The market dynamics in the printing industry necessitate strategic decisions

The world of printing is rapidly developing from traditional offset printing to flexo printing and digital printing. To stay competitive in this fast-moving market, new solutions that help customers adapt faster, deliver sooner, print better, and grow bigger must be considered. But you can’t do it all. Marketing Manager Ann-Christine Nettey-Marbell explains:

Strategy is very much about what not to do, including which exciting opportunities not to choose. We love developing new machines and we are very good at it. However, we need to spend our resources where the benefits are greatest. To make those difficult choices we obviously need deep insights about the industry we serve and our competition.

Lindberg International understood the needs – and certainly delivered

According to Ann-Christine, there was no doubt in the management team about who to choose for the research project

Lindberg International understands business-to-business and they even have experience with the printing industry. They certainly have a good reputation within the industry based on their experience and the completion of numerous tasks so, consequently, we chose Lindberg International. To be honest, It was a no-brainer.

For Ann-Christine it was of major importance that there was a very close collaboration during the project

No matter how smart we all are when we start a project like this, we experience surprises. We know it and Lindberg International knows it. That’s why we received regular updates and based on our response, they were both willing and able to adjust their plans and methods to include specific new topics. That’s what I like because this ensures we reach the right goal.

The outcome of the research fitted the needs perfectly, so Ann-Christine was very happy

Lindberg International gave us a very comprehensive report and a detailed presentation. They also provided clear and well-founded recommendations and I must say, they could definitely be successful as strategy consultants as well. They made it possible for us to clarify our opportunities and pinpoint the “low-hanging fruits”. That’s exactly what we wanted.

GM received valuable market insights and relevant recommendations

Ann-Christine is reaping the benefits:

The research made it possible for us to make the necessary strategic decisions on a solid platform of knowledge. Those decisions have surely led to both increased revenue and also cost savings, as we can now direct the resources to value adding activities.

Recommending Lindberg to other companies with a similar need?

Lindberg is highly recommended: 10 out of 10

I will certainly recommend others to use Lindberg International for their market research projects – and probably also if they “only” need strategic consulting.
