The marketer’s essential guide to personalized omnichannel communications
Print is an essential fuel to drive the omnichannel marketing engine – but how can marketers accelerate its impact by combining creativity, collaboration, and personalized communications?

How Canon unlocked the power of personalized print in the omnichannel mix
The customer journey isn’t linear anymore, and people expect unique marketing journeys that are personalized to them. It means that communications of the future must be omnichannel – which gives marketers an opportunity to reimagine the interplay of different media channels (old and new) to seamlessly connect all the dots of the customer journey.
The clever combination of data, creativity, targeting capabilities and new digital printing technologies have ushered a bright future for one of the oldest tricks in the marketing playbook – print. And now, it’s easier than ever to integrate print into existing marketing plans to deliver measurable impact.
By breaking down the silos that still exist across teams and functions, finding a better way of working together across the supply chain can unlock the true value of omnichannel marketing potential with print. It requires new thinking, new talent and a new kind of industry collaboration.
