You can also participate on one of the AMSP’s committees or a peer group – but, if you can’t attend, there is always the “virtual” networking opportunity using the list serve, an e-mail based discussion thread in real time, or the website.
Education and Events
Until you attend a conference, you cannot appreciate what a great resource AMSP can be for you and your company. Not only do you get a topnotch classroom education, you also have an opportunity to experience the sharing nature of our organization, which is the true essence of belonging to an association. Plant tours, roundtables, receptions, and comfortable conversations with peers are always rated as the most appreciated benefits. It’s not unusual for conversations on a bus ride or over a meal to develop into lifelong friendships and business relationships.
Representation

AMSP meets regularly with key Postal Service Headquarter staff, and is in regular contact with the Postal Regulatory Commission and other influential panels. This active involvement has successfully protected and advance members’ interests on a variety of major topics. AMSP also has industry experts available to give members advice on fulfillment operations, postal questions, or employment and HR issues.
If your company is serious about succeeding and wants to align with a professional organization that has been supporting the industry and its members for years, you should consider joining the Association of Marketing Service Providers.
