In its newest report, Keypoint Intelligence reviews print buyers' purchasing trends, including their marketing budgets, most common applications of print in their marketing efforts, run lengths and trends, customization and omnichannel interests, and purchasing trends including offline versus online buying.

Marketers from larger companies covering eight vertical markets, averaging 850 employees per company, were surveyed for the report. Most of the respondents have an online/digital marketing duty within their total marketing responsibilities, which provides helpful insights on how marketers see print within their total marketing strategies.

"Nearly all marketers (95%) are interested in investing in specialty print," said German Sacristan, principal analyst, Keypoint Intelligence. "Online purchases represent 62% of the print purchasing revenue and is expected to grow 11% in the next three years."

A quarter of omnichannel campaigns are expected to use print. Most common job run lengths for main print applications could be in the digital printing range and, for the most part, are expected to grow.
