School is back in session, autumn is in the air, and the madness of summer is drawing to a close. September quietly signifies the beginning of the holiday season. September  tends be a time to strategize, plan, and lay down the groundwork for the work that will be done the rest of the year. Whether it’s a school group planning fundraisers and booster programs, or your office prepping for the holiday rush, September is a time to look forward.

Local Festivals and School Events

From religious organizations to school groups to small town harvest pride, all across the US communities find a reason to gather and celebrate in the fall. Every Door Direct Mail is a great way to make sure that you reach every home in the community with information about your upcoming event. Send out a flyer with event details or a postcard with a coupon to be used the day of the event.

Booster Groups

September is a common time for school to begin fundraising efforts and booster programs. School groups could send a catalog or booklet to families in the district listing ways to get involved, products to purchase, or other ways to help the school out. Managing your mailing list on Click2Mail is easy and efficient, without a single paper getting lost in a locker.
