The Letter Guide is a 350mm ruler that demonstrates the new PiP mail pricing categories.

Philippe Masson, Neopost's marketing director, said: ''From our survey of SMEs and large corporations, we're concerned that many businesses are still unprepared for PiP, even at this late stage.
At Neopost we are committed to making sure that our customers are ready for PiP.
Along with our telephone support line, we are offering our customers the opportunity to purchase the Letter Guide." He added: "At a cost of GBP3.99 plus VAT, customers can physically check and measure their mail before posting.
The aim of the Letter Guide is to help our customers quickly identify the correct category a mail item falls in to following the implementation of PiP.
In the last month thousands of businesses have bought the ruler, with no indication of sales slowing down just yet." The Letter Guide is claimed to be easy to use and store and is said to be cheaper than competing products on the market, for assisting with PiP postage calculation.
