Mailbox Express Elevates Customer Interactions Using Comcast Business Technology

Comcast Colorado

“We knew Mailbox Express was special when we worked with Lorraine throughout the Comcast RISE program,” said Robert Thompson, vice president of business services for Comcast’s Mountain West Region. “We are proud that she wanted to continue her relationship with our team, and that our technology solutions are supporting her, and as an extension, her customers with the variety of needs that they have.” Comcast Business today announced that it is providing Mailbox Express with technology solutions – including Comcast Business Internet with Connection Pro, Voice Mobility and Comcast Business SecurityEdge™ – that help the small business provide quality customer service as well as reliable internet access to customers who visit the location. Lorraine Hall, owner of Mailbox Express, bought the company in 2020 with the goal of providing packing, shipping, printing and business service needs to the residents and businesses of Thornton, Colorado. With only one other part-time contractor to help when the business gets particularly busy, Mailbox Express operates primarily as a one-woman business. Customers come to the Colorado-based storefront for a myriad of services, including but not limited to shipping and receiving packages, renting a P.O. Box, renting computers, scanning documents and printing brochures. Because Hall took over Mailbox Express during the height of the pandemic, she was challenged to create awareness for her new business among a community that was not initially able to visit her storefront when it first opened. Thanks to the support provided by the Comcast RISE program, Hall successfully created a television advertisement that educated potential customers on her new ownership of Mailbox Express and the various services that the company offers. While Mailbox Express’ relationship with Comcast Business started with Comcast RISE, Hall chose to stay with Comcast Business as a provider when her support from the program expired because she saw the quality of solutions and support she was receiving. “My business is about so much more than shipping. Many of my customers are older and not familiar with the process of attaining and printing a shipping label, and some are younger customers who need help sending a fax. The services that I offer are possible thanks to the services that Comcast Business provides,” said Hall. “I once had a customer let me know that my computer system was more accessible than the public library. That is some seriously high praise, and a testament to the quality of Comcast Business’ technology solutions.” The technology solutions provided by Comcast Business are tailored to suit Mailbox Express, which relies heavily on technology to ensure support for Hall and her team member, as well as a quality customer experience. Because her business has access to data, implementing SecurityEdge™ solutions was critical to help protect her connected devices. And since there are only ever two employees operating the shipping facility, Voice Mobility has given Hall the flexibility to intercept Mailbox Express’ calls from anywhere. The addition of Connection Pro to Mailbox Express’ technology suite provides powerful 4G LTE backup, giving Hall confidence that she has help to maintain operations during unexpected network outages. About Comcast Corporation Comcast Corporation (Nasdaq: CMCSA) is a global media and technology company that connects people to moments that matter. We are principally focused on connectivity, aggregation, and streaming with 57 million customer relationships across the United States and Europe.

New Business Owner Chris Greene Buys Alloy Printing, Opens Minuteman Press Franchise in White Plains, NY

