importance and also in the area of the tools used and the machinery.
Digitalization is unstoppable. In order to network all of this in a contemporary way, the exchange with
employees, partners and customers, in many cases it is necessary to make a
new or at least updated digital infrastructure.

Understanding digital transformation as a process

Every entrepreneur should be aware that digital transformation is not a task with a fixed start and end date, as we know it from other projects, but rather a permanent process of change that must be carefully planned and then continuously optimized and implemented. A complex cycle that is characterized by the consistent search for possibilities for optimization, future-oriented planning and implementation of new solutions. Results must be constantly analyzed, errors corrected and processes adapted. These measures affect both internal processes and all processes that take place for or with the company's own customers. A holistic view of the transformation process is therefore necessary.

Entering the digital transformation

Many printing companies that have already successfully embarked on the process of digital transformation were forced to develop the right concepts and solutions for their own company themselves in a laborious process. A difficult path that also bundles many of the usually limited resources, be it in terms of the necessary budget or simply in the form of the work performance of the required employees. But there is another way.
In many areas, print companies in particular have the opportunity to initiate the necessary changes with significantly less effort and in less time by using digital solutions that are already established. An in-house e-business print platform, for example, can serve as the technological basis for the transformation. By combining the popular Shopify e-commerce platform and our special version of printformer, our printformer.io app enables companies to create a professional and fully functional print store in just a few minutes. Complex research, long development times and high costs are thus avoided and the printing company can consolidate its own profitability during the entire digitization process and also generate higher sales figures.

Advantages of using printformer.io

The advantages of the printformer.io app are obvious. The company benefits from low investment costs for the implementation of the digital print store and the cloud-based application ensures that all current updates and bug fixes are available at all times without having to provide its own resources for web development and service. This means that a system is available at all times that is "state of the art" and does not tie up additional resources.
The size of the existing order volume is irrelevant, as the system can be easily adapted to the current number of print jobs and is therefore flexibly scalable. One of the biggest advantages, however, is certainly the fast time-to-market, as printformer.io can be used to implement your own print store in just a few minutes - one of the most important advantages of printformer.io.
key success factors in order to survive in a competitive field.

New online store with the
printformer.io Shopify
integration

blank

Following the successful integration of printformer.io into the B2B webshop of Logolini®Präsente, our special printformer version is now also being used in the B2C sector. By implementing the new Shopify webshop of "Nascherie.com", we are now also addressing the market for end customers.

Fast time-to-market more important than ever

The time required to implement new projects is always one of the most important factors influencing subsequent success or failure. This is exactly where printformer.io comes in. "The entire store was planned and all the necessary requirements implemented within just a few weeks. After the successful launch of printformer.io in the B2B segment, the next logical step for us was to integrate our special printformer version in the B2C market. The exceptionally short implementation time of the entire project clearly underlines our claim to be able to guarantee an exceptionally fast time-to-market with printformer.io, without having to take months of planning and adjustments into account. Highest efficiency in the implementation and low initial costs are important points for us for the success of all supported projects", says CTO Sebastian Buck.

"With our printformer.io integration for Shopify, we give visitors to nascherie.com an uncomplicated way to flexibly customize each of the available products themselves in the integrated printformer editor. Personalized gifts in various designs, such as photo cookies, photo cakes or motif cakes, can be designed and professionally implemented in just a few steps. At the end of the ordering process, the print data is automatically created according to the personal specifications of the respective customer and the products created in this way can be printed immediately afterwards." 

 

Hitting the nerve of the times with printformer.io

Alexander Sperrfechter, Managing Director of rissc solutions GmbH, adds: "The signal from our customers is clear. The feedback we have received in recent weeks shows us that our decision to develop a special printformer version for the Shopify platform was right on the money. We are very proud to be able to show our customer nascherie.com that our printformer, with its flexibility in handling and the extensive possibilities for integration into existing systems, is rightly in a league of its own for Web2Publish software solutions."

Discovering new dimensions: Our Web2Print universe has a new home

Discovering new dimensions:

Our Web2Print
universe
has a new home

blank

May makes everything new. In our case, it's April, and we're referring specifically to our website. A lot has happened in the last few months since our office moved from Stuttgart to tranquil Ludwigsburg. After the new look offline, i.e. our new office, a small facelift was also urgently needed for our digital home.

The rissc BASE digital: modern, structured and mobile.

