How “going paperless” can help your business reduce DSO, improve customer communications and more
More than 60% of businesses believe that e-Delivery is going to be the main source of customer communications within the next five years. However, most companies still use print mail as the primary or only way they communicate with customers.
E-Delivery doesn’t have to be complicated or overturn your whole business process. It can be used along with print communications or just for specific types of communication.

Now most organizations—and customers—still want both paper and email delivery options. Finding the right mix of delivery methods, print and digital, for your company can meaningfully impact your business by improving customer satisfaction, increasing business productivity, and saving on mailing costs.
