17. “The software we were using before was very limited,
to the point of being able to add a name and address,
but not much more. Now, with the Canon solution,
not only is personalisation a much less time-
consuming task, we’re also able to be a lot more
flexible in how we use it. For instance we can now do
things like adding relevant figures to specific mailings.”

19. We created personalised boxes of Lego at Ipex
with every stage produced live on the stand.
“One of the most effective live demonstrations at Ipex
was Canon’s production of every stage of a personalised
box of Lego bricks. Stand visitors could give their
names and then come back some time later to collect a
finished box with their name displayed in bricks on the
front panel and an end flap.”

21. “Personalisation is a great way to really grab people’s
attention and being able to do this across several
platforms simultaneously is a powerful offering for our
customers. Variable data, in particular, is capturing the
imagination of our customers who run events such as
seminars and workshops, as well as
education institutions.”
