pay your postage with advertising



Adland points to a new advertising vehicle. Envelopes.

Looking past the fact that we use envelopes less and less, this is a pretty cool idea. Advertising supported envelopes. They pay the postage. You use the envelopes with ads on them. Especially good idea for pop culture brands. Who doesn't want a Harry Potter envelope?

Only one downside - they want users to accept email ads, too. Seems unnecessary. Sell the envelopes, not the spam.

Doesn't look like it's live yet - but I'm sure that we can all look forward to Burger King envelopes in our future.
