(OPEN):
THE NEW "FEDEX DELIVERY MANAGER" GIVES
PACKAGE-RECIPIENTS THE ABILITY TO CUSTOMIZE DELIVERIES TO THEIR HOMES.
CARLA BOYD, WITH FEDEX, DESCRIBES SOME OF ITS OPTIONS...
(BOYD):
"AFTER SIGNING UP FOR FREE, CUSTOMERS HAVE ACCESS TO
DELIVERY-SCHEDULES AND -NOTIFICATIONS THAT KEEP THEM INFORMED ABOUT
PACKAGES [THAT ARE] COMING THEIR WAY. THEY CAN ALSO ACTIVELY TRACK
AND MANAGE THE DELIVERIES THAT ARE EN ROUTE TO THEIR HOMES--WITHOUT THE
NEED OF A TRACKING-NUMBER, OR EVEN A FEDEX-ACCOUNT. FOR EXAMPLE,
CUSTOMERS CAN: CREATE DELIVERY-INSTRUCTIONS FOR PACKAGES; SIGN FOR A
PACKAGE AHEAD OF TIME; REQUEST A VACATION-HOLD; HAVE THE PACKAGE HELD AT
A FEDEX-LOCATION; SCHEDULE THE DELIVERY FOR WHEN IT'S MOST CONVENIENT;
OR HAVE THE PACKAGE DELIVERED TO ANOTHER ADDRESS. WITH 'FEDEX
DELIVERY MANAGER', CUSTOMERS CAN REQUEST THE OPTIONS THAT THEY
WANT--WHEN THEY WANT THEM--WITHOUT BEING LOCKED INTO A PREMIUM-PRICED
MEMBERSHIP."
(CLOSE):
"DELIVERY MANAGER" IS AVAILABLE THROUGH MULTIPLE
DIGITAL-PLATFORMS--INCLUDING A FREE MOBILE-APP. FOR MORE
INFORMATION--AND TO SIGN UP--VISIT
