ACMA: Please Sign On to Industry Letter in Support of Postal Reform Bill

Dear Industry Member:

Click here (https://security-us.mimecast.com/ttpwp#/checking?key=dG9tLnBhbmtvd0BtaWRsYW5kY28uY29tfHJlcS1lNGUxNTYyN2RiMmY4M2JlYmU4YThmOGQ5MTEyNmNhOA%3D%3D) to review our mailing industry coalition-based letter in support of HR 3076 -The Postal Service Reform Act. We and other organizations and companies who comprise the Coalition for a 21st Century Postal Service have been asked to support this signifcant and helpful bill.

Getting this passed with a clear bipartisan majority in the House will grease the skids in the Senate. Constituent influence is the key to getting this done. We hope to obtain as many signatures from companies and trade associations as possible, demonstrating broad support. The ACMA is signing onto the letter and we urge you to review it, then send a quick reply directly to this email whether you’d like your company’s name added or not. Sorry for the short notice, but please get back to us no later than 10:00 am Eastern Time Tuesday, February 1st.

This bill is the product of years of work by ACMA and others. As with much Congress does, it is not perfect, but it is clearly helpful and while we will continue to work for improvements, we cannot let perfect be the enemy of good. This is good as written and we must move quickly as things will soon devolve into election year politics and nothing may be possible.

ACMA member or not, if you mail, you should support this bill. Please reach out with any questions, and thank you for taking action!

Thank you,

Hamilton Davison
President & Executive Director

Print is Still Very Much Alive at Bauer Media Group (Folio)

It’s been a rather tumultuous year for magazine media, to say the least. With so many consumers reading content on digital platforms, it appears that many publishers are reducing print frequencies or altogether shuttering print editions of magazines to focus on digital initiatives and cut costs. While most publishers seem to be drifting away from print, Bauer Media Group is doing just the opposite. In 2018, the media giant is not only continuing its print editions, but also increasing frequencies for four of its titles, with Life & Style slated to rise from 51 to 53 issues, and Closer, In Touch and Woman’s World from 52 to 53 issues. “Bauer earns a positive margin on every issue from single copy sales,” Bauer CEO Steven Kotok (pictured) tells Folio:. “So the more issues we publish, the more money we earn, unlike an ad-dependent model in which fewer ads each year are spread over the same number of issues.” Click Read More below for additional information.
