Flexible entry
Smartphone scan via the guided Postnaro workflow
Suitable for pilot operations, first customers and low mail volume. An entry solution — not the preferred long-term setup as volume grows.
This page explains the potential calculator customer scenarios: how growth can develop, which marketing measures are possible and what operational workload different sizes may create — without customer, timing or advertising guarantees.
Postnaro shows not only possible revenues, but also the processes, technology and capacity behind professional location operations.
Non-binding model calculation: customer numbers, build-up times, mail volume, workload and advertising results depend on many factors. Values are based on editable assumptions and are not a customer, revenue, profit, timing or advertising-success guarantee.
Selectable customer numbers are not forecasts, but comparison stages for different development phases. They help compare effects on tariff revenue, add-ons, mail volume, working time, platform fees, operating costs, technology and cover arrangements.

Supra-regional scale scenario
Postnaro model stage
Scale scenario: This size typically requires standardised processes, cover arrangements and a resilient team and location structure.
Acquisition comes from central Postnaro measures, local partner activity and optional paid campaigns — not from a fixed customer formula.
Central Postnaro measures
Local measures by the location partner
Paid measures
Effectiveness depends among other things on region, competition, search demand, audience, creatives, prices and conversion rate.
Launch marketing, ongoing brand work, optional Marketing Plus and local partner measures should be viewed separately.
For approved new locations Postnaro plans standardised launch marketing. Scope, duration and channels are set bindingly before location launch.
A location partner can provide additional marketing budget. This budget is not paid out freely, but used for approved centrally managed or jointly aligned location campaigns.
A higher budget can enable additional reach and more campaign data. It does not guarantee a specific number of enquiries or customers, or a fixed time to reach a scenario.
Optional budget participation by Postnaro
Optional budget participation by Postnaro is prepared internally but not currently enabled. There is no automatic doubling or blanket subsidy of partner budgets.
Calculated growth path based on your assumptions — separate from the financial potential calculator.
Advertising budget cannot reliably be converted into a fixed customer number. Click costs, enquiry quality, conversion rate, contract completion, cancellations and churn all matter.
Postnaro evaluates campaigns by qualified enquiries and completed customer contracts — not solely by clicks or reach.

Campaigns are created centrally or to central standards, attributed measurably to locations and reviewed regularly — without unnecessarily sending personal data to ad platforms.
Smartphone entry, recommended scanner operations and scaled device classes — without mandating a specific device.

standard
Document scanner with automatic feeder
Recommended standard: Ricoh ScanSnap iX1600 — compact, suitable for small and medium locations, upload into Postnaro triage. Final technical integration is only described as complete once production-approved.
scaled
100-sheet network or production scanners
Device class e.g. Brother ADS-4900W, Epson WorkForce DS-870 or comparable approved alternatives — for batch scans, multiple operators and later QR workflows. Recommendations are not mandatory.
From arrival to secure customer delivery: guided capture, triage, review and logging.
01
Item arrives at the approved location
Personal acceptance — not a public letterbox.
02
Logged in the partner dashboard
Arrival and basic data are logged traceably.
03
Digitisation via smartphone or scanner
Guided workflow — no uncontrolled photo-gallery use.
04
Protected triage
The scan first lands in a protected interim stage.
05
Controlled customer matching
Recipient and customer are matched under review.
06
Quality check and release
No automatic delivery of unchecked documents.
07
Secure storage in the customer area
No public folders, no uncontrolled ordinary email delivery.
08
Automatic customer notification
The customer is informed about the process.
09
Audit-ready logging
The process remains traceably documented.
Customer count alone does not determine workload. Mail volume, scans, forwarding, support and automation level matter more.
Time values are Postnaro model assumptions. They will be updated after operational pilot use with real process data.
Available working capacity
For the full operational capacity of one person. Default assumption: 8 hours per working day.
In this model, 8 hours per working day correspond to a full-time capacity. Breaks, leave, illness, cover, administration and operational peaks can reduce the actually available operating time.
Available working time: 168 hr per month
Calculation: available hours per working day × working days per month.
Non-binding capacity assumption — not a staffing or contract commitment.
No competitor customer figures are shown publicly until a verifiable primary source has been reviewed and approved. Postnaro customer scenarios remain comparison stages — not market statistics.
A higher budget alone does not replace clear positioning, reliable processes or convincing customer service.
