Indianapolis (Sept. 19, 2001) - eTapestry.com, a Web-based donor database management software company, will provide customers with quick-turnaround direct mail services through a partnership with Zairmail, Inc., an Internet mail-on-demand company.

Zairmail can shrink the printing turnaround time from the industry average of a few weeks to one or two days. Zairmail allows senders to compose, submit and preview their job online in minutes, with delivery in one or two business days. Zairmail accepts electronic documents from the Web, routes them to local production facilities near where they need to be delivered and then automatically prints, folds, inserts and presents them to the US Postal Service for delivery.

"Direct mail is a key resource for nonprofits in raising funds for their core missions," said eTapestry CEO Jay Love. "We're finding that nonprofits want to shrink that turnaround time more than ever to successfully piggyback on national news or events. Zairmail allows our clients to accomplish this while using a Web-based system."

By partnering with eTapestry, the leading Web-based donor database management system, Zairmail gains access to the nonprofit fundraising world.

"eTapestry has the knowledge of the nonprofit world and the Internet and that's been married with Zairmail's knowledge of direct mail and the Internet," said Zairmail CEO Wilson Zehr. "It's a great union for nonprofit organizations because it allows them to combine two of the most effective and efficient ways to raise money."
