, may we inspire others to do the same, creating a ripple effect of positivity that extends far beyond the holiday season!

And, just a friendly reminder to check the USPS website or our blog post for the postal holidays schedule so you can plan your USPS holiday mail and printing and mailing needs accordingly.

Remember: There is always something to be GRATEFUL for.   

With so much gratitude and appreciation,   

The LetterStream Team  

Las Vegas Debt Connection Symposium and Expo 2019

LetterStream

LetterStream takes on Vegas!

Come say Hi, and meet some of our LetterStream team. There are many ways that you can meet us, but in this case, all you have to do is stop by our booth. Were talking about the Las Vegas Debt Connection Symposium and Expo being hosted at the Red Rock Hotel, September 10th-12th, 2019. Our booth at this Expo will be stocked with our fantastic and passionate staff.

This Expo will be “focusing on networking and connection with clients, service providers, product suppliers, agencies, and attorneys- at a whole new level… This symposium and Expo’s concept is to have an opportunity to meet peers and other industry professionals, as well as finding new products and services that might make your job easier, better, more efficient, more productive, etc.”  (DCSE)

LetterStream is going to have staff on hand to explain why outsourcing print and mail projects makes the most sense, as well as showing how mail managers can get their important mailings out the door in as little as two minutes. We’re sure there will be many questions about how Certified Mail can be sent and tracked online without ever going to the post office, and will be more than happy to answer every last one of them.

Please stop in and see us about your first-class mailing, statement mailing, payment coupon booklet printing, FedEx letters, annual meeting notice, postcards, certified mail, and any other mailing projects that you might need for a better solution.

Be sure to stop by booth #202, and say hello. We will be awaiting your arrival. See you soon!

Welcome Ashlee, our New Customer Service Manager

Ashlee

Hold on, hold on, before you panic at this headline, Mike hasn’t left the LetterStream team.  He is now our Director of Customer Experience.  We figured that Mike could get a promotion if he could find someone just as awesome in customer service as he is.  That said, we didn’t think Mike would ever get a promotion.  Enter Ashlee.  We aren’t sure how Mike did it, but he actually found someone who can bring help and joy to customers as well as he can.  Ashlee has been with us a few months now, so some of you have already experienced her good nature, knowledge of our systems and overwhelming desire to help people out.

Ashlee has some 5-star training from Marriott hotels and resorts and has supported many different clients in an earlier payroll processing career.  These experiences are quite helpful to her on the job, but nothing can compare to the enthusiasm that she has to be a part of our team and her tremendous desire to support all of our customers.

Next time you call in, be sure and say “Hello and Welcome” to Ashlee.

LetterStream Learns – Internal Training Brand

LetterStream Learns Brand

We had a fun day today.  Well, we probably have fun most days, but today we launched our new internal training brand; LSLearns.  LetterStream always wants to develop, and cultivate an internal culture of learning to go along with our already “fast and perfect mail” mantra and our “mad customer love” vision for customer service.

It is our belief that as employees grow and learn they start to discover their unique talents that can unlock a tremendous amount of capability.  David, our President, is often heard saying that inside everyone is a hidden super power that can manifest itself in the workplace in amazing ways.  LSLearns is an attempt to formalize our belief that people, when awakened in the right way, can do amazing things.

Some skeptics may say, “Ah, this is just an attempt to squeeze more productivity out of people”.  We might respond; “Sure! Sort of.” After all, what’s wrong with more productivity? But “squeeze” probably doesn’t capture the essence of our training efforts, instead we might use the word “foster”. By creating training, learning and growing opportunities we allow our employees to decide how much effort to put into their own career development plan, and hopefully inspire them along the way to be excellent at whatever it is they are doing.

Leader of Leaders and Learner of Learners, Kay Coleman, helped us launch the day, and our new brand, by leading us through some activities to engage our minds in different ways.  Kay has been an active learner, teacher and facilitator for most of her life, was Program Director with iLeadAZ – a program developed to lead school principals to greater success, and now provides consulting services to companies (like ours!).  Thanks Kay, for coming along side us with our passion for learning!
