Thank you!

Please pause this postal code for now. I looked in our reporting and don't
see any opportunities or clients from this postal code, either from paid or
in general.

Joey - let's connect with Tim and Dennis when Tim's back to get a final
verdict on this postal code. But if it's 1.5 hours away and Dennis says
it's hard to staff, I think it's safe to remove it.  It looks like it was
originally on the list Dennis provided as West St Paul. Maybe we can work
with him to get a different postal code that represents that place better.

Sincerely,
