Semi-commercial

Drops in circulations and page counts are forcing newspaper printing operations to seek new approaches to be able to work in a cost-efficient way, especially for the long term. And increasingly, this means expanding their portfolio, offering higher-quality print products that not only benefit their clients but also the newspaper itself.

An extra edition on "semi-commercial" will be published end of May 2011. In the following you find the links to interviews and background material as well as related information:

  • An article concerning special advertising formats was published in our ePaper issue of January/February 2011: "Try something new, give free rein to creativity"
