Panel #1 - Transformation of Print Media: Looking
Outside the Box
Innovative uses of media demand a compelling vision
of the possibilities for communicating any message.
Just as a second beer never tastes as good, a second
dollar in the same medium never buys as much response.
That's why the idea of mixing media has always been
attractive. It's in the physics of a flattening sales
response curve. Marketing-mix models will often show
a high return-on-investment for a low-budget medium,
simply because spending fewer dollars puts it at a better
point on the response curve. The general rule is spending
more money and the response-per-dollar goes down. Spend
less money and it goes up. But, while sales-per-dollar
go up, total sales do not, so a brand can't scrooge
its way to growth. We need to create powerful interactions
that consumers choose to experience. Here's a panel
of experts that dissect the key issues and what are
the path forwards for Print Media. How can we streamline
the integration of digital images into our workflows?
How can DAM systems facilitate the integration of media
types? What new tools also enable us to organize, browse,
locate, view and integrate assets?

Panel #2 - Globalization of Business
As corporations become Global Marketers, agencies are
challenged with meeting these needs for their clients.
Agencies are becoming increasingly global; however,
the challenge of execution remains. How do corporations
and agencies execute global marketing programs quickly
and efficiently? There is an aggressive move towards
developing new efficiencies and global print quality
standards that will enable print be competitive in the
worldwide marketplace. Learn about the business requirements
of today's Global Marketers. Learn how the printing
industry is working together to develop new global print
standards in the Printing Across Borders Initiative.
Learn about new printing efficiencies for the CTP environment
that are being developed as part of the GRACoL 7 Initiative.
How can we take advantage of these standards and create
a global print environment? How can creative thinking
help us become more efficient and more competitive?

Xerox Corporation
A Great Illustration of Digital Workflow and
Full-Color Digital Printing |
| When several hundred of the world's leading commercial
illustrators got together at the ICON4 Illustrators
Conference in San Francisco this summer, each received
a beautiful commemorative book as they checked-in
-- a book that left them wondering: "Wow, how'd
they do that?" That's because the 329-page, full-color
perfect-bound ICON4 Sketchbook book not only included
one of the illustrators' sketches, but also was
personalized with their name and one of their fully
finished illustrations in the form of a trading
stamp on the cover. Come to this special Spectrum
sponsor session to hear internationally renowned
illustrator, designer and author Craig Frazier (craigfrazier.com;
stanleybooks.com) discuss how he accomplished this
short-run digital publishing feat, in record time
and at an affordable cost, by teaming up with Xerox
digital printing workflow expert Mike Riebesehl
and Xerox's industry partner Adobe Systems. Craig
also will sign posters and books following each
of his presentations with Mike. |

The Print Media Industry must enhance the power
of print message to corporate executives,
media strategists, media buyers, print buyers,
and the business and creative communities. We
- as an industry - must seek greater visibility
for the concept of print as a superior communication
medium among advertising and marketing decision
makers and influencers. The Life with Print
campaign would like to improve the knowledge of
marketers to not only understand the value of
print, but act on it as well.
