So that their invoices, reminder letters and official documents don’t get lost among other e-mails. Totally understandable. But handling business mail does require a lot of time and resources. This can often be done more efficiently! External mail processing offers the perfect solution for this.* ## **External mail processing for businesses** When you opt for external mail processing, you outsource your outbound business mail to an external partner. All you have to do then is gather your outbound mail and place it in mail bags or bins, after which your postal partner will [collect your business post](https://www.easypost.eu/en/easypost-classic). Sorting, franking and sending are a thing of the past: your partner will do all that for you in future. ![external mail ](https://images.storychief.com/account_36355/23-018-easypost-website-postverwerking-uitbesteden-header-v02_2ced503534d6812021052f249e57ba4a_800.jpg)Or you can make your mail processing even better.

It gives you the opportunity to schedule your staff's precious time more efficiently and allows your employees to fully focus on performing value-added tasks.
