It's time to mail your letters now!!! The first thing you should think about when you start this business is on getting a P.O box. We will show you how you can you get one. A P.O box is a numbered compartment on the premises of a post office that can be used as a secure address for correspondence. All the mail addressed to your P.O box from your customer's orders will be sent directly to your post office box. We recommend you this because it's a safe and efficient way to receive mail. Don't you ever make the mistake of putting your home address on your flyers and ads. There are several benefits on having a P.O Box. The most important is that it will give you and your family a sense of anonymity. If you are going to do this has a home business, obviously you don't want someone knocking at your door making some orders unless they are neighbours or friends. Another thing is the security the post office gives to your mail. In there you know that it can't be stolen or lost. P.O boxes are affordable so we do recommend you to get one if you are starting this as a home business. There are a few things that you must not forget. P.O boxes should be checked at least once a month because otherwise it could be cancelled and all mail returned to the sender. If you are going to have an all year business you should check your P.O box at least three times a week because costumers don't like to wait a long time for their orders. If you live very far away from your local post office you could always ask them to forward to your home address all your P.O. Box mail.
For renting a P.O Box you only have to go to your nearest post office and fill out the application form. The P.O boxes come in different sizes so consider the size and volume of mail you intend to receive when you rent it. The number of sizes varies with the country. P.O boxes are usually paid for either on a monthly or annual basis. The rules of the P.O boxes varies from post office so we recommend you to visit the nearest to you to get more information.
After creating your P.O box and started you marketing campaigns you should expect to receive the first orders. If you only marketed offline your business and your P.O box is the only way for you to receive your orders, you should visit your post office everyday.
