Print Delivers

Are you stressed about budgets? Trying to figure out where to spend your money? Should I do go with social media, Internet blogging, personalized URLs, variable data e-mails with links and tracking?

WHAT ABOUT PRINT?

Print Delivers is an event celebrating and educating people about the power of print. Over the next few months Print Delivers Events are occurring in all of the major US cities. My company has been chosen to represent a marketing services provider in the mid-Atlantic area, and I am so excited. In the recent years everyone has been making the switch to digital, but now people are realizing they aren't getting the bang for their buck and their messages are getting lost in e-mail land. People are learning that:
