One of the factors that makes a PostalAnnex+ different from other opportunities is the flexibility of product offerings. When you buy a franchise from PostalAnnex+, you get to tailor some part of the business model to fit your community's needs.
Services such as wide format printing, high-speed scanning, shredding, disc duplication, slide conversion, selling packaging supplies online and more are all examples of services some, but not all, of our franchisees offer to their neighborhood.
Like a menu we've prepared in a fine restaurant, you can select those products and services you think will meet the needs of those in your community.
When you buy a franchise from us, you aren't treated like a location number, but an entrepreneur looking for the best fit of individual skills and desires for their own business.
Contact our Franchising Department today and ask for more information to help you decide if a PostalAnnex+ is a good fit for your goals and aspirations.

PostalAnnex+ Shipping Franchise Offers Customers a Choice
You might be asking, "How is PostalAnnex+ different than any other shipping franchise?"
It's a good question, as not all shipping franchises are equal.
Simply put, PostalAnnex+ offers its customers choices in shipping. UPS, FedEx, Postal Service and in some areas even DHL for international shipments. At some of our competitors, they offer only one carrier for shipping. Is that what's best for the customer? We don't think it is.
For example, FedEx limits insurance on shipments containing jewelry to $1,000 while UPS can insure for up to $50,000 (see carrier's tariffs for complete information). If you were at a location that only ships FedEx, you might be out of luck on a $2,000 piece of jewelry missing.
On the other hand, your overnight letter of concert tickets is covered by UPS for a replacement cost only up to $100 while FedEx covers up to $50,000. You'd be out of luck if you were at a store that only ships UPS and it cost more than $100 to replace lost or delayed tickets.
So you see, having a choice allows the customer to choose the carrier that is best for their shipment. Certainly cost is one important factor, but coverage in case something goes wrong is important, especially in the rare occurrences when help is needed.
A PostalAnnex+ shipping franchise offers customers that all-important choice....a very important difference when looking to buy a franchise.
If you're interested in knowing more about owning your own business, listen to testimonials from some of our franchisees on why they chose PostalAnnex+.

Retiring but Not Done? Buy a Franchise!
According to the San Diego Union-Tribune, more than 600 employees of the City of San Diego have put in for retirement this year, triple the number last year.
Is it because the baby boomers are now creating a wave of retirees? Possibly. But the article attributed the large increase to a cut in city benefits that take effect this month.
By retiring now, these employees are locking in better rates for their pension payouts and healthcare coverage.
But are these employees done?
Not so. And with many of these retirees in their fifties, they’re bound to be looking for the next place to utilize their experience and skills.
One popular choice is to buy a franchise. Franchising offers a prospect the ability to join a tested system rather than start a concept from scratch. In exchange for a franchise fee to start, and ongoing royalties and advertising fees, franchisees get support in the areas of:
o operations
o computers
o customer relationship building
o skill-building
o networking
o marketing planning
o advertising materials
o setting up a store's website
o marketing co-op funds
o ...and more.
To buy a franchise usually requires a level of net worth, depending on the type of franchise. PostalAnnex+ has a relatively low investment, compared to all the options available, ranging from $138,800 to $200,050.
PostalAnnex+ also offers its franchisees a Matching Funds Program in which a portion of the advertising fees paid are returned to the franchisees for qualified advertising expenditures.
In addition, when people buy a franchise from PostalAnnex+, they get assistance with site selection, directions in financing, comprehensive training both pre-and after opening, award-winning marketing materials, and more.
One of the first best steps for a retiree or anyone else seeking to own their own future and buy a franchise is to check out the Company’s franchising website.
