TFC Unveils DynamicDesign™, a New Web-to-Print Solution That Gives Sales and Marketers the Ability to Customize Materials While Corporate Maintains Brand Control

Napa, CA, March 29, 2007—Nationally recognized marketing service provider, TFC Inc., today unveiled DynamicDesign™, a new web-to-print solution that enables marketers to streamline the process of creating, managing, printing and shipping custom branded marketing collateral. Using the online DynamicDesign system channel partners, sales representatives and regional stores can quickly and easily customize and order high-quality materials that meet micro market requirements and are delivered in record time. One of the companies currently using this new service is Costco Wholesale. Costco is currently using DynamicDesign to create a selection of quality personalized communications for their marketing partners, enabling local warehouses to customize marketing materials for their region.

DynamicDesign is a stand-alone application that serves as a branded extension of corporate web sites and intranets. Marketers log on, upload pre-approved templates of sales and marketing materials, and approved users customize the materials on demand. Approval processes protect corporate design guidelines and legal compliance. Once an order is approved by a corporate sponsor the printed materials arrive within days. TFC prints and ships the materials from its advanced digital printing and fulfillment center.

“DynamicDesign enables our local marketers to create custom marketing materials in days instead of weeks, without taxing the resources at our home office,” said Beverly Akada, Assistant Vice President of Corporate Communications for Costco. “Not only do we maintain control of the brand at the corporate level, but it has allowed us to reduce costs associated with creating one-off programs for individual locations. Basically, it provides our warehouses with the choice to use customized marketing materials in small quantities when necessary, or to use our preprinted, non customized materials.”

Corporate marketing maintains control over the materials in the system, the level of customization for each and the number of prints that can be ordered. The pre-approved templates ensure that all necessary creative, legal and channel needs are met.

“DynamicDesign really bridges the gap between sales and marketing and we are proud to offer such a robust solution to the market,” said Connie Hill, President and Founder of TFC, Inc. “DynamicDesign allows marketing and sales to each play a role in how materials are customized and presented to prospects and customers. Marketing does not have to spend time creating micro marketing campaigns and the end result is more relevant communications in the field. It’s a win-win for both groups and allows them to bring quality products and service to market faster,” added Hill.

DynamicDesign is currently available. The pricing model is a monthly subscription plus production costs – for unlimited users. For a personalized price quote interested parties can contact the TFC sales team at sales@tfcinc.com or at 707-224-6161.

TFC and GoCampaigns Partner to Provide Web-to-Print Solutions for Realtors and Mortgage Lenders

Napa, CA, February 12, 2007—Marketing services provider TFC, Inc., and software provider, GoCampaigns, today announced a partnership to offer integrated web-to-print solutions for realtors and mortgage lenders. The TFC and GoCampaigns solution is a data driven one-to-one marketing communications tool enabling realtors and mortgage lenders to easily create micro-targeted mailing campaigns.

GoCampaigns is a subscription-based Internet service that allows realtors and mortgage lenders to automate marketing activities including list development, document development and personalized mailing templates. GoCampaigns customers can create their own target lists based on demographics. Through a web interface, customers can choose templates, design materials, order prints, and even mail the materials without ever having to go to a design house or print shop.

“Most independent realtors and lenders do not have access to the intellect and services that GoCampaigns and TFC are offering. We are confident that this technology will allow users to effectively grow their businesses,” said Hoshang Mostofizadeh of GoCampaigns. “Our partnership with TFC has created an end-to-end solution for them that is easy to use and professional. TFC’s direct marketing expertise and their unique approach to client relationship management provides a new level of service to our customers.”

As part of the relationship GoCampaigns has created the web interface. TFC built the integration for the web to print solution and will be responsible for the execution and management of the fulfillment process and mailing. The fulfillment process consists of real time data transmissions to and from GoCampaigns, digital color printing to produce personalized and data rich letters, self-mailers and postcards, insertion of letters into envelopes, and preparing orders for mailing. TFC will also support GoCampaigns with a variety of additional services including consulting around designing for variable one to one print capabilities, postal and mailing legalities, as well as managing scalability.

“GoCampaigns is offering an exciting new solution that is needed in the marketplace and we are thrilled to partner with them,” said Connie Hill, President and Founder of TFC, Inc. “This relationship is a foray into a new vertical market for TFC and we are ready to apply our years of experience as we continue to expand our vertical expertise.”
