About the White Paper - "Insider Perspective: 10 Web to Print Mistakes to Avoid"
Print buying is personal, but customers now demand an impersonal, do-it-yourself service option. Imagine a bank competing without an ATM or a fast food restaurant without a drive thru. Printers need to harness the web to create their version of the ATM machine; self-service purchasing by their customers, which enables automation so that eventually 80% of the standard work can "flow" with minimal labor costs. A printer's web strategy is a new front door to their business. In this report printers get an insider and independent perspective on how to avoid common mistakes in all phases of launching or evolving their new front door to their business.
About Jennifer Matt
With over 16 years in the web to print vendor community, Jennifer Matt offers an insider and independent perspective based on direct experience with six different technology providers and literally hundreds of web to print projects. Perspective provides a unique view of any given challenge. Much of Jennifer's perspective comes from working on web to print technologies (selling, implementing, and supporting web solutions for printers of all sizes). Knowing the technology has been helpful; but what's been truly invaluable is the combination of knowing the technology and understanding the print business from the front lines. Real ROI is delivered when the technology enables a solid business strategy.
Why did I write this paper?
Printers deserve an easier transition to migrating their business online. There has been too much money and time wasted during tough economic times where we should be squeezing every penny of value out of each investment. Sharing these lessons will decrease the mistakes going forward, rewarding printers with more ROI and making the partnerships between printers and vendors more effective.
