December 15, 2004 -- Lexington KY. WhatTheyThink, the leading news and analysis source for the printing and publishing industry, today announced the launch of PrintWebinars.com. This new initiative is designed to pick up the pace of educational programs that deliver critical information to the rapidly evolving graphic communications industry while offering valuable sponsorship opportunities for suppliers to the industry. A custom webinar service will also be provided by PrintWebinars.com to make it easy for organizations to hold online sessions for internal communications, customer events and training. “WhatTheyThink has been successfully delivering webinars for over a year now,” said Randy Davidson, President. “We consistently have 200 to 400 participants register for these free events and see significant download activity when the content is posted following the event. WhatTheyThink is proud to be able to serve the industry with these free educational events, and we are excited about the opportunity to expand the program through PrintWebinars.com.” PrintWebinars.com will work with suppliers to the printing and publishing industry to develop impartial educational sessions on relevant and critical topics, including variable data printing and one-to-one communications; an in-depth look at the role of MIS in the manufacturing of print; and computer integrated manufacturing (CIM) for commercial printers. These free programs will be developed and delivered as turnkey events by PrintWebinars.com staff, including logistics, content and speakers. Following each program, the presentation and audio will be available for downloading, thus extending the life of each event. “I have been very pleased with the results of the webinars I have conducted using the PrintWebinars.com process,” said Dr. Joe Webb, industry commentator and WhatTheyThink economic expert. “Attendance levels by industry executives at each of my quarterly webinars has been exceptional, and I have been delighted with the quality of the follow-up interaction I have been able to have with participants. Expanding this program to include frequent and tailored programs on timely, relevant and focused topics will be a benefit to the industry and provide good value to the sponsors.” “We are planning an exciting agenda for 2005,” said PrintWebinars.com Managing Director, Vince Naselli. “We expect 2005’s schedule of topic specific events to begin about mid-January, ramping up to two sessions a month for the balance of the year.” PrintWebinars.com also hosts cost-effective, trouble-free special events for internal meetings, customer events and sales training.
