At the Angus Beef Bulletin and Angus Beef Bulletin EXTRA, we strive to offer editorial content that helps you as cattlemen increase your efficiency and your profit margin. There are two sides to the profit equation — increasing income and decreasing costs.
We also have those goals. You may not know the costs of publishing, and why should you? Postage is a major, and obviously necessary, expense. However, there is a simple way to decrease our postage cost and ensure more timely delivery to you.
