NEW STUDY: PRINT PREFERRED OVER DIGITAL

Reported in a recent Printing Impressions newsletter:

A new survey into the preferences of consumers for printed versus digital communications was recently published by Two Sides, the global organization created to promote the responsible production, use and sustainability of print and paper.

Results of the U.S. survey highlighted that 88 percent of respondents indicated that they understood, retained or used information better when they read print on paper compared to lower percentages (64 percent and less) when reading on electronic devices. 

PAPER BOYS: A LESSON IN RESPONSIBILITY

From a Bob Sacks post on PubExec.com:

" For about two years I delivered to Long Island homes a paper called Newsday. It was probably my first meaningful job. Sure I cut lawns in the neighborhood and did small things for small change, but delivering a newspaper is a real job with real adult-like responsibilities. It was a commitment for six days a week, every day without fail. It forced me to meet and greet my customers, as I had to ring the bell once a week to collect payment. So I had to manage money, manage schedules, and be the delivery person of record.

I'm guessing that as society has changed, young boys and girls no longer get this early education system into the business world. Where do kids today get an opportunity to learn an assorted set of life skills, like delivering a newspaper, to introduce them to the responsible world of business?

Gives some food for thought, doesn't it? 

A PARTING THOUGHT FOR THIS PATRIOTIC SEASON

Freedom has its life in the hearts, the actions, the spirit of men and so it must be daily earned and refreshed - else like a flower cut from its life-giving roots, it will wither and die.
