Our Expertise
Bindery
Most finishing steps for letter packages can be completed in line on our inserters, reducing turnaround time as well as handling. Our bindery capabilities include high-speed folding and card affixing, cutting, inter-stacking and nesting of letters and forms; wafer sealing and gluing of self-mailers; and UV coating, laminating, and die cutting of postcards. We specialize in imaging and affixing promotional cards to letters and forms. Embossed cards can also be matched to forms using a sophisticated camera technology that reads 3D embossing.
Lettershop
Large volume mailings fly through production on our battery of high speed inserting systems. They combine cutting and folding of continuous printed forms in-line with inserting to maximize speed and efficiency. Read/write systems address closed face envelopes, and can print images and tag lines in full color to match the inserted letters. Camera systems scan and match multiple personalized components as they are inserted.
Postal Optimization
Mailers are continually impacted by increases in postal costs. It's critical to choose a provider with detailed knowledge of postal rates, presorting, and postal optimization methods. J&Q has provided companies with significant postage savings with our customized Hybrid Solution. We ensure your mailings receive the lowest total postal costs including postage, fees, and freight, as well as timely in-home delivery.
Quality Control
Along with security, quality control is emphasized in every step of the production process at J&Q. Dedicated QC staff work with each department to review procedures and train employees on our vital QC processes. From the initial review of data and art through programming, printing and mailing, our staff reviews the output from each step and documents the checks to provide a complete audit trail. Our focus on quality control ensures your direct mail is accurate and top quality.
Lettershop
In addition to large volume letter packages, our lettershop also specializes in:
- Full color variable print envelopes that are addressed and printed as the letters are inserted, customizing each package to the recipient
- Closed-face matched letter packages using read/write and camera match systems to insure accuracy.
- Cameras can also verify and audit accurate insertion of live checks and other sensitive documents.
- Hand assembly and fulfillment for special projects.
Postal Optimization
We don't automatically mail each project using a specific method. Our postal experts use a customized Hybrid Solution to optimize each mail file and use a combination of drop shipping and commingling to achieve the lowest postage and freight rate, while meeting in-home dates.
We can track your mail through the postal system using USPS Confirm Tracking to verify when mail is reaching in-home.
J&Q can implement USPS Interactive Informed Delivery campaigns for your direct mail programs. Informed Delivery users will see a color image of your mail package before it arrives, as well as a link directly to your on-line offer.
Postage is a large percentage of direct mail budgets. We focus on postal optimization for each mailing to lower your postage rates and delivery costs.
