Returning to “Normal” — Not the Best Strategy
The pandemic has upended just about everything. We hear that so often, it’s almost become trite. It is, nevertheless, all too true. New rules of engagement have altered our work, entertainment, education, and family interactions. The impact on consumer behavior has been just as intense. Consumers’ values, perceptions, attitudes, and expectations have all changed. A recent study by research firm Accenture—spanning 25,000 consumers in 22 countries—makes this very clear. Half of respondents say...

Congrats on Your Merger – Now Go Change All Your Documents!
Mergers and acquisitions are based on the expectations of stronger market position, growth, and cost savings. But after the deals have been inked and signed, then begins the actual logistical work or forging two companies together: sales teams, personnel, offices, and so on. A component of this logistical exercise is document management. Each merging company has its own forms, labels, statements, logos, and other assorted templates and document elements. These items enable the company to...

Ode to a Document
Do you work in the document industry? Ever try to explain your job to friends and relatives outside the document business? It’s not easy. Most people don’t understand what it takes to produce and deliver the documents they rely upon to do business and correspond. But they asked what you do, and so you patiently explain. After they finally grasp a general idea about your profession, many of your acquaintances will make a comment about how the world is going all digital and isn’t it too bad...

Is Your Data Driven Marketing Solution Really Personalizing the Offers?
Marketing professionals know that a personalized and relevant direct mail offer produces the best response and conversion. Integrating promotional messages into a transactional document such as a statement produces an outstanding response because recipients almost always read these documents. This approach works quite well, but making it happen is more difficult than it sounds. Often the issue is a lack of resources. Marketing knows how to capture attention with relevant messages, but legacy...

Hurry Up and Print the Labels!
On-demand printing for production, packing, or shipping is the standard operating procedure in today’s just-in-time environment. Without it, an organization has little choice but to stock pre-printed items or manually produce labels, packing slips, and other documentation attached to outbound goods. Label printing is as important as any step in the manufacturing process. The labels must print flawlessly and fit the application. Fast production is a must. A hiccup stalls the entire workflow....

Where Would the Insurance Industry Be Without Printed Documents?
The insurance industry runs on documents. Various locations, regulatory, and situational versions make document management a momentous task in any insurance organization. Common documents produced by insurers include quotations, policies, statements, reports, renewals, reminders, checks, remittance notices, and statutory letters. Insurers must meticulously manage and constantly update these documents because of regulatory changes and market forces. The insurance industry is predicated on...

Ugh! The Regulations Changed – Again!
Maintaining compliance with regulations that dictate the format and content of documents (many of which are rarely read) is a constant challenge in many industries. Regulation updates require companies to find all affected documents, in every version, and determine the software that created them. The next step is locating a subject matter expert who works with the necessary software and can make the changes. Following approval, organizations move the documents into production and if printing...

Why Does It Take So Long to Print?
Companies buy fast printers and are then dismayed when it seems to take forever to get their documents produced — especially during those busy times when page volume spikes. Why is that? Several factors determine the speed at which completed pages exit the printer, but the most common cause of slowdowns is inefficient data files the printer must process. If you’re sending poorly formatted PDF data to the printer, it could take too long to process through the raster image processor (RIP). When...

Do You Love Your Document Generation Solution?
Most people aren't particularly fond of the way their organizations create and maintain the critical documents their businesses need. Here are some comments we've heard: “We don't have just one document system, we have many. We're paying for the same functionality over and over.” “Our IT people don't like to be bothered with making document changes. They have higher priority items on their to-do list.” “The business line managers are frustrated because the documents aren't the way they want...

Replace Empty Space with Results-Generating Content
If your organization produces transactional documents like invoices, statements, or notices, you are probably spending money on customer communications that have some blank spots. It costs almost the same to produce and mail a document whose pages are filled with text and images as it does to mail one with blank spaces. Why not fill that emptiness at practically no extra cost and make those documents work harder for you? Lots of forms and documents are missing an opportunity to promote,...
