Brea, Calif. (PRWEB) July 12, 2007 -- Avery Print and Mail Center (PMC), the direct mail marketing group of Avery Dennison Office Products, announces the launch of its "Direct Mail Dish" blog.

"Direct Mail Dish", will be authored by Avery's team of direct mail and print experts as well as other industry veterans. With the help of guest blogger and direct mail industry veteran, Jerry Heisler, readers will receive valuable insight on how to improve their direct mail campaigns and, more importantly, drive results.

The blog will also serve as a place to recommend direct mail books and inform readers about upcoming direct mail events and seminars. It will even speak to specific vertical markets, such as real estate, insurance, financial, non-profit, medical and retail markets, about their unique business needs.

"We're looking forward to empowering our customers and blog readers to grow their businesses with a greater understanding of direct mail," said Avery Print and Mail Center Group Product Manager, Rick Day, "It's our goal to help our customers navigate the complexities of direct mail and take advantage of the benefits and exceptional return on investment that well-managed direct mail campaigns can provide."
