Leading U.S. Small and Medium Businesses
Optimize Sending with the pbSmartPostageTM Online
Platform
Pitney Bowes Inc. (NYSE:PBI), a global technology company that
provides innovative products and solutions to power commerce, today
announced the winners of its inaugural Sending Excellence Awards.
The Pitney Bowes Sending Excellence Awards recognize small and
medium businesses in the U.S. that demonstrate best practices and
innovation in shipping and mailing to drive their business.
The pbSmartPostage online postage solution gives businesses,
from small home offices to multi-location enterprises, a
cloud-based platform to consolidate and streamline their shipping
and mailing operations to reduce costs and maximize productivity.
The pbSmartPostage platform has been redesigned to be easier to use
and to provide comprehensive reporting tools and flexible payment
options. In an independent, head-to-head comparison conducted by
Performance Research and Design, the newest version of the
pbSmartPostage solution ranked highest in accuracy and usability
scores, and was the clear favorite – by a two to one margin – when
compared to two other internet postage offerings, including
Stamps.com.
“Today, more than ever, shipping and mailing power commerce,”
said Mark Shearer, EVP and President, Pitney Bowes Global SMB
Solutions. “We’d like to congratulate the winners of the Pitney
Bowes Sending Excellence Awards. These companies are setting a new
standard for small and medium businesses in the U.S. by optimizing
their sending to boost their business and deliver greater value to
their customers. Today’s shipping and mailing environment can be
highly complex and overwhelming for small and medium businesses,
but these companies have delivered. From sending healthcare records
to American flags, they are powering their business with innovative
shipping and mailing technology.”
