How much lead-time is required to create and mail invitations?
If you’re planning your first seminar using the “Seminars Plus” system, you should allow six weeks lead-time from the date you place your order with CIS, to the date of your seminar. This breaks down as follows: 7 days to finalize copy and layout, 9 days to process your list, typeset, print, and mail your invitation, 8-12 days in the mail (postal delivery, standard class), 8-10 days for recipients to respond. Total: 32-38 days (approximately 5 weeks). Subsequent mailings, requiring only time, date, and/or location changes, can be accomplished with slightly less lead-time.