Admittedly, it's not always easy to cut out the old habits and try a completely new layout. In our case, however, the general overhaul of the website was more than necessary. Too much has happened here in the last 12 months alone and many innovations needed their own space. In addition to the modern and much lighter look, we have now structured and organized our digital home more clearly. The home page as a central "take off" with an overview of the various areas and the new page navigation offer quick access to all sections and guide you through the rissc universe with ease, whether on desktop or mobile.

The printformer - Web2Publish on a new level

Our printformer, the heart of our Web2Print passion, not only presents itself with a revised logo and its own section on the new website, but also shows in detail what it is capable of in the Web2Print area. With our cloud software, we have created our own standard that is ready for use in just a few minutes and can be integrated into any existing system. Automatic updates that continuously expand your own Web2Publish offering and catapult your personal business into another galaxy are of course included!

The printformer.io app: Easy. Online. Business.

The printformer.io area is a brand new addition to our rissc universe, both in terms of color scheme, logo and function. As the name suggests, we are presenting a special version of the printformer software - the printformer.io app. With this innovation, we have combined the best of both worlds and easily integrated our printformer into the Shopify e-commerce platform environment. We show in individual steps how simple, uncomplicated and fast it is now possible to realize your own print store with an integrated editor using printformer.io. Web2Print has never been easier.

With all the new features, we feel completely at home in our revamped digital home and would be delighted if you would take a closer look at our new rissc universe. Feedback is always welcome - have fun exploring!

Looking back - that was OPS2020 in Munich

Review that was the

OPS 2020 in
Munich

blank

On your marks, get set, go! Once again this year, the Online Print Symposium in Munich at the beginning of March was on the agenda for us. As in previous years, we were once again there as a premium partner and were able to introduce our "rissc universe" to around 300 visitors.

Although the signs for OPS 2020 were not necessarily positive due to the onset of the coronavirus crisis, how could it be otherwise? It was therefore all the better to discover many new faces among the visitors alongside many old acquaintances from the industry. With around 300 participants, the premises of the Infinity Hotel in Munich were once again well attended this year and provided the perfect backdrop for our now familiar blue "rissc universe". Visually, however, there was a small but no less important addition - bright green in the form of balloons now also adorned our stand, in addition to versions in blue, and already generated the first inquiries after just a few minutes.

There's something new in the world of Web2Print

The solution to the puzzle became obvious to anyone who looked at the additional color scheme and the printed logos. In addition to Shopify, a completely new logo, the printformer.io logo, was also displayed there, as OPS was the perfect event for us to present our new app to a wider professional audience. Our CEO Alex Sperrfechter had already creatively revealed this to attentive visitors in the OPS teaser videos (click here for the VIDEO ) and those who wanted to have everything explained to them live afterwards had ample opportunity to do so.

Printformer.io - the best of both worlds

Our printformer.io app, a version of our printformer specially tailored for seamless integration into Shopify, now combines the best of both worlds. After we implemented the first integration of this kind in the Shopify webshop of Logolini®Präsente at the end of last year(click here for the article), we will continue to rely on the innovative e-commerce platform Shopify as an e-commerce backbone in the future with its presentation at OPS 2020. The topic of transformation and digitalization has been a real challenge for many companies in the printing and media services industry, and not just since the current corona crisis. The crisis now clearly shows how important it is to deal with these issues in a future-oriented and sustainable manner. If not yesterday, then all the more so today. With the release of printformer.io, we give companies of all kinds the simple opportunity to overcome these previously insurmountable entry hurdles in the area of Web2Publish and support the process with this integration of the printformer software into Shopify, which can be realized in just a few steps. Anyone who wants and needs to take advantage of the signs of the times right now can set up their own store in just a few minutes and use the printformer.io app to place a professional print store with editor and print data upload on the market. Fast time-to-market without lengthy implementation processes has never been more in demand than now - as echoed by interested visitors to our stand at the Online Print Symposium. If you would like to find out more, you can obtain further information in advance at www.printformer.io.

OPS 2020 a complete success

For us, the days at the OPS in Munich were once again a complete success. The numerous positive feedback, the generally positive atmosphere and the many interesting discussions and inquiries optimistically round off the importance of this event for us. With the orientation of our new app, we have hit a nerve in the eyes of the industry, which represents a real option for many companies to maintain their future prospects. Reason enough for us to continue to impress with our passion for print, our experience in Wep2Print and Web2Publish and with customer-oriented software solutions. We are already looking forward to 2021 and the next OPS in Munich
