Shipping Customers | 9% | 27,000 | 29,430 | 32,079 | 34,966 | 38,113 | 9.00% |
P.O. Box Customers | 3% | 2,547 | 2,623 | 2,702 | 2,783 | 2,866 | 2.99% |

Total | 7.97% | 38,121 | 41,141 | 44,414 | 47,960 | 51,803 | 7.97% |
The Shipping Centre is targeting these customers because they represent a growing portion of the population.
Currently there are several different companies that offer a similar service offering to The Shipping Centre. They are typically located in high traffic areas. They provide Mail Box service as well as fax and shipping. These different companies offer a commodity-like service. People tend to make choices based on convenience. Market research indicates that consumers perceive little difference between competitors, and there is little loyalty that customers display toward a specific store other than convenience.
The Shipping Centre’s competitive edge will be based on two factors, customer service and convenience.
The Shipping Centre’s sales strategy will be based on work flow efficiencies and superior customer service.
The first month will be spent setting up the business. There will not be any sales activity during this time period. By the second month the store will be open to customers and they will begin to trickle in. It will not be until months four and five that there becomes a steady stream of customers.
For the shipping and fax service The Shipping Centre expects a steady increase in business. For the Mail Boxes, there will be a steady increase until the boxes are near full utilization and then there will be a plateau of sales activity from the boxes.

Steve Freighter is the founder and owner of The Shipping Centre, an Oregon Corporation. Steve is forming The Shipping Centre as a corporation to eliminate any personal liability issues. Steve has a degree in political science from Oregon State University. While at OSU, Steve worked part time at UPS as a driver. This part-time job gave Steve valuable insight into the shipping business.
While at OSU, Steve took a business consulting course and Steve’s semester project was to do a full business consultation for a company of his choice. Recognizing that he would like to have his own company some day, he studied a company called Mailboxes Etc. From this project, Steve got valuable insight into the business.
The main conclusion that Steve presented to the company was that the services provided were too commodity like and the business space was quite competitive. He suggested some sort of meaningful differentiation. The company ultimately did not heed Steve’s advice, partly because of ties with the corporate parent, partly because of cost issues, their margins were not enough to be able to institute the changes Steve suggested. Steve has walked away from this project with the insight and industry knowledge needed to allow his store to succeed.
These experiences as a whole, provide Steve with a wealth of practical and analytical knowledge needed to nurture The Shipping Centre into a profit making venture.
The staff will consist of Steve working full time for The Shipping Centre. In addition, by month two Steve will be bringing on a part-time employee. That employee will be turned into full time by month three and Steve will bring on board a second full-time employee by the fourth month. By month seven Steve will bring on board a third part-time employee.

