We’re unveiling a revolutionary change in the world of business mailing. No need for a crystal ball to see that the era of clunky postage meters is on its way out. The demand for accurate, efficient, and fast mailing services remains essential for businesses of all sizes. So how can your business meet this need without emptying your pockets?

With Postalocity by Broadstroke, Inc.

Postage meters are often more trouble than they are worth for businesses seeking a seamless mail operation. From the initial cost required to purchase the machine to ongoing rental and lease fees, ink costs, maintenance costs, and upgrade costs, meters can incur significant expenses! We get it, you and your postage meter have been through it all. The envelope jams, the breakdowns, incorrectly printed postage, supply restocks, and maybe there was a company holiday card fiasco in there too. While we’re sure those memories may be bittersweet at best, it’s time to say goodbye and let those Postage Meters fly.

It’s no secret that USPS plans to let go of 70% of IBI devices in accordance with their new postal regulations, set to take affect June 30th, 2024. This means most businesses need to start looking into purchasing new machinery, if they haven’t already. Luckily, Broadstroke, Inc. can help rid you of this unforeseen expense!
