What do people think of pennypost?
I love pennypost! We plan on using the app to send Thank You postcards from our wedding weekend.
Receiving a postcard picture of his first grandchildren was one of the best gifts my Dad has ever gotten!
Honestly, this app is brilliant. We live in a digital world, communicate digitally, work digitally--there's never anything to hold except your phone. pennypost brings us back to the physical world.
I love sending pennyposts of my friends' kids (what up, Isaac!) to them and then seeing those pennyposts on the fridge or at their office. I love receiving pennyposts and carrying them around in my pocket.
It's seems like such a simple concept, but once you receive one, you'll fall in love.
In a world feeling more and more connected but less and less personal,
pennypost is a great way to connect with people on a real level. I love using
it as a tool to send to clients after a visit or event: it's a thank you note, memory
and keepsake all in one. I've even sent one as a thank you for a job interview! I got the job.
For me Pennypost offers two major benefits. One being that many of the places I travel to often do not offer postcards.The second being that I am able to share images of my visits that are more relevant to my experiences versus a generic stock photo. A bonus is that I also don't need to bother locating a post office in a strange city or village.
Pennypost solves a couple problems for me: I never sent postcards a while traveling (it was too tricky in the end), I could keep my older relatives who like mail better in my thoughts far easier (like a physical version of Snapchat), and for work events, it was super easy to a post photos of events to social media AND send them in person to a list of supporters as physical thank yous right from the event (I run programs at a museum where immediate community outreach is critical). I could even customize photos to certain stakeholders - so useful!!!
I haven't found an app that really aggregates addresses safely and effectively like this app does. I like pennypost for work and for personal life. Apps that can do something for me in both those spheres are the ones I always keep. Totally worth it!
I used this app to send friends and family post cards while I was on a business trip in India and on vacation in London. They came out beautifully and was much cheaper and faster to use the the app rather than send it from the country.
Set up my account and sent my first Penny Post in a matter of minutes using the janky WiFi of Bogota international airport right before boarding a flight. What a fun and easy way to share your memories with family and friends!
