Response Handling Solutions
We deliver a high-tech service for even the most low-tech of fundraising channels.
Our Process
Our response handling process includes:
- Mailroom Sortation: Our automated mail sorting system, using OCR scanning for printed and handwritten addresses, barcodes, and other unique identifiers, enables us to sort around 35,000 items per shift!
- Post Opening: Our multi-skilled, dedicated team opens, sorts and batches large volumes of mail quickly and efficiently on our mail opening lines. We can even operate 24/7 during peak periods.
- Scanning: We scan envelope contents and record them as digital images in our system, using barcode reading and OCR software to identify supporters in our database and read the information on the response.
- Manual Capture and Validation: When required, our experienced operators can manually capture information and quality check it for improved accuracy. This is done in careful compliance with our ISO 9001 accreditation.