Are you looking for ways to start your own business? If so, consider starting a mailboxes business. This is a great opportunity to be your own boss and earn a profit while helping others. In this guide, we will provide you with all the information you need to get started. We will cover everything from choosing a location to marketing your business. Let’s get started!
What is a private mailboxes business, how do i find customers for my private mailboxes business.
A Mailboxes business is a type of business that provides mailing and shipping services. This can include receiving and sending mail, package delivery, courier services, and other related services. Mailboxes businesses typically have a physical location where customers can go to drop off or pick up their mail and packages. Some Mailboxes businesses also offer online ordering and shipping services. Many Mailboxes businesses are independently owned and operated, though there are some national and international chains as well. In order to start a Mailboxes business, one must obtain a business license and insurance, as well as the necessary equipment. It is also important to find a good location for the business, preferably one with high foot traffic.
A private mailbox business offers entrepreneurs a low-cost opportunity to get started in the retail business world. For a few hundred dollars, you can lease space in a shopping center and start offering customers a convenient way to receive their mail and packages. In this section, we’ll take a look at three reasons why starting a private mailbox business is a great idea.
As we mentioned above, one of the biggest advantages of starting a private mailbox business is the low cost of entry. When you compare the start-up costs of a private mailbox business to other retail businesses, it’s clear that this is an extremely affordable option. In addition to the low initial investment, ongoing costs are also very reasonable. You’ll need to pay rent for your space, of course, but other than that your only significant expenses will be for supplies like envelopes and packing materials.
Another reason to start a private mailbox business is that it provides a great source of recurring revenue. Once you have customers signed up for your service, they’ll typically stay with you for a long time. This means that you can count on a steady stream of income week after week, month after month. This makes budgeting and cash flow planning much easier than it would be with a business that has more volatile sales.
Running a private mailbox business doesn’t require a lot of time or effort on your part. Once you have everything set up, you can pretty much set it and forget it. Of course, you’ll need to check in from time to time to make sure everything is running smoothly, but overall this is a very hands-off business. This makes it an ideal choice for entrepreneurs who want to start a business but don’t have a lot of time to devote to it.
Starting a private mailbox business is a great way to get started in the retail world without spending a lot of money or taking on too much risk. If you’re looking for an affordable opportunity with minimal time requirements and good potential for growth, this might be just the right business for you!
Are you looking for a business opportunity that allows you to be your own boss? A private mailbox company may be the perfect option for you. With a low startup cost and high potential for profit, this business is a great way to get started in your own small business. Here’s what you need to know about starting a private mailbox business.
When you’re thinking about starting your own business, it’s important to define your niche. A niche is a specific target market for your product or service.
For example, if you’re starting a private mailbox business, your niche might be small businesses in your town who need a physical address for their business. Defining your niche will help you focus your marketing efforts and attract the right customers. It will also make it easier to stand out from the competition. There are a few key steps to defining your niche.
First, think about who your ideal customer is. What are their needs and wants? What do they value? Once you’ve identified your ideal customer, research your competition. How are they serving their customers? What could you do differently? Finally, define what makes you unique. What can you offer that no one else can? When you’ve answered these questions, you’ll have a clear understanding of your niche and what it takes to succeed in it.
Before you start your own private mailboxes business, it’s essential that you create a comprehensive business plan . This will give you a roadmap to follow as you launch your business, and it will help you secure funding from investors or lenders.
Your business plan should begin with an executive summary, which gives an overview of your business concept and objectives.
Next, you’ll need to describe your target market and how you plan to reach them. Then, you’ll need to detail your products or services, as well as your pricing strategy. Finally, you’ll need to outline your marketing and sales plans.
By taking the time to create a detailed business plan, you’ll increase your chances of success as you launch your private mailboxes business.
Before you start a Private Mailboxes business, you’ll need to find the right source of funding. There are a few options available to small businesses, including loans, venture capitalists, and angel investors. Each option has its own set of pros and cons, so it’s important to choose the right one for your specific needs.
One option is to take out a loan from a bank or other financial institution. This can be a good option if you have good credit and a solid business plan. However, loans can be difficult to obtain, and you’ll need to repay them with interest.
Another option is to seek funding from venture capitalists or angel investors. This can be a great way to get the capital you need to start your business. However, it can be difficult to find investors who are willing to invest in your business. You’ll also need to give up a portion of ownership in your company in exchange for their investment.
Once you’ve chosen the right source of funding for your business, you can get started on planning and launching your Private Mailboxes business. With the right planning and execution, you can make your business a success.
Before you can open your doors for business, there are a few important things you need to take care of. First, you will need to obtain the necessary permits and registrations from your local government. This will vary depending on your location, but you will need to at least obtain a business license.
In addition, you will need to register your business with the U.S. Postal Service. Once you have taken care of these requirements, you will be able to start operating your private mailbox business.
Starting your own private mailbox business can be a great way to earn extra income or even start a new career. But where should you set up shop? The most important factor to consider is foot traffic. Look for a location that gets a lot of foot traffic, such as near a busy intersection or in a shopping center.
Also, make sure the location is easily accessible and has plenty of parking. Another key consideration is the competition. Avoid areas where there are already several established private mailbox businesses. Instead, look for areas where you can be the only game in town.
With careful planning, you can find the perfect location for your new business venture.
Starting a private mailbox business is a great way to earn extra income or even make a living. However, there are a few things you will need to get started.
First, you will need a space to rent out as your office. This can be a small room in your home or even a rented storage unit. Next, you will need to purchase some supplies, such as boxes, packing materials, and postage stamps.
Finally, you will need to set up an account with the US Postal Service so that you can start accepting mail. With these simple steps, you can be on your way to starting a successful private mailbox business.
Before you can start your own private mailboxes business, you need to hire and train staff. The first step is to find employees who are trustworthy and have experience handling mail. You will also need to provide training on how to use the equipment and software.
Once your staff is up to speed, you can start marketing your business to potential customers. Advertise in local newspapers and online, and make sure to list your business in the Yellow Pages. You can also distribute flyers in high-traffic areas such as grocery stores and libraries.
With a little hard work, you can soon start reaping the benefits of owning your own private mailboxes business.
Before you start a private mailbox business, you need to do your research and develop a marketing plan. The type of customers you are trying to attract will dictate the marketing strategies you use.
For example, if you want to attract businesses, you will need to market your services to office managers or human resources directors. You can do this by sending direct mailings, placing ads in business publications, or attending trade shows.
If you want to attract individual consumers, you will need to use different marketing tactics. You can place ads in local newspapers or on online classifieds websites. You can also distribute flyers in neighborhoods or apartment complexes.
Whatever marketing strategies you decide to use, make sure you are targeting the right audience.
Mailboxes are a necessity for any business. They provide a safe and secure place to store important documents, packages, and other items. But how much does it cost to start a mailboxes business? While the initial investment may seem high, the potential earnings make starting a mailboxes business a great option for entrepreneurs.

