The Evolution of Receiving Mail

As a freelancer, you know the tricks of the trade: flexibility is your middle name and time is your most precious asset. So let’s talk about how you receive your post. Yes, really, post. Because even in this digital world, a lot still comes in on paper. Especially the important stuff.
So, what is smart? Stuck with that old-fashioned P.O.box or upgrade to a modern Postbox from PriPost? Spoiler alert: that upgrade is a no-brainer. Here’s why.

The Good Old P.O. Box

Think of those red boxes at the post office that you have to sprint to before they close the doors. They’re doing their job, sort of. But as a self-employed person who runs from place to place, picking up mail is just as difficult as finding a sock in the laundry. It takes time, it’s clunky, and it feels a bit like 1995.

The limitations:

  • Travel time
    Who has time for an extra trip to the post office?
    And that trip is getting longer and longer because more and more PO box locations are disappearing.

  • Waiting
    Post offices and their opening hours… Not really compatible with the 24-hour economy.

  • Paper mess
    Really, we’re all trying to live a little greener, right?

  • No digital integration
    The P.O.box doesn’t offer a direct way to integrate physical mail with your digital workflow.

  • Delay
    Important documents can be delayed if you’re not able to collect your mail in a timely manner. For example, because you are traveling or on the road…

  • Old-fashioned
    Come on, we do everything with our phones these days!
