Our mailing houses are located in Bedford, just 50 miles north of London and most of our clients are London based. One of our account managers will be in London most days.
The main benefit of our mailing houses location is lower overheads and more rapid access to the motorway network and international airports. Mailing houses in London may be more expensive because they are in London, whereas we are far enough away from London to keep overheads down, but near enough to be easy to visit.
Also the notorious London transport issues can cause delays when delivering materials to mailing houses in London, wheras BTB Mailflight has both the A1 and the M1 within a 15 minute drive, and the UK's second largest city, Birmingham, is also not too far away.
Some of our London based clients had always used mailing houses in London as they like to have their mailing houses close by. However we have managed to convince them that our mailing houses in Bedford really are not too far away and are easy to visit. As well as quick access to our two sites in Bedford from the A1 and the M1 there is a fast train from St Pancras that takes just 35 minutes to Bedford and we are just 3 miles from Bedford train station. Also our Account Managers are typically in London very often anyway if they want a meeting. So when we put this argument to clients, as well as lower mailing house prices and a promise of unrivalled client service, it is quite compelling. No longer does having mailing houses in London really matter.