There are numerous factors to consider when choosing a mailbox for your business, such as security features, size, and price. Once you have chosen the perfect mailbox for your business, you can begin installing them in your chosen location.

Are you looking for ways to find customers for your Private Mailboxes business? If so, you’re in luck! There are a number of great techniques that you can use to drum up interest in your business. In this section, we’ll discuss a few of the best methods for finding new customers. We’ll also provide some tips on how to keep them coming back. So read on if you want to learn more!
One of the most important steps in starting a private mailbox business is to define your target market. Without a clear understanding of who your ideal customer is, it will be difficult to find them and convince them to use your services.
To get started, think about what kinds of people are likely to need a private mailbox. For example, you might target busy professionals who need a secure place to receive their mail, or seniors who live in remote areas and have trouble getting to the post office.
Once you have a good idea of who your target market is, you can start finding ways to reach them. You might advertise in local newspapers or online, or put up flyers in high-traffic areas.
By taking the time to define your target market and develop a marketing strategy, you will be well on your way to filling your private mailboxes with happy customers.
Marketing your private mailbox service can be a challenge, but with the right plan in place, you can reach your target market and start bringing in new customers.
To get started, create a list of potential marketing channels to reach your target market. This might include online advertising, direct mail, or even networking at local business events.
Once you have a list of potential channels, research each one to determine the best way to reach your target market. For example, if you’re targeting small businesses, online advertising might be more effective than direct mail.
Once you’ve research your options, develop a budget and create a timeline for your marketing campaign. Finally, launch your campaign and track your results so you can adjust your strategy as needed.
By following these steps, you can create a marketing plan that will help you find new customers for your private mailbox business.
A private mailbox can offer a great service for customers looking for a reliable way to receive their mail. By building a web presence for your private mailbox business, you can reach a wider audience and attract new customers.
Start by creating a website that provides information about your services and price plans. Be sure to include photos and testimonials from satisfied customers. Then, create social media accounts on popular platforms like Facebook and Twitter. Use these platforms to share updates about your business and special offers for new customers.
Finally, consider running online ads to reach even more potential customers. By following these tips, you can build a strong web presence for your private mailbox business and attract new customers.
You can use both organic and paid social media to find customers for your private mailboxes business. Organic social media refers to the free content and postings you make on your own social media platforms, such as on your Facebook business page or Twitter feed. Paid social media, on the other hand, refers to the ads and sponsored posts you pay to have placed on social media platforms. Both types of social media can be effective in driving traffic to your website and generating leads for your business.
Organic social media is a great way to connect with potential customers and create a relationship with them. When you post interesting and relevant content on your organic social media channels, people will take notice and be more likely to visit your website or contact you for more information. In addition, organic social media is a great way to build brand awareness for your business. As more people see your name and learn about what you do, they will be more likely to remember you when they need your services.
Paid social media is also an effective way to reach potential customers. When you place ads on social media, you can specifically target people who are interested in your product or service. For example, if you sell private mailboxes, you can target people who live in apartment buildings or who have recently moved to a new address. Paid social media allows you to laser-focus your marketing efforts and connect with potential customers who are most likely to use your services.
You’ve started a small business renting out private mailboxes and you want to let your community know. Where should you advertise?
Look no further than your local publications! Newspapers, magazines, and even flyers that come in the mailbox are all great places to spread the word about your business. When placing an ad, make sure to include important information like your business hours, price, and location. You may even want to offer a special discount for new customers.
Keep your ad short and sweet, and you’re sure to attract some new business in no time.
There are many ways to get involved with local community organizations. You can join a chamber of commerce or business association, attend local business events, or even get involved with non-profit organizations.
Each of these options has its own set of advantages and disadvantages, so it’s important to choose the one that best fits your needs. For example, chamber of commerce events can be a great way to meet potential customers, but they can also be expensive.
Business associations, on the other hand, often offer lower-cost membership options and may provide access to a wider range of potential customers. Non-profit organizations can also be a great resource for finding customers, but it’s important to make sure that you’re comfortable promoting your business to this type of audience.

