Chicken Wrapper Introduces Internet Fax Services
June 16, 2009
There are times when you need a totally unrelated situation to inspire you in solving a problem. Like one time, I was sorting out my fax messages and it seemed I was missing a lot of pages. I thought I should clarify it with my boss and went straight to his office after I piled the pages. We were expecting to receive 17 pages of legal documents and we received only 14 pages. What we did was contact the sender and inquired if all pages were already sent.
They said yes but all the papers were already sent down to the records section. We asked if we could have the missing pages sent to us again and we received a very unwelcome response. Let us just leave the situation at that point because what happened next was just too much of a hassle. My boss got irritated and I got scolded for something that was not my fault.
Two days later, I went out to buy some groceries. I bought some chicken to cook for dinner and it was wrapped in a newspaper. As I arrived home, I saw an ad on the wrapped newspaper that talks about internet fax services. I did not have a clue what the service was about and as I remembered what happened a couple of days ago, I searched the net to understand what it was. Lo and behold, I discovered that THAT incident could have been avoided if we had these services.
I then recommended the service to my boss the following day. We were spending too much on our fax messages and my suggestion came just in time. My boss was so impressed with the fact that I did some research on the possible solutions of our recent problem. When he investigated my suggestion, he saw the potential benefits in internet fax services.
Before that day ended, I was assigned by my boss to look for the best internet fax services in the market. He wanted me to compare the different brands so that we can make the most measured decision on which one to sign up with. He entrusted me with this responsibility because he said that if I can make this system work to our advantage, then I will be several steps closer to a promotion.
I did the most comprehensive research I could. Based on that research, we employed a brand that reduces our fax messaging expenses by more 50% every month. I got the promotion and I am writing this blog to give merit to internet fax services in exchange for what I owe them.
