Regardless of your unique business requirements, DANTOM has the ability to create a flawlessly executed document that generates a response.
DANTOM Self Mailers
As postage costs continue to rise, lower-cost products can shield your bottom line from experiencing a negative impact. DANTOM Systems offers a range of self-mailing products that are a lower price point than a traditional statement or letter and envelope.
While not appropriate for all types of customer communication, self-mailers from DANTOM are secure and comply with applicable laws and regulations. You can rest assured that you will remain compliant while positively impacting your bottom line.
Multiple sizes and types are available, ensuring there is a product to meet your unique and specific communication needs. Products range in size from a double postcard bi-fold, up to an 8.5" x 17" tri-fold. Multiple paper stocks are available to further customize your communications.
Beyond cost, another benefit is the products’ relative novelty. Most receivables documents are not sent in a self-mailer format. Therefore, natural human curiosity causes many customers to open a self-mailer they might have otherwise ignored – enabling you to save money while boosting your open rate!
As the industry strives to minimize the impact of ever-rising postage rates, adding self-mailer products into the mix can boost open rates and generate positive bottom line results.
DANTOM eCertified
Electronic return receipts and signatures are transmitted to your software platform to update at the account level. The account level updates can be set to trigger workflow actions. For example, an account could be placed in a dialer campaign as soon as the return receipt is received. The net result enables you to collect money faster and at a lower cost.
Product Details
Documents to be sent eCertified are identified by letter code. A tracking bar also is printed on each letter. It contains the service level code as well as a unique mail piece identifier.
The Daily Certified Return File is uploaded to the DANTOM SFTP site daily, using the same process as other DANTOM daily reports. The USPS provides the signature file weekly and it also is uploaded to the DANTOM SFTP site for download.

Electronic Delivery
eNotice
As e-mailing statements and receivables letters increases in usage, many industry leaders are turning to a trusted collection letter and statements partner, DANTOM Systems, to implement their e-mail receivables letter strategy. eNotice provides functionality that is specifically designed to meet the unique security and regulatory compliance requirements of receivables related communication.
Avoid inappropriate disclosure
Since e-mail is not a secure method of communication, sending information that is not encrypted could easily be accessed by someone other than your customer. DANTOM Systems sends all e-mailed statements or receivables letters as an encrypted PDF. The body of the e-mail notes that a letter regarding a personal business matter is attached and should be opened only by the customer. A shared password, such as date of birth or ZIP code, is required to open the PDF.
Customer opt-in
It is recommended that you receive recorded verbal, electronic or written permission BEFORE any statements or receivables letters are sent by e-mail. DANTOM eNotice can provide an integrated opt-in system. DANTOM eNotice also automatically offers the customer the ability to opt-out of e-mail communication and retains a record of this for you.
Monitoring e-mail delivery
eNotice automatically monitors e-mailed statements or receivables letters for bounces, ignored e-mails and customer opens. Similar to NCOA hits, DANTOM updates your system with invalid e-mail addresses. The system has a user-defined option to mail a printed letter if your e-mail should bounce or be ignored. You can rest assured that all communication is received, enabling you to remain compliant with communication requirements.

Of course, before beginning any new communication method with customers, you should consult your attorney for legal advice.
