Interactive Personalized Video Market Study (2022)

Madison Advisors views interactive personalized video (IPV) solutions as the next stage in the evolution of customer communications. The growing use of email and mobile communications provides organizations the opportunity to leverage electronic communications as a preferable and less expensive communications channel. With increased access to broadband Internet, video communications have the opportunity to reach a greater percentage of customers than ever before. Unlike traditional online videos offering general instructions or generic information, IPV communications enable customers to self-guide through the information specific to their account. Customers can view the options associated with their account and take appropriate action through the interactive document.

Post Composition Solutions Market Study

The line between document composition and post composition software is starting to blur due to the fact that post composition software, once considered a tool to “fix” applications prior to print production, has now evolved into a multifaceted solution with feature-rich capabilities for enhancing and managing customer communications. With the evolution of high-speed inkjet color print solutions, post composition solutions allow fulfillment operations to take advantage of technology that efficiently manipulates and optimizes documents with the ability to merge print streams and dynamically affect content prior to output or archive.

In this research, Madison Advisors focused on the integral components that make up a post composition solution, capabilities of this software and where post composition fits in an overall customer communications management (CCM) strategy. Our research will explore the fundamental advantages that current post composition solutions offer organizations and in what way each of our study participants delivers solutions to meet those advantages and more.

Enterprise Output Management Systems, 4th Edition: Moving Beyond Print Management (2019)

Enterprise Output Management Systems (EOMS) were historically used to manage the production of printed communications; however, today, these solutions offer enhanced workflow and additional output capabilities to meet consumer expectations for digital delivery. Over the last decade, the print industry witnessed an increase in service provider mergers and acquisitions, and stricter privacy and security requirements necessary to comply with the Affordable Care Act and other regulations such as HIPAA, GLBA and FISMA. Yet, despite the prediction of the demise of print—especially since the introduction of email—print may never cease to exist entirely, making enterprise output management critical for monitoring production. Advances in technology have commoditized this industry forcing enterprise in-plants to consider outsourcing due to low print volumes, and service providers rethinking their value proposition beyond print and mail service offerings.

Service Provider Market Pricing Study, 5th Edition (2017)

The outsourced transactional print market continues to be under intense price pressure. Service providers must compete with other service providers and adapt to the growing transition to various electronic delivery mechanisms being referred to collectively as “omnichannel delivery” because so many different types of non-paper information sources are involved. While some core applications, such as statements and policies, have been slow to transition to electronic media, many of the ancillary print applications that provided higher profit margins for print service providers have diminished due to customer preference for print suppression and electronic delivery

A Service Provider Perspective on the Customer Communications Industry, 2nd Edition 2017

Customer Communications Management (CCM) is a dynamic industry that continues to evolve and adapt because of changes in technology, increased competition, and strict regulatory requirements. These changes not only affect enterprises that produce communications for consumers, but for all stakeholders who are involved in the CCM ecosystem. Print service providers (PSPs) are not exempt from feeling the impact of these dynamics. Historically, these organizations were the final step in the document lifecycle and were responsible for the physical manufacturing of documents and submission to the United States Postal Service (USPS) for delivery.

Color Migration and Digital Delivery: Trends in Transactional Communications (2019)

Since its introduction over a decade ago, color inkjet technology has provided the transactional print industry with numerous improvements, including better output quality, faster print speeds, greater flexibility in print jobs and increased productivity. Transactional communications are business-to-consumer (B2C) communications, such as statements, bills and customer letters, which span a variety of verticals including financial services, insurance, healthcare and utilities. These communications, once thought of as documents that were required to satisfy regulatory requirements, are now being revitalized as a communication delivery channel that enhances the customer experience (CX) through eye-catching and colorful document design, variable content and targeted marketing messages to cross sell or upsell to existing consumers.

Color Print Migration Market Update (2017)

Stating that the introduction of the color inkjet printer changed the world of print is an understatement, to say the least. While the price point for a color image has decreased to a significantly attractive level, the increase in adoption for transactional communications has not been as impressive—but the good news is it’s getting better. The printing industry has been rife with analyst predictions about its demise, especially since the introduction of email, and more recently other digital delivery mechanisms. USPS mail delivery volumes dipped slightly in 2016 from the previous year—down approximately 2.2%—but based on continuous research efforts conducted by Madison Advisors, print is certainly not dead and in fact, we believe it will experience a revival thanks to the color inkjet technology available in the market today.

Beyond ROI: Increasing Production Efficiencies with Inkjet Printers

Before making the investment in color inkjet technology, a company will typically focus its research efforts on three key features: output quality, throughput and the range of supported media. In addition to these features, the service capabilities of the manufacturer and cost considerations make up the main decision criteria. The sales and marketing teams for both the inkjet printer manufacturer and its resellers focus their efforts on highlighting the capabilities of the equipment. To demonstrate these capabilities and narrow the buyer’s focus on the printer, customer test files are often used to compare the output of several different printers.

Consent and Preference Management Brief (2023)

Enterprises must walk a fine line between data privacy and enhanced customer experience. On the one hand, customers appreciate personalized recommendations and the ability to opt into an omnichannel experience. On the other hand, many customers are concerned about how much personal data corporations collect, how their preferences are managed, and how this information is used within the organization or sold to others. The cloud-based consent and preference management (CPM) solutions presented in this study enable enterprises to collect customer consent in keeping with the ever-expanding array of regulations. The solutions also allow enterprises to manage customer preferences for data sharing and make it possible for customers to control how the data is used, as well as which channels the enterprise may use to contact them.

Mastering RFP Vendor Selection (2023)

For enterprise firms, selecting the right print service provider (PSP) is often the deciding factor in delivering personalized, consistent customer communications while leveraging the latest in print technology to build economies of scale. In a competitive marketplace, companies typically rely on requests for proposals (RFPs) to select a vendor, but the RFP process can yield less than optimal results when organizations lack in-depth knowledge of print industry best practices or a systematic method for evaluating vendors. Without sufficient expertise, organizations may lack the insight to objectively score RFPs and select the vendor that best meets their needs.

Automated Document Factory Solutions Enter the Digital Age (2022)

Digital communications attract customers both from an environmental standpoint—by eliminating paper— and from a process standpoint. However, challenges remain for enterprises trying to support digital channels. In many enterprises, print production is disconnected from digital delivery. Software systems for automating print production processes have been available for decades. While often consisting of a suite of software tools, these automated document factory (ADF) solutions enable print operations to significantly reduce manual processes and the tools provide piece-level tracking for legal and regulatory purposes. This brief shares the data Madison Advisors collected from eight ADF vendors about their products’ capabilities, how they define an ADF and their thoughts on the future of the ADF market.
