Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/reports/c25663) has announced the addition of Production Workflow Solutions Product Compendium: Mail Preparation Software to their offering.

The considerable annual revenue that companies spend on postage has created opportunities for products designed to optimize the efficiency and reduce the cost of business mailings.

Mail preparation software is one such product category. According to a recent report entitled The Global Print Production Workflow Market: Enabling Fundamental Business Change in Graphic Arts, worldwide revenues generated by the sale of mail preparation software totaled $246 million in 2003. Approximately 70% of the revenues, or $172 million, are attributable to the commercial and transaction printing segments, which include statement printers and direct mail houses. Another 15%, or $37 million, was derived from the publishing industry.

To capitalize on the opportunity presented by mail preparation software, it is important to understand the dynamics of business mail. Business mail encompasses the way mail is used to accomplish the goals of a business or organization. Bills, invoices, catalogs, coupons, solicitations, marketing materials, newsletters, magazines, merchandise, and advertisements are some of the items businesses and organizations mail every day at a significant expense.
