Call for Submissions for 2008 PODi Best Practices Collection

June 2007
ROCHESTER, NY—June 12, 2007—PODi, the Digital Printing Initiative, announces the call for submissions for the 2008 Best Practices case studies collection. Each year, the competition draws dozens of the most innovative examples of digital printing success. Entries can be submitted for any program that involves the use of digital printing, including print-on-demand books, direct mail, collateral, web-to-print, transaction applications and more. There is no fee for submitting case studies for the competition, and no limit on number of submissions. The deadline for entries is July 31, 2007. Submission forms and instructions are available at www.podi.org/casestudy/bpsubmission.

All case studies accepted for the online Best Practices Collection have the added opportunity to compete for the annual Best Practices Awards, which are judged by an industry panel and presented at the annual PODi Application Forum. Entries may also receive recognition through the “Attendees’ Choice” award at the Application Forum. Applicants can send hardcopies of their winning Best Practice applications for display at the Forum, and also receive a registration discount to attend. Forum attendees will choose their favorite applications, further showcasing the companies involved in the winning Best Practices.

“When case studies are accepted for the Best Practices Collection, the companies they spotlight receive valuable recognition within the marketplace. The honor has proven to be an effective sales tool that carries real credibility with customers and prospects,” said Rab Govil, president of PODi.

In 2007, fifty-two new case studies were added to PODi’s online database, bringing the total to 320. The case studies are free to PODi members, who can access the articles individually or download as a complete collection. A Case Studies Sample Pack is available to non-members.

If you’re thinking about purchasing this case study collection about variable data printing (VDP), chances are you already have a pretty good idea that VDP can be a mailer’s best friend.

Why? 

Personalized mail pieces take care of job number one: get attention. Even better, by using content that is relevant and unique to each prospect, that attention has a much better chance to turn into action than with the traditional direct mail piece. 

With the “Variable Data Printing Case Studies” you will get insight on how six companies, including <b>Ivy Bridge College, Hallmark Gold Crown Stores </b>and <b>Club ABC Tours </b>overcame challenging obstacles and found success through advanced VDP solutions. 

Here are just a few of the many takeaways you’ll learn: 

•       How to leverage data
•	The importance of data verification
•	How to use relevant images to evoke an emotional response
•	How to effectively use pURLS to increase response
•	What formats are working
•	What elements you should test

Today, it’s all about personalized 1-to-1 marketing.  The message needs to be relevant.  And, the more relevant the message is, the better the response rate.

VDP turns data into dollars!
