WEBINAR | Return of the mag: creating cut-through with print

Watch the session

In our increasingly online world, it’s no surprise that screens, apps and notifications are the default settings for much of how we communicate. And that’s no different in the world of work.

But when there’s so much digital noise, our messages can sometimes fall a little flat. Cut-through can come in many forms, but one of the most effective, memorable and tangible formats is the humble magazine.

Despite naysayers proclaiming its demise, print is powerful and plays an important role in a rich communication strategy. But it does have flaws: cost, climate concerns and a curious creative process often mean print is passed over.

In this session Elle Bradley-Cox and Connor Faulkner are joined by special guests to dissect the potential of print, probe the problems behind it and discuss how it can play a powerful part in amplifying any IC channels suite.