Take a look at the city of Cheboksary from above.
Museum of Beer.
Cheboksary is only 400 miles east of Moscow. With half a million inhabitants, the city is the capital of the Republic of Chuvashia. Cheboksary is located on the Volga River and is a hotpot of both Russian and Chuvash cultures. A hop flower and its leaves are depicted on Chuvashia’s coat of arms - around 90 percent of Russia’s hops are grown in the region, which has a long tradition of brewing. In ancient times, picking hops was an important part of life. “The Chuvash people used to say, there are as many women as there are types of beer,” local tour guide Lyudmila Ilmenderova explains.
Home brewing was widespread in the area and families passed recipes through the generations. Thanks to this beer culture and the unique climate, Chuvashia established itself as the main hop growing region in the Soviet Union. By the end of the eighties, local state farms grew up to 95 percent of all Soviet hops that were used not only for beer production, but also cosmetics and food.
In downtown Cheboksary there is the Museum of Beer. It was opened in 1997 by the Bouquet of Chuvashia brewing company. Here you can find 19th century beer bottles, beer coasters, and old brand labels. Russian brewers from the 19th century took great care when producing the beverage and only used the finest ingredients. Every manufacturer used their own branded packaging and often emblazoned their name on the bottles.
Authentic Chuvash beer is still brewed, 120 miles away from Cheboksary in the village of Komsomolskoe - especially for the museum. You can try it there!

The monument to Ostap Bender and Kisa Vorobyaninov.
Merchant Yefremov Boulevard is the main pedestrian stretch in Cheboksary. The man who the street is named after, Prokopiy Yefremov, was the richest tradesman and philanthropist in Chuvashia in the 19th century. Dotted along it are kiosks selling souvenirs and interesting local monuments.
One of them is the monument to Ostap Bender and Kisa Vorobyaninov, the protagonists from the satirical books The Twelve Chairs and The Little Golden Calf by Soviet authors Ilya Ilf and Yevgeni Petrov. The Twelve Chairs is about a pair of merry characters - Ostap Bender and Kisa Vorobyaninov - who embark on the journey across the USSR to hunt diamonds sewn into the upholstery of chairs that were sold off at auction. There are several monuments dedicated to the famous book in Russia and the CIS - the statue in Cheboksary is perhaps the most well-known though.
Where to find the monument: Merchant Yefremov Boulevard, 4.
Alley of Love.
Like Bubblegum Alley in California and the custom of leaving notes on the wall of Juliet's house in Verona, the tradition of turning spots in the city into public artworks exists in Cheboksary. Take the Alley of Love for example, one of the most romantic places in the city. It attracts lovers, newlyweds, and anyone who wants to tell the world about their feelings. They leave notes on the white fence of the alley and along the path leading to it. There’s also an embankment with stunning views of the Volga River.
Where to find it: Mosckovskaya embankment, 1a.
'Eternal Glory to the Heroes' monument in Pobedy Park.
One of the best ways to observe the city is by taking a ride on the ferris wheel in the bizarrely named The 500th Anniversary of Cheboksary Park (Maksima Gorkogo Avenue, 2). During the summer, guests can enjoy outdoor swimming pools here, along with numerous beaches both in and outside the city. In winter, it’s just a pleasant place for taking a stroll.
You can view the entire cityscape from the hilltop in Pobedy Park (Victory Park), dedicated to the victory in the Great Patriotic War. It’s located on the high bank of the Volga River.
Where to find it: Zoyi Yakovlevoi street, 54.
The oldest prison in Russia.
Constructed in the 16th century under the order of Tsar Ivan the Terrible, the prison was rebuilt several times. The first building was made of wood and burnt down before a new prison was erected in stone in 1646. The country’s second oldest building, Vvedensky Cathedral, was completed three years later and sits just in front of the jail. Both incredibly are still in operation today.
Vvedensky Cathedral.
Chuvash Prison was renamed Cheboksary’s Jail Castle in the 19th century. The Vladimirskiy trakt is nearby: The road from Moscow via Vladimir, Cheboksary, and Kazan was used by convicts and reaches as far as Siberia. So the castle was used to lock up prisoners overnight - or for longer - before they continued east. Today the prison is called IZ-21/1 and 10 of the 39 wards are original, but it’s probably best not to try and take a look inside...
Where to find it: Konstantina Ivanova Street, 22A.
