The first run of BEECN postcards were mailed to every household in Portland in early December of 2012 and mentioned in a December 11, 2012 PBEM press release announcing the debut of the BEECN program. The total mailing cost was approximately $60,000. However, as the postcards landed in residential mail the same time as seasonal junk mail and holiday catalogs, the postcard was widely reported to have met the same fate of those mailers: tossed in a recycling bin with barely a passing glance. It did not make the impression hoped for.