Minuteman Press International Inc

In April of 2023, Chris Greene made the decision to switch gears and become a business owner. That is when Chris purchased over 40-year business Alloy Printing from Mary Jane and Alan Goldman, which is now operating as the new Minuteman Press franchise in White Plains, NY. The business remains located at 190 East Post Rd., White Plains, NY 10601, a 6,000 sq. ft. facility where it has been operating since 1995. Since buying the business, Chris has already hit several key milestones for Minuteman Press in White Plains. He attributes his sales growth to picking up where the previous owners of Alloy Printing left off – by joining local business organizations and maintaining existing client relationships. Chris has also been building on his established client base by marketing additional products and services such as custom branded apparel. History of Alloy Printing Mary Jane Goldman first joined the printing industry in 1979 when she opened a PIP Printing location in Yonkers. She moved the center to its current location at 190 East Post Rd. in 1995, and then eventually transitioned the business to an independent operation, Alloy Printing. Prior to owning the business, Mary Jane worked as a nurse for 11 years before looking for a change. In a previous interview with The Examiner, Mary Jane explained, “My options were open. I was taking a sabbatical. I could always go back to nursing. My parents had friends that were in printing and did very, very well. And I decided that would be a challenge that I would like to take on.” After initially expanding to three locations, the Goldmans decided to focus only on their White Plains location, where they had been residents since 1987. Mary Jane shared, “Sometimes more isn’t always better.” Alan noted, “[White Plains] is the center of the county. It’s the county seat. It’s where all the action is.” During their years in business, Mary Jane and Alan were active in several local groups including the White Plains Downtown Business Improvement District and many more. New owner Chris Greene has followed their lead, saying, “I was just appointed to the Board of the White Plains Downtown Business Improvement District and am also a member of the Business Council of Westchester. I have found these groups to be very beneficial in terms of networking and building/keeping relationships.” One thing that has never changed in over 40 years is the fact that people need and use print. Alan shared with The Examiner, “We’re supposed to be a more paperless society. But we find it’s not a paperless society.” In the interview, he added, “The internet doesn’t serve what we produce. We’re more of a hands-on, come in, sit down, let’s go over it. What can we do? How can we help? How can we both work together to produce what you want and make you successful? Because if you’re successful, we’re successful.” Welcome to Minuteman Press, White Plains Prior to buying the business, Chris Greene worked in corporate advertising, sales, and marketing. Chris shares, “The three biggest reasons I chose to buy Alloy Printing and transition to Minuteman Press are: My desire to be a business owner and move out of the corporate world; I look at the printing industry as an offshoot to what I was doing in my advertising career; The quality of my experience in learning about Minuteman Press and Alloy Printing.” Chris adds, “The training and support from Minuteman Press has been great. The training helped me develop a solid base of knowledge on how to operate a print business. When I’ve needed support in terms of learning or ramping up my marketing, my RVP Jim Galasso and the entire team have been great in giving me direction. It has been a positive experience all the way around.” When reflecting on the first six-plus months, Chris shares, “When I first started, my number one priority was to reassure our existing customer base that the high quality and customer service that they previously had was not going anywhere. As we look towards further growth, the first area we’ve grown from a product standpoint has been apparel, which we are actively marketing.” He adds, “For me, it’s not about being the boss as much as it’s about how I am spending my day. I enjoy giving our customers the products that we make. That the finished products are directly associated with my ownership of the business is very rewarding.” Minuteman Press in White Plains is located at 190 East Post Rd., White Plains, NY 10601.

Avoid Costly Mistakes in Medicare Planning

YourUpdateTV

As millions of older Americans prepare for the Medicare Annual Enrollment Period, it’s time to make sure people understand the options available before they choose their next plan. Recently, Ari Parker, Medicare Expert and Best-Selling Author of the book ‘It’s Not That Complicated’ participated in a nationwide satellite media tour to discuss the open enrollment period and costly mistakes people make when choosing Medicare plans. A video accompanying this announcement is available at: https://youtu.be/Ph3XzVQ7bEs Medicare decisions can be incredibly complicated. But they don’t have to be. When it comes to picking a plan, there are a few things that are crucial to remember. First, the open enrollment period runs until December 7th. Medicare plans change every year, along with your health, so it’s crucial to review your coverage before the December 7th deadline to ensure that you are on the right plan for your specific needs. When considering benefits, think about the 3 Ps. Providers, prescriptions, and priorities. It’s important to make sure the doctors you see are in network and covered affordably, your prescriptions are easily accessible and cost effective, and that your plan matches up with your own life priorities. It’s Not That Complicated is a guide that teaches people how to pick the right plan for their situation, breaking down Medicare into bite-sized chunks and guiding Medicare beneficiaries through the key aspects of selecting a plan. "Medicare is a moving target, and 2024 brings important shifts in coverage that will directly influence the choices many are about to make," Parker remarks. "At Chapter, we empower seniors to choose what's best for both their health and finances. This book extends our reach to a broader audience than one-on-one consultations could ever allow." To learn more, visit askchapter.org or call 888-487-2023 About Ari Parker Ari Parker is the author of the best-selling book “It’s Not That Complicated.” As the co-founder of Chapter, the country’s leading Medicare Advisory company, he has helped thousands of Americans find the right Medicare plan that maximizes their benefits while saving them money.

Unlock Your Dream Holiday Getaway: Airbnb Hacks that Can Help You Secure the Perfect Accommodation Hassle-Free

