49 Seven Key Research Highlights The majority of participants did not realize that the Postal Service is self-funded. Most participants valued the Postal Service as a community asset. Reducing hours of operations should not be a primary focus for cost saving efforts. Residential delivery location and the number of delivery days represented the most likely areas for compromise. Some participants saw value in the Postal Service introducing new products or services at post offices. Most participants were hesitant about the Postal Service providing digital services. Nearly every participants cited that they would be negatively affected if the Postal Service ceased to exist, but had trouble articulating how they would be affected InfoTrends 49
