CECB Strives to Move Toward Being Paperless
CECB is going “green” or “paperless” by using more electronic delivery and storage of documents.We know that for the near term this means “less paper”, and we will not completely eliminate paper, but increased use of electronic documents offers many advantages for both us and our clients.
“Paperless” saves trees, avoids paper manufacturing, decreases required landfill space, and save fuel and other resources used for physical delivery, all resulting in a reduction in creation of greenhouse gases. It also helps us to operate more efficiently and serve clients better by speeding delivery, making it easier and quicker to track and locate documents and files, and reduces delivery and storage costs, saving money.
For example, if we have a document stored electronically rather than having to locate it in a paper file we can often e-mail it to you while we are talking on the phone rather than mailing a copy later. Or, we can send corporate annual report or annual meeting checklists to you in electronic format that you can complete on your computer and e-mail back without having to print them out and mail back.
If this works for you, let us know and we can begin minimizing the paper documents we send to you and deliver them electronically instead. Our checklists for annual reports and annual meeting minutes/actions include check boxes for you to indicate you want future checklists sent electronically, and a blank for you to provide the e-mail address you want it sent to. To receive our newsletter sent electronically, just e-mail newsletter@cecb.com, or the current and prior newsletters are available on our web site, www.cecb.com.
