“The Digital Engine Opportunity”
 Agenda
 • Production vs. Office – What’s Different?
    –   Buyers Motives
    –   Solutions
    –   Sales Approach
    –   Service
    –   Solutions Analyst
 • Business Model
    –   Hardware
    –   Service
    –   Margins
    –   Pro-forma P&L
Buyer Motives
• What is different?
    – How can I increase volume I run through my shop?
    – How can I make more money by offering something new and
      different?
    – I run a mission critical operation
        • Equipment reliability and consistency are essential
        • Quality and a service organization that has mission-critical capabilities
    – I need a safe decision – making the wrong decision could cost me
      my job and/or my business
    – The more I print the more money I make, so don’t talk about
      minimum commitments – I’m going to run as much as possible!
    – What substrates?
        • Whatever the next job through the door requires
        • I need a broad range and an organization that will work with me
Solutions – Solving Problems
•   What is different?
     – Bring me solutions that allow me to grow my business
          • 60% of all customers express a desire to consider add-on solutions such as VDP
            and Web2Print within 3 months of equipment acquisition
     – Teach me how to price and sell digital output (business development)
     – Workflow is everything. I need to know at all times where my jobs are and
       the current status
     – I deal only in mega-sized files. I need the horsepower to process them
       efficiently. 90 PPM is worth nothing if I can’t get the job to the printer
     – Give me applications that allow me to differentiate from my competitors
     – Give me applications and capabilities that allow me to bring
       work in-house that is current being sent out (In-plants)
     – Give me flexibility!
Sales Approach
• What is different?
    – There are no short sales cycles. In the current environment expect
      an average of 6 months
    – Credit approvals can be challenging
        • Approval ratios are improving, but still below norms(<70%)
        • If you approach as a box replacement you are at an
          immediate disadvantage versus the incumbent
        • The pain of change is greater than staying the same.
        • Need to offer a solution that truly solves customer’s pain points in order
          to make the decision compelling
    – Pipeline management is critical. It is easy to get defocused
      with the longer selling cycles. Weekly reviews are essential.
        • Pipeline is big enough
        • Cycles are advancing
Sales Information
• From experience
   – Typical close ratios (from proposal stage)
       •   Existing office customer: 45-50%
       •   New business: 25%
       •   In-plant: 45-55%
       •   Commercial printer: 25%
       •   Franchise Printer: <20%
   – Minimum pipeline need to support a sales rep
       • $300K in 30 day outlook
       • $1.2 million in total pipeline at all times
Service
• What is different?
   – Mission critical
       • Few are willing to pay for it (2 hour response, 24x7)
       • It may only be needed during certain periods
       • Questions get asked and are a test of your savvy and commitment
• Pricing of service
   – Understand the environment and applications
   – Many variables to consider
   – Cannot micro-manage toner usage
Solutions Analyst
• What is different?
   – The creates immediate credibility
   – The SA should be involved in as many steps of the sale as
     possible
       •   Demo
       •   Site survey
       •   Statement of Work
       •   Configuration
   – Ideally, SA spends >50% of available time in presales, 30-
     35% post-sales
   – Key to annuity revenue growth via solutions
   – Significant margin can be obtained by selling Professional
     Services beyond basic installation and training
Solutions Analyst
• Past experience
  – Solutions attach rate @ time of sale - 35-
    40%
     • Some are “mandatory”
  – Implement f/u process
     • Can grow to 60-70% attach rate within 90 days
       post-install with effective sales process
  – Average total solution add-on revenue per
    color engine $5-15,000
     • Gross margin of ~45%
The Business Model
• What is different?
  – Cost of sales
  – Machine margins
  – Professional services margins
  – Annuity margins
Cost of Sales
• Promoting from within vs. hiring from competition
   – Competitive hire will cost more, but may gain faster time-to-
     revenue
• Past experience:
   – An experienced rep expects a base of $65-$75K
   – Commission plan that can get them to $125K+
   – Quota should be set to ~$1.5M
       • Hardware - $1.2M
       • Solutions, analyst services, annuity - $0.3M
   – If purely an overlay to existing sales team, the price goes
     down
Cost of Sales
• Solution Analyst talent is hard to find
   – Highly technical but with a sales acumen
   – Ability to engage a customer in conversation in order to ID
     pain points and solutions opportunities
• Past experience:
   – Salary of $75-$85K
   – Bonus/commission of $15K at target
   – Tie compensation to:
       • PS and solutions sales
       • Success of sales effort
       • Overall customer satisfaction
Machine Margins
• Expect machine and accessory margins for digital production
  color of 20-40%

• Margins will vary based on environment and customer type
    – Existing versus new customer
    – In-plant versus commercial print
    – Certain vertical markets produce higher margins due to the
      solutions orientation

The Digital Engine Opportunity [Global Channel Partners Summit]

