TNT Post brings lower postal costs to Bristol businesses
19 March 2007
TNT Post, the leading challenger to Royal Mail in the UK postal market, is today launching a marketing drive to educate local businesses in Bristol on its easy to use, cost effective and reliable mail service which will help save them valuable time and money.
Under a 20 x 8ft TNT Post branded balloon flying high over their office in Patchway, TNT Post South West Ltd are holding a day of intensive promotional activity to reach as many businesses in Bristol as possible.
The day starts at the Bristol Marriot Royal Hotel with a breakfast seminar where, Bristol born TNT Post South West Ltd team members, Trevor Murphy and Kevin Parsons will present TNT Post’s offering to local business people. TNT Post representatives will then be available to greet local businesses at a number of different locations around Bristol, including the Aztec West Business Park, to discuss the new service.
Launched in November 2006 on board the SS Great Britain, TNT Post South West Ltd offers ‘PremierSort Flex’, a day definite mailing solution designed specifically to benefit local businesses that send from 250 unsorted mail items per day or have weekly, monthly or irregular mailshot requirements. TNT Post will collect all mail from clients, process these items on state-of-the-art sortation equipment and ensure final mile delivery into the recipients’ letterbox. Businesses in the Bristol area also benefit from a dedicated local account management team.
Trevor Murphy, Managing Director, TNT Post South West Ltd, commenting on the launch said:
“Since our launch in November, over a dozen Bristol businesses have signed up and are taking advantage of our cost savings and reliable service. We now want all Bristol businesses to know that the deregulation of the mail postal market last year is not only good news for large national mailers but also for small to medium sized local businesses. Bristol businesses now have a choice and that choice is TNT Post. “With PremierSort Flex, companies in Bristol are able to experience a fast, easy to use and reliable postal service for mailings of 250 letters or more that offers flexible pick up times, dedicated account management, day definite delivery and considerable savings that will impact the company’s bottom line.”
TNT Post South West Ltd is part of TNT Post which was established in early 2003. TNT Post signed its downstream access agreement with Royal Mail in April 2004 and began operations in August 2004. Since its launch it has enjoyed significant growth and is now widely regarded as the leading competitor to Royal Mail, processing over 120 million items a month to households across the UK.
In a relatively short time TNT Post has impressed businesses with its innovation, high-level service approach and cutting-edge technology investments to notch up some significant wins across a range of sectors now including customers such as BT, Centrica, Thames Water, npower, Lloyds TSB, Barclays, Sainsbury’s, Next, Sky and T-Mobile.
