Go Paperless Today!
Can it really be that easy to minimize unnecessary prints, scan existing documents, and go paperless in your office? Document management says the answer is yes. Here are four ways to start going paperless today!
#1: Analyze your print habits.
The best way to start going paperless is to understand what your print habits look like at the moment. Once you know what you're printing, how often, and how much, it's much easier to choose the solutions that will address your company's unique strengths and weaknesses.
#2: Start scanning right away.
Is there a document on your desk right now? Don't file it the old-fashioned way--start scanning now and make that document the first step toward a paperless office. If you scan all incoming documents from this point forward, you're well on your way to cost savings of all kinds.
#3: Work with your employees.
Going paperless is truly a team effort. Make sure your employees are "in the know" about everything, from updated processes to printing procedures to incentives that will make them excited to go paperless.
#4: Use apps and software instead of printing.
Everyone uses apps already--why not put those apps to work? Instead of printing documents to share, collaborate on, or distribute, consider utilizing apps and software that help you communicate without waste.
These tips are a great start, but with document management, you can get even closer to a paperless office. Contact us today!
