Telecommuting
Technology offers many ways for employees to collaborate on projects from afar. This is a great option for any numerology business.
Daily commuting is a large part of the average person’s energy consumption. Working from home at least part-time helps get rid of that energy sucker.

Develop a Green Shipping Plan
Go green with a great shipping plan. Use packing materials made from recycled materials. Your business probably receives many packages. If the box and filling materials are still in good shape, reuse them.
Use the right size box. A huge box for a small item wastes a lot of shipping material. When sending several items to the same customer, put them in the same box.
Find and use a green shipping company.
Save Paper
Businesses use a lot of paper. But is it necessary to print things? You can use the cloud for sending and receiving documents.
Digital signatures now are as binding as physical ones. This eliminates the need to print documents for signing.
You can also send invoices and other documents by email. It’s instant and there’s no risk that it will get lost in the mail. Makes more sense, doesn’t it?
