Thu May 15, 2008 10:00pm EDT

DUBLIN, Ireland--(Business Wire)--
Research and Markets
(http://www.researchandmarkets.com/reports/c91943) has announced the
addition of "The Digital Print Sales System" to their offering.

   An easy-to-implement system that guarantees the successful
transition from selling Traditional to Digital.

   Digital printing is attempting to take the printing industry by
storm. It is featured at every trade exhibition, lauded in almost all
print trade publications, featured in multiple presentations at
leading industry conferences and forecast to overtake the traditional
sheetfed market by the year 2020. Whether this forecast is accurate or
not, there is no doubt many printers are seriously considering their
entry into this new technology without taking into account some 'key
realities'.

   The first reality is a majority of buyers of traditional offset
printing are not ready for, nor familiar with the benefits of short
run or 1:1 personalised printing. Traditional buyers must not only be
sold the virtues and the pricing of a specific printer, but also must
be shown how digital printing will directly benefit the objectives
they seek to achieve with their print.

   This publication will concentrate on key issues; strategies and
tactics to be implemented by traditional commercial sheetfed and web
fed offset printers as they move into the digital print environment.

   - Today and tomorrow: where are we going?

   - The major differences in selling digital print verses
traditional print.

   - Where to find the best prospects.

   - The ideal sales call.

   - The successful digital print sales process.

   - Ideas on selling ROI (Return on Investment) and ROPE (Return on
Print Expenditures).

   - Case studies to illustrate the most effective selling
techniques.

   In addition this publication will discuss key areas of focus for
the sales team and the paradigm shift from 'sales' to 'solutions
provider' to digital print buyer.

   Key Topics:
