SGIA & HCS Regional Retail Workshops
Identifying and reaching the new consumer for the Graphic Communications marketplace
SGIA Expo. October 18 – 20, 2012. Las Vegas Nevada.
The business development process has changed and needs to evolve in today’s marketplace to effectively reach the modern consumer in the graphic communications marketplace. Research shows the modern buyer has a different title than print buyer and has broader responsibilities than simply buying print. They want to research potential partners from afar via web or other means, then engage in the last third of a business development process with your selling organizations. Many legacy sellers are still hunting
transactions alone, instead of investing in a longer term relationship building activities. Setting up programs that build contacts which transform to prospects through automated campaigning and nurturing. Centralizing this contact data is critical to a firm’s success, building business value, not just sales contacts.
Join us to learn more about solutions for data mining, e-campaigning, CRM integration and lead nurturing that reduce selling costs and build scalable outreach for all organizations.
