Market Yourself with Postage Stamps of Your Pets
According to Tim Stanley, Stamps.com Photo Stamps are coming back. The URL is http://photo.stamps.com.
PhotoStamps let you take your own photographs and turn them into real U.S. postage. To create PhotoStamps all you need to do is upload a photo, customize it using their easy-to-use interface, then place your order. Stamps.com, the company behind PhotoStamps, has been a USPS-approved provider of on-line postage since 1999.
Online, Tim shows some examples of Little Sheba his "Hug Pug" (http://hugpug.com) stamps from when photo stamps were available last
year: http://www.hugpug.com/sheba/sheba_stamps/. I have to say, Tim is a mighty lovesome for his pug, but they are awful cute.
It's a relatively inexpensive way to market your firm (or puppy) through the use of Official US Postage Stamps. I myself have no puppy, but I do have an African Gray parrot and a Greenwing Macaw. What do you think -- should I use Harry the Macaw?
I've come across singers and realtors who are using custom postage for branding. I'm sure it will spread!

Hi,
Apparently stamps.com isn't the only company to offer photo stamps. Endicia.com (http://www.endicia.com) just added this feature to its site.
