In addition to these issues, a dominant pain point felt by businesses of all structures and sizes is rising fuel costs that is putting immense pressure on the cost of raw materials and finished goods and creating an unprecedented level of inflation. For example, over the past 12 months Doxim has seen significant cost increases including:  7% increase in labor  12% increase in technology licenses  26% increase in paper  100% increase in envelopes  43% increase in ink and supplies  80% increase in cyber security and insurance Since the middle of 2021, Doxim has been absorbing such costs, however with this trend expected to persist over the next several months we are no longer able to do so and must pass along a portion of these increased costs to our customers. Therefore, effective on the invoice you receive in June, Doxim will implement a temporary inflationary surcharge of 6% on the total invoice (minus postage). The surcharge will be calculated against your total invoice and be represented as a separate line item. This surcharge is temporary and will be adjusted quarterly based on the dynamics of inflation and the global supply chain. It is our goal to eliminate the temporary surcharge once the inflationary challenges are resolved and we begin to see our input prices stabilize or decrease. Above all, Doxim remains committed to open and transparent communication with our customers, to ensure you are informed of these ever-changing market conditions. We will monitor these market conditions driving this surcharge and as these conditions change, we will review the need for the surcharge and communicate accordingly. We recognize the impact of sudden increases on your business and will do our best to manage this volatility as we forge ahead together in these unprecedented times. As material costs rise, Doxim's costs and your costs will rise with it. We continue to work with our clients on their omni-channel strategy to help reduce the impact of paper increases, postage, and postal delays. If you would like to learn more, or have any questions, please reach out to your Customer Success Manager or Sales Account Executive.
