3 How we can help you Your organisation is communicating with a wide variety of people: customers and employees, certainly, and perhaps retail outlets, service outlets, channel partners or other intermediaries. And you re communicating in a wide variety of ways: marketing through campaigns and materials that sell your key messages and propositions; product and after-sales teams through manuals, catalogues, guides and support content; customer service teams through contracts, forms and transactional communications. We can help you manage and improve the processes for all these kinds of communications to: Create a more personalised experience for your customers. Embrace new communication and marketing channels. Respond more quickly and consistently to your customers. Standardise your processes across business units and geographies. Find cost savings. 4 5

This includes publishing personalised digital catalogues, distributing product information through smartphone apps, and using animations and interactivity to make technical and MRO information easier to understand.

6 Print management Our clients seek a print provider who consistently ensures the timely provision of the right quality output, to specification, delivered at the best price, and who can work with them to reduce both cost and elapsed time across the end-to-end process.

We ensure quality control on each print job and manage capacity to achieve deadlines. We can also provide you with the best prices. Our market buying power, strategic sourcing approach and proprietary e-auction platform allow us to find considerable cost savings throughout the print process. We work with our clients and their agencies to find further cost savings and efficiencies across the process: for example, providing input into specifications to ensure design concepts can be produced economically, or introducing process improvements for order management, stock control and warehousing. The process efficiencies we introduce not only cut costs but dramatically improve print turnaround times. print sourcing and supplier management transactional print and transpromo multi-language text flow control direct mail production scheduling and order management pre-press checks, brand and artwork integrity checks inventory management store-specific collation postal optimisation warehousing delivery print on demand 10 11

13 Helping you transform In the context of customer communications and marketing, our clients typically have one or more of the following goals for process innovation and transformation: Creating an integrated customer experience by standardising processes across business units and geographies. Driving retention and growth by creating a more personalised experience for customers. Meeting changing customer expectations by embracing new communication and marketing channels. We can help you overcome each of these challenges. Whatever your vision for customer communications in your organisation, we ll work with you to develop and implement a practical transformation roadmap. Organisations seeking to achieve these goals face three main challenges. First is funding: finding the money to pay for innovation. Second is infrastructure: if processes are disparate and platforms are old, then often the basic foundations for transformation are not in place. Third is achieving transformation in an economic, low-risk, non-disruptive way

15 Making your processes simpler, faster and more efficient One of our strengths is making processes more efficient: simplifying them, cutting out unnecessary steps, automating labour-intensive tasks and using technology to improve visibility and control.
