Why Print Continues To Make An Impression
GETTING ATTENTION
There are fewer magazines and print newsletters in the mail, so more attention is paid to each piece.

More and more people are attempting to disconnect themselves from digital media, feeling overwhelmed by the sheer volume. Many marketers are continuing to leverage print as something of value in their marketing mix.
PRINT STILL EXCITES PEOPLE
The printed word is still perceived as more credible to many people than anything on the web.
NO AUDIENCE DEVELOPMENT COSTS
