Remember all the ways we've posted?

The world celebrates World Postal Day in 2025 with the theme “#PostForPeople: Local Service. Global Reach". The story of the “post” is a story of human connection itself, evolving from simple handwritten notes carried over long distances to instant digital messages that span continents in seconds. The earliest forms of postal service happened through couriers on horseback or carrier pigeons. Over time, letters became the most cherished medium. A handwritten note or a postcard delivered by a postman carried not just information but emotions that left deep, lasting impressions.

Before telephones arrived, people relied on letters to share stories and maintain relationships. Waiting days to receive a reply made conversations slow, thoughtful, and beautifully meaningful. As technology advanced, telegrams shortened the waiting period, and soon telephones brought voices closer. Then, emails transformed communication by offering a fast, reliable way to connect with friends or business partners.
Today, the very idea of a “post” has taken on new meanings. We no longer only “post” letters. We post on Facebook, LinkedIn, community forums, and personal messaging apps. A post means sharing knowledge, raising awareness, asking for help, and staying connected with people worldwide.

Parallels with Zoho Desk's journey

This journey from handwritten notes to digital posts mirrors the story of Zoho Desk. From a humble beginning in the rural town of Tenkasi, Zoho Desk is built to serve the world. What started locally is now a global platform that helps businesses connect with their customers in meaningful ways. In every support conversation, every ticket resolved, and every interaction logged, we see the same purpose that powers the postal system, the purpose to connect, communicate, and create impact.
Just as letters made deep and lasting impressions on the recipients, every interaction through Zoho Desk has the power to leave a mark. A ticket update, an email reply, a phone call, or a follow-up task; each carries meaning and builds trust. These are not just transactions; they are conversations that shape relationships. Like the handwritten letters of the past, they show care, understanding, and intent.
Our Community Forum inside Zoho Desk is a digital equivalent of a town square or a community postbox. It is the place to brainstorm ideas, ask questions, discuss solutions, and make connections. Every post in this forum is meant to help each other and share experiences. Like letters, postcards, and telegrams, Zoho Desk plays a role in shaping human connections.
Here are some features that embody the spirit of posting and connecting:
  1. Comments added to tickets are like little messages that help teams collaborate seamlessly.
  2. Ticket tags function like stamps on envelopes, making it easy to identify and retrieve related issues.
  3. Much like a letter that could bring joy to a friend, every email response, chat message, and resolved ticket has the potential to reassure, guide, and strengthen connections with customers.
On this World Postal Day, we celebrate the journey of postal services as well as reflect on how posting has evolved into something much bigger, a way of creating and sustaining relationships, both personal and professional. At Zoho Desk, we carry this spirit by enabling our customers to “post” effectively, meaningfully, and with care.
"Thank you for being part of the Zoho Desk family. Every conversation you create, every ticket resolved, and every post you share contributes to a larger story of connection and trust. Just as letters leave lasting imprints in the hearts of loved ones, we hope Zoho Desk helps you create meaningful connections with your customers, connections that endure, inspire, and grow."
Like this post from our Zoho Desk to yours, we look forward to posts from you.
Happy Posting!
Regards,
Lydia | Zoho Desk

                                                              Mail, live chat, telephony, social media, web forms—there are so many support channels out there. Trying to pick the right channels to offer your customers can get pretty confusing. Emails are most useful when the customer wants to put things on record. However, escalated or complicated issues should not be resolved over email because it's slow and impersonal.  When you need immediate responses, live chat is more suitable. It's also quick and convenient, so it's the go-to channel for small issues.

Is there a way around this please? Here is the URL of the page I would like to appear in an iframe. http://ips-properties-to-rent.zohosites.com
