Ebay mails one million postcards in multi-channel marketing effort.
Who says print is dead?
I used to. A lot.
But I’m seeing more and more that print has morphed into a “complementary” part of many multi-channel marketing efforts.

Want to help more people make impact by facilitating their acts of philanthropy but feel like too many obstacles keep getting in your way?
