Doing More with Less: Empowering Personalization with RSA Software

Commercial printers and in-plants are under constant pressure to deliver high-quality results while maximizing efficiency and minimizing costs. Personalization has emerged as a powerful tool to help these organizations differentiate their offerings, drive customer engagement, and increase ROI.

For RSA partners, enabling customers to create personalized documents for their customers seamlessly and cost-effectively is a golden opportunity to showcase the value of RSA’s innovative solutions. Let’s explore how RSA software empowers personalized document creation—and allows your customers to do more with less while providing their customers with a competitive advantage. 

Why Personalization Matters 

Personalized communication isn’t just a trend; it’s a necessity for effective marketing. Studies have consistently shown personalized content significantly improves customer engagement, conversion rates, and brand loyalty. A 2021 report from McKinsey & Company revealed that over three-quarters of consumers (76%) consider personalized communications a key factor in considering a brand, and 78% say such content makes them more likely to repurchase. Whether customized marketing materials, invoices, or targeted direct mail campaigns, businesses investing in solutions that enable personalization are reaping the benefits. 

However, achieving true personalization at scale can be daunting. Many in-plants and commercial printers struggle with limited resources, outdated workflows, and the need to maintain profitability. This is where RSA software comes in, providing solutions to streamline and optimize personalized document creation while saving time and resources. 

How RSA Software Drives Personalization 

RSA’s ImpactVDP is a solution that can simplify the creation of personalized documents. If you’ve been selling RSA solutions for any length of time, you should already realize how they can help your customers achieve more with less. However, it may help to have a refresher so that you are better equipped next time you have a conversation with a customer or prospect.  

1. Variable Data Printing - ImpactVDP, RSA’s variable data printing software, enables users to produce high-impact, personalized documents efficiently. By automating the process of inserting variable text, images, and other elements into templates, ImpactVDP eliminates manual intervention and reduces the risk of errors. Customers can quickly create professional-grade personalized materials such as direct mailers, event invitations, and promotional pieces with minimal effort and resources. 
   
   For example, instead of creating hundreds of individual mailers for a campaign, ImpactVDP allows your customers to design a single template with dynamic fields. These fields are automatically populated with data uploaded from an Excel or CSV (Comma-Separated Values) file, allowing for mass personalization without additional labor costs. 
   
   
2. Integration with RSA’s WebCRD and QDirect – ImpactVDP integrates with WebCRD and QDirect, enhancing the submission of personalized print jobs within the in-plant or commercial print shop. This simplifies the ordering and production process, reducing the administrative burden on staff. It also allows your customers to do more with less—boosting efficiency, reducing costs, and expanding their capacity to deliver high-value, personalized projects. 
   
   
3. Cost-Effective Personalization - RSA’s solutions are designed for scalability and cost-effectiveness. By leveraging automation and eliminating bottlenecks, your customers can achieve personalization at scale without incurring significant additional expenses. Whether they’re producing a few hundred personalized pieces or tens of thousands, RSA’s software ensures consistent quality and efficiency.
