Variable Data Publishing

Focus on your customers’ interests – individually

Grow your business and ensure your customers’ loyalty


As a print service provider, you constantly have to grow your business and ensure your customers’ loyalty. At a time where printing services are readily available and more comparable than ever, how do you differentiate in the hard-copy printing market? And how do you retain your customers?

What is variable data publishing?

Variable data publishing, printing or VDP, is a hugely valuable solution for commercial printing and graphics companies who rely on the professional look and feel of finished products and the revenue-generating benefits it can bring to their business.

 

Quickly plan and execute print jobs

Customer data can be easily integrated with document design without the need for scripting or programming. A huge variety of data, including text, graphs, colour with industry standard barcodes and personalised images can be incorporated into a mail merge or other volume print job quickly and easily.

 

Konica Minolta’s VDP solutions also personalise marketing documents using clever templates and guides to create flyers, direct-mail cards, certificates and awards, and come with step-by-step instructions as to how to modify templates using information in an Excel database.

 

Intuitive solutions that will save you time and money

Using the latest technology, Konica Minolta’s VDP solutions can intelligently read data and decide automatically whether marketing materials can be emailed rather than posted, saving companies’ time and money.

Enabling business through variable data publishing


How you can profit from personalised marketing

Today's information overkill has made personalised communications all the more important. A letter or marketing message that is customised to the recipient’s needs has a much greater chance of being read. This makes messages more effective, increases response rates and strengthens customer relationships.

Variable data publishing (VDP) is the technology that makes personalised marketing possible – and economically feasible. By creating personalised documents in a single print run, VDP adds significant value to a digitally printed page. By extending your portfolio to include this service, you can provide a wide range of customers with a highly effective gateway to the world of personalised communications. And for you, VDP is a means of generating more business at higher profit margins.