YourUpdateTV

Planning a memorable holiday begins with the right accommodation. Recently, Liz Debold Fusco, Communications Lead for North America, Airbnb, conducted a satellite media tour to share the best Airbnb hacks to help your holiday travel dreams come true. A video accompanying this announcement is available at: https://youtu.be/U4QjdBszMq4 Based on feedback from guests and Hosts around the world, Airbnb improved nearly every aspect of the app experience. From sign up to checking out, and every step in between, Airbnb took a design-driven approach to make sure that users have a seamless booking experience. Whether by the shore or on the slopes, a dream holiday stay is within reach. Airbnb is sharing its best hacks to help holiday travel dreams come true, from filtering searches for must-have amenities to curating the ultimate winter vibe with Airbnb Categories. Grab a cup of cocoa, cozy up by the fire, and let Airbnb help you find the ultimate festive stay. Use total price display to search for perfect holiday getaways within budget Last December, Airbnb rolled out total price display, a game-changing feature that makes it easier to search for unique, festive stays within your budget. With the goal of empowering guests to make informed decisions, Airbnb revolutionized the way stays are presented by showcasing the total price, inclusive of all fees before taxes, right from the get-go. Since launch, over 8 million guests have booked travel on Airbnb using the feature. i Whether looking for a cabin for ten, or a private room for two, total price display gives the guests the transparency they need to find the best option for them. Use Categories to search by holiday vibe or for inspiration Dreaming of a white Christmas in a ski-in ski-out chalet? Or maybe leaning towards a blue Hawaiian on a sandy beach? Airbnb Categories are helpful in finding that needle in the haystack, or inspiring guests as they figure out what type of stay they crave! There are so many unique categories to choose from – and this holiday season, Vineyards, Cabins and Iconic Cities are three of the most popular Categories guests are booking this year ii, showcasing how every traveler has a unique vision on what their perfect holiday stay can be. iii Filter searches to find the perfect winter escape A stay with all the trimmings can mean different things to different guests, for some that’s wifi and for others it’s a gym! In fact, last holiday season, two of the most searched amenities on Airbnb were jacuzzis and fireplaces iv. Just in time for this holiday season, Airbnb introduced two new search filters based on popular demand: pet-friendly stays and king-size beds, making it even easier to narrow searches for every individual’s holiday must-haves! Santa doesn’t have the only holiday wishlist Wishlists are the best way to get holiday planning underway. And following Airbnb’s 2023 Summer Release, Wishlists now include a calendar so guests can check the availability of all wishlisted stays. Guests can also add personalized notes to each wishlisted home to easily reference why a particular stay made it on the nice list to begin with! Flexible searches and carousel fun With Airbnb’s flexible search tool, dream stays are just a click away. If flexible on where and when, and even for how long, guests can unlock even more stays over the busy travel season. And it’s easy to use: instead of selecting exact dates or even a destination at the beginning of a search, guests can search with options like a weekend getaway, a week-long vacation, or even a month-long stay, as well as by continent or country or anywhere in the world. But if travel plans are fairly set, and search results are limited, a brand new feature will automatically display a carousel at the bottom of search results with more great stays available over similar dates. Guests and their loved ones are covered this season, with AirCover Airbnb is here to take the stress out of booking a stay for the holidays! Every booking comes with AirCover, so if there’s a serious issue, Airbnb will help guests find a similar place. To learn more, visit airbnb.com.

How to Prevent Your Home from Becoming the Haunted House on the Block

YourUpdateTV

With Halloween just around the corner, homeowners everywhere are going out of their way to make their homes look scary and ‘haunted’ on purpose. But when we put off routine fixes around the house – think servicing a noisy HVAC system or replacing light fixtures – our homes can actually start to feel haunted year-round. Recently, Home Care Expert at Thumbtack, David Steckel, participated in a nationwide satellite media tour to discuss the elements that make our homes feel haunted, easy fixes and resources that can help. A video accompanying this announcement is available at: https://youtu.be/m5os3Us5wTA Recently, Thumbtack surveyed over 1,000 millennials to get a sense of what exactly is ‘haunting’ their homes. A resounding 40% of people surveyed believe they’ve lived in a haunted home at some point and 20% revealed having consulted paranormal experts. So, what elements make homes start to feel haunted? Based on the survey findings, the most common elements according to millennials are: ● Doors closing unexpectedly (47%): Hiring a door repair specialist can cost between $63-$475 depending on what door type you need fixed, materials, and more. ● Noises coming from inside the walls (38%): Hiring an exterminator can likely help you get rid of unwanted tenants and costs between $100-$140 on average. ● Flickering lights (34%): Hiring an electrician can run between $150-$200 depending on the scope and timing of the project. ● Creaky floors or stairs (28%): Hiring a flooring specialist can cost between $300-$500 on the lower end and $4,963-$7,101 on the high end. While being the spookiest house on the block might be the goal for Halloween, it is easy to prevent living in a haunted home the rest of the year. According to millennials, the easiest ways to make a home less spooky is to give it a refresh – with a fresh coat of paint or a deep clean (25%), fixing light fixtures and faulty electrical wiring (23%), and keeping up with proactive maintenance (20%). The bottom line is: Homes don’t start out haunted. They can simply feel that way because homeowners are in the dark about what’s really going on, and don’t know where to begin or who to call. Thumbtack provides homeowners with personalized guidance on what to do and when to do it as well as who to hire, so your home stays in good shape all year long.
