Business solution
The Royal College of Midwives (RCM) is the voice of midwifery: the UK’s only professional organisation and trade union led by midwives, for midwives.
Headquartered in London, RCM provides services to members across the UK, via 200 branches.
Six segments of data variance was supplied in bulk by RCM and processed by Latcham in a highly secure and protected environment, and in accordance with the required specifications to minimise postal costs.
All artwork was set and developed by Latcham. Each membership renewal pack included a pre-printed A4 letter, a member card, an A6, 6 page leaflet, a subscription direct debit and data record leaflets - all enclosed into a litho overprinted branded envelope,
Latcham managed the set up and data processing, and undertook all printing, cutting, folding, enclosing and matching of all personalised elements of the membership renewal pack. The final process included sorting and postal administration.
Business benefits
We created a more vibrant design and produced a full PVC longer lasting membership card, using a cost effective production process. The renewal packs were more convenient, both in terms of size and the information contained.
In total, 34,000 individually addressed membership renewal packs were successfully created and delivered to each member. The result was an increased membership renewal compared to previous years.