  • 1. The Digital Engine Carl Joachim Senior Partner Caslon and Co. Opportunity
  • 2. “The Digital Engine Opportunity” Agenda • Production vs. Office – What’s Different? – Buyers Motives – Solutions – Sales Approach – Service – Solutions Analyst • Business Model – Hardware – Service – Margins – Pro-forma P&L
  • 3. Buyer Motives • What is different? – How can I increase volume I run through my shop? – How can I make more money by offering something new and different? – I run a mission critical operation • Equipment reliability and consistency are essential • Quality and a service organization that has mission-critical capabilities – I need a safe decision – making the wrong decision could cost me my job and/or my business – The more I print the more money I make, so don’t talk about minimum commitments – I’m going to run as much as possible! – What substrates? • Whatever the next job through the door requires • I need a broad range and an organization that will work with me
  • 4. Solutions – Solving Problems • What is different? – Bring me solutions that allow me to grow my business • 60% of all customers express a desire to consider add-on solutions such as VDP and Web2Print within 3 months of equipment acquisition – Teach me how to price and sell digital output (business development) – Workflow is everything. I need to know at all times where my jobs are and the current status – I deal only in mega-sized files. I need the horsepower to process them efficiently. 90 PPM is worth nothing if I can’t get the job to the printer – Give me applications that allow me to differentiate from my competitors – Give me applications and capabilities that allow me to bring work in-house that is current being sent out (In-plants) – Give me flexibility!
  • 5. Sales Approach • What is different? – There are no short sales cycles. In the current environment expect an average of 6 months – Credit approvals can be challenging • Approval ratios are improving, but still below norms(<70%) • If you approach as a box replacement you are at an immediate disadvantage versus the incumbent • The pain of change is greater than staying the same. • Need to offer a solution that truly solves customer’s pain points in order to make the decision compelling – Pipeline management is critical. It is easy to get defocused with the longer selling cycles. Weekly reviews are essential. • Pipeline is big enough • Cycles are advancing
  • 6. Sales Information • From experience – Typical close ratios (from proposal stage) • Existing office customer: 45-50% • New business: 25% • In-plant: 45-55% • Commercial printer: 25% • Franchise Printer: <20% – Minimum pipeline need to support a sales rep • $300K in 30 day outlook • $1.2 million in total pipeline at all times
  • 7. Service • What is different? – Mission critical • Few are willing to pay for it (2 hour response, 24x7) • It may only be needed during certain periods • Questions get asked and are a test of your savvy and commitment • Pricing of service – Understand the environment and applications – Many variables to consider – Cannot micro-manage toner usage
  • 8. Solutions Analyst • What is different? – The creates immediate credibility – The SA should be involved in as many steps of the sale as possible • Demo • Site survey • Statement of Work • Configuration – Ideally, SA spends >50% of available time in presales, 30- 35% post-sales – Key to annuity revenue growth via solutions – Significant margin can be obtained by selling Professional Services beyond basic installation and training
  • 9. Solutions Analyst • Past experience – Solutions attach rate @ time of sale - 35- 40% • Some are “mandatory” – Implement f/u process • Can grow to 60-70% attach rate within 90 days post-install with effective sales process – Average total solution add-on revenue per color engine $5-15,000 • Gross margin of ~45%
  • 10. The Business Model • What is different? – Cost of sales – Machine margins – Professional services margins – Annuity margins
  • 11. Cost of Sales • Promoting from within vs. hiring from competition – Competitive hire will cost more, but may gain faster time-to- revenue • Past experience: – An experienced rep expects a base of $65-$75K – Commission plan that can get them to $125K+ – Quota should be set to ~$1.5M • Hardware - $1.2M • Solutions, analyst services, annuity - $0.3M – If purely an overlay to existing sales team, the price goes down
  • 12. Cost of Sales • Solution Analyst talent is hard to find – Highly technical but with a sales acumen – Ability to engage a customer in conversation in order to ID pain points and solutions opportunities • Past experience: – Salary of $75-$85K – Bonus/commission of $15K at target – Tie compensation to: • PS and solutions sales • Success of sales effort • Overall customer satisfaction
  • 13. Machine Margins • Expect machine and accessory margins for digital production color of 20-40% • Margins will vary based on environment and customer type – Existing versus new customer – In-plant versus commercial print – Certain vertical markets produce higher margins due to the solutions orientation
  • 14. Annuity Profit Variables Environ. Color A3 Toner Cov. Toner Cov. Gross Profit Ratio Ratio Black Color In Plant 64% 28% 6% 24% 40-45% Comm’l 60% 73% 6% 36% 15-20% P4P 63% 71% 8% 45% 15-20% Direct Mail 76% 68% 7% 34% 20-25% • Average Color PPP 0.05, and declining • Average Black PPP 0.01, and declining • Average monthly volume 70-100k/month • High A3 with high color coverage needs pricing discipline
