There have been many changes over the last few years, not the least of which are the channels we use for communication. And while there has been a proliferation of digital options, hard copy will never completely go away. In fact, as it becomes a subset of all communications, hard copy shipments become more important - and carry more weight - than ever before.
In this episode of The Sourcing Hero podcast, Host Kelly Barner welcomes Jane Friddell. Jane is a Vertical Market Manager at Pitney Bowes, a tech company best known for its postage meters and other mailing equipment and services.

- Which new communications practices/habits will fade away and which are here to stay
- The challenges that exist for workers that have to communicate in hard copy with companies, customers, and suppliers
- The importance of hard copy tracking and audit capabilities in a data-driven world
