The information and postcards in Junk Mail Solution work wonders. My mother was on every mailing list imaginable. Thanks to Junk Mail Solution, she now receives almost none. And stopping the junk mail was so easy! I'd recommend the book to anyone who wants to reduce the time spent each day sorting through mail. And you'll save a tree as well.

Junk Mail Solution explains how we wind up on so many solicitation lists and shows how to get off those rolls. The greatest value of this book is in the signs and pre-addressed post cards. There are signs to place near the telephones to remind you to utter the nine magic words. And there are cards to mail to the 26 list maintenance companies and list associations.

Of course, if you are a direct mailer or telemarketer, you may learn to breach some of these defenses. :)

Jackie Plusch is a professional organizer. She established the Clutter Cutter, a service to help individuals and groups manage space, time and materials. She soon discovered her clients were wasting hours handling unwanted mail and telephone calls.

As a publisher, author of 113 books (including revisions and foreign-language editions) and over 500 magazine articles, I like books that provide solutions without wasting my time with padding. .....

Don't waste your time and money buying this book. It is seriously out of date. Many of the companies listed have moved or gone out of business. She has tear-out postcards for mailing to list distributors or consumer databases. I had to double check every address on the internet, and many had changed. The best internet source for up-to-date business addresses seems to be the Better Business Bureau (BBB).

I thought this book would tell you the inner workings of the consumer mailing list industry, but all she says is that there are 50,000 different mailing lists out there, and you can get off of some of them by sending out the postcards attached in the book.

Buy another book instead of this one.
