There was a time when it made sense for companies to do their print and mail services in-house. However, now there is unprecedented pressure from regulatory and consumer interests to ensure data remains secure. Make sure the right document is sent to the right person at the right time with a third-party partner for your print and mail outsourcing.
As print becomes a smaller part of the communication spend, it makes less and less sense for companies to manage it themselves. A better plan strategically and financially is to let the experts manage the tricky aspects of print-digital integration, innovation, investment, and supply chain management. Quite simply, print and mail outsourcing for customer communications just makes business sense.
There is a long list of expenses and responsibilities that a company can move from its balance sheet to their outsource partner. These include costs for labor recruitment and management, capital and human resource investment, facilities, security, and business continuity. Top-tier outsource partner such as Venture Solutions can be part of a reliable supply chain with the ability to procure material in large quantities at lower cost.
Whereas marketing communication only contains a customer’s name and address, transactional customer communication often contains sensitive data like account numbers, loan balances, financial history, and health information. The challenge in this is not only keeping the data secure, but ensuring the right data gets to the right person at the right time according to federal regulations. This undertaking can easily become a considerable risk management challenge that may be better handled by an outsource partner.
Working with a top-tier print outsource provider allows a company to focus on its core competencies, rather than worrying about the challenges of print production. This includes tracking industry best practices, investing in equipment and software, finding employees who have the right technical expertise, and dealing with ever-increasing security and regulatory demands.
While using an outsource provider moves production elsewhere, the amount of control your company has over its final products doesn’t have to change. Online tools make it easier than ever for companies to still manage their production while it’s being done elsewhere. A top-tier print and mail provider such as Venture Solutions has remote management solutions with 24/7 accessibility.
