You vs. Paper
If you’re a mid-sized organization, chances are you still rely on paper. Medium-sized companies remain the most paper-heavy compared to small and large firms, with education and professional services the most paper-intensive markets. How does your paper use stack up? The webinar will help you figure out how you compare to your peers.
Studies send a clear message that business people still want to use paper sometimes. Perhaps your interest isn’t so much in eliminating paper altogether, but in finding a better way to manage both print and digital documents. A variety of causes hinder progress in most industries, and the webinar looks at hurdles like these:
- System costs
- Preference for paper
- IT resources
- Time constraints
- Lack of training
