Listen "Proving print’s value to marketers, with Sarah Burns"
Episode Synopsis
Canon’s Insight Report found that brands and agencies continue to set aside significant budget for print marketing materials. But with buyers wanting more input from printers, and younger marketers being less exposed to printed media, the onus is on print service providers to be creative, proactive, and more vocal than ever when it comes to the possibilities and power of print. In this episode of Print Matters, Jacky Hobson talks with Sarah Burns, Head of Media Solutions at media consultancy firm Join the Dots*. She is also the Deputy Chair of the Direct Marketing Association (DMA) Print Council, which continues to do excellent work in getting the UK excited about print. Hear about the return of scratch and sniff ads, a chocolate letter from the Royal Mail and what Sarah feels printers need to do to prove the value of print in the age of digital. This episode focuses on being creative, one of the Make It Mantras from the Canon Ascent Programme – a business development initiative designed to support Canon’s Pro Print customers now and for the future.
