Research for Life's a Pitch

This is the research I did in preparation for the session on 30th November.

Postage prices research - this might affect the sized we make the prints and posters available in so that it could fit into a cheaper price bracket. 


Would we have to send through Royal Mail or can we send through a courier?
UPS, Parcel Force, MPD, DHL...
A business account would mean better deals on pricing. 

Packaging costs - envelopes, tubes, jiffy bags, etc.
Boarded envelopes and jiffy bags are cheap enough to buy in bulk from places like amazon or eBay. 
We would need to decide on the sizes we definitely needed and see if there is a wholesaler who could provide these for even cheaper. 
Would we print the designs ourselves on the envelopes?
Would we pay the printer we would use to do it for us?
Would we still have to provide the blank envelopes or would we pay them to source them?

Name Ideas
Twelve, Douze, Illustr8 (appropriate for 8 winning designs), Monthly Draw,
