To decide if a mailing is promotional, ask whether the main purpose is to stimulate activity of the business or organisation through:
– Promoting the sale or use of products or services?
– Promoting the organisation’s cause?
– Making an offer, invitation or promotional claim about the organisation’s products, services or “cause”?

If the answer is “yes” to any of these questions, then the “communication purpose” is promotional.
