Of the 15,000 members represented by PPAI, 116 industry companies earned a coveted spot on PPAI’s annual Greatest Companies To Work For list. We’re proud to announce that Magellan Promotions has been honored with this title for the third consecutive year.

As our industry expands with the growing number of companies, this recognition affirms the importance of strong workplace culture and employee well-being. This achievement carries great pride because it is a direct testament to the team culture at Magellan Promotions. The award is based on direct feedback from our team, their confidence in Magellan’s future success, our company values, and the benefits we provide.

This recognition follows another exciting accomplishment: being named one of BizTimes’ 2025 Future 50 winners. Collectively, these awards highlight Magellan’s commitment to excellence in expertise, partnership, innovation, and courage.

Michael Wolaver, Captain and Founder of Magellan Promotions, reflected on this achievement:

“We’re incredibly grateful to have received this award for the third year in a row. Our culture and core values are at the heart of everything we do, and I couldn’t be prouder of our team. They live out our mission every day,  with each other and with our partners. This recognition is a reflection of their passion and commitment.”

Variable Data Best Practices

  • At the quoting stage of your project, please let us know how many fields of variable data your piece will have as this can affect pricing.
  • Data should be provided to us as an Excel spreadsheet with only the applicable data included.
  • Verbiage for variable data fields on artwork file should match up exactly with data fields on spreadsheet.
  • Spacing on artwork must allow for longest data entries. We recommend that your designer tests this in advance to confirm that the fields in the design can fit your longest pieces of data.

Postage Permits

We are happy to mail using a client’s USPS non-profit number. Here are a few best practices for this to go smoothly. Let our team know up front on the project so we can make sure to get the information we need right away. 

While our mail house does prefer to use their permit number for the mailing, we can use the client’s permit, If using their permit number, ensure there is enough postage to cover the mailing.

The information we need to in order to use a client’s nonprofit number includes the following:

  • CRID (customer registration ID)
  • Non-Profit Authorization Number (with USPS, not their nonprofit number for the university)
  • Non-profit indicia
  • Return address that is on file with USPS for the non-profit authorization number
  • Permit number

Formatting the Mailing List

Our account team will advise on specific requirements for your project’s mailing list.  We generally recommend these best practices to format the mailing list:
  • Send your data in a spreadsheet, saving it in the comma-separated values (CSV) format
  • International addresses must be separated from domestic addresses
  • Domestic addresses should at least contain data fields for “first name”, “last name”, “address 1”, “address 2”, “city”, “state” and “ZIP code”
