Pitney Bowes: The Real Impact Postage Savings Can Bring to Your Bottom Line - May 8th at 2:00 pm
You may be presorting yourself. And most of the time it works. But how does seeing more positive impact to your bottom line while improving the client experience sound? Production may be reluctant to move away from traditional mail methods of preparing and presenting mail, but there are alternatives that can cut cost and complexity, especially in these days of rising postage, transportation, paper, and labor costs.
What if you could streamline mailing processes, increase postage savings, and reduce labor hours spent on menial tasks. Take on larger mail projects that you were hesitant to consider before. Provide your clients with cost certainty. Sound intriguing?
Look no further than this session. Attend and hear more about:
- How commingling differs from presorting and strategies to help you determine which to use and when
- What offering commingling adds to your value-added services (HINT: More $$)
- Where you’ll see real savings and what you can do with them
- How postage savings can improve the client experience
- What to look for when considering outsourcing
