Benefits
Coordinate campaigns
It can be difficult to coordinate all of the channels of communication campaigns. Online content, print, and e-mail may not be synchronized due to inefficient processes and inconsistent messages. The ability to manage Web and print email from a single system can bring these efforts together.
Consistent messages
Since Outbound E-mail and Content Manager can use the same content through BluePrinting technology you can ensure consistent messages, reinforcing brand and product strategy.
Time-to-market
Due to Outbound E-mail’s coordination and consistency benefits, you can ensure that all communication efforts are coordinated. You can also expand these benefits to the print channel using SDL Tridion InDesign Connector.
