PMQ has created an

Innovation Award was awarded to the U.S. Postal Service for their
website development that will help our industry better understand and
use direct mail. View this great website at

John Ward, VP of Marketing for the U.S. Postal Service and Marshall Emery, associate VP of Marketing were both honored. Emery was on hand to receive the awards at a special ceremony in Chicago.
There
work came to our attention thanks to a nomination from ZipM. com

their company. Nominations are now being accepted for next years award.
