USPS offers assistance to grow global
Are you aware that only ONE percent of all United States businesses sell internationally? With the ability to market your products or services to over 190 countries, selling and growing globally makes sense!
Postmasters Anne Murray, Fort Myers and Richard Barber, Naples will host four seminars to help small business owners and eBay sellers learn how to reach those international buyers and ship their products economically. Program attendees will learn how to take advantage of discounts and simplified customs forms offered to shippers who print postage labels from their home or office computers.
The Postal Service has several different products for international shipping which include Global Express Guaranteed, Express Mail International, Priority Mail International and First-Class Mail International.
