What you get in the SFDC Managed Package
Custom fields created at the lead, contact, and activity level
Postal Touches = count of items sent
Lead Cost/Contact Cost = total cost of items sent to that lead/contact
Cost Per Touch = average cost of items sent to that lead/contact
Report that leverages those custom fields to show you spending trends for accounts/contacts
Account Level and can be sorted by Account
Includes CPT, Postal Touches, Contact Cost, Total Touches, Total Cost
Triggers: Ability to trigger off of Salesforce based on tasks events or opportunities
types: opportunity, task, event
When an opportunity is not closed-won and then becomes closed-won then trigger
NOTE: Tasks get created in SFDC when a recipient accepts a Postal (Postal Queued) and when the Postal has been delivered (Postal Delivered).

Users will need User permissions in Postal AND a Salesforce seat
