Campaign plan

The thinking behind the material.

This page is the reasoning behind the website and the graphics: what the offer is, who it is aimed at, the order the messages run in, and how the pieces would be published. Read it as a proposal. Nothing here is committed to a date.

The positioning

The market sells printers. We sell a system.

Machines create output. Systems build businesses.

Specification sheets in this market look alike, because much of the hardware is the same. The difference is not the machine. It is the RIP, the onboarding, the cost of ink over the life of the equipment, and the support behind it.

That is what the line moves: the purchase stops being "what does the box cost" and becomes "what will it produce".

The offer

$37,900 all-inclusive.

What the number covers

  • ✓ Insured freight
  • ✓ Professional on-site installation and commissioning
  • ✓ Turnkey setup with calibrated RIP profiles
  • ✓ Operator training
  • ✓ Standard warranty and direct engineering support

Why a package and not a discount

A price cut signals urgency and damages the brand for every future sale. A package that absorbs freight and installation is a statement of value, and it removes the two costs that sour a purchase after the fact.

Financing

Financing through Geneva Capital. Terms subject to credit approval. No monthly figure appears in any piece, because none has been approved.

What carries the weight

Two facts do most of the selling.

Everything else in the campaign points back to one of these.

01

In stock, while competitors quote six to ten weeks.

A shop that buys this month is producing next month instead of waiting on overseas freight.

02

Ink costs 30 to 65% less than the cartridge brands.

The purchase price is paid once. The ink is paid on every job for the life of the machine.

Audience and sequence

Who it is aimed at, and the order they hear it.

The order matters more than any single piece. Price before proof reads as a discount; proof before price reads as a system.

In priority order

  1. 01

    Tradeshow leads who have not answered yet

    Next Level Maker Conference and PRINTING United. They are warm: a conversation already happened.

  2. 02

    Inbound traffic from the site and social

    Colder, so the content opens with the offer and the proof rather than the relationship.

The order of the message

  1. 01

    Availability and price

    The reason to act now.

  2. 02

    Proof

    Quality control in Florida, software developed in-house, US-made inks.

  3. 03

    Economics

    What a square foot of production actually costs.

  4. 04

    Remove the risk

    Mail us your hardest substrate and we print it.

  5. 05

    Brand

    Machines against systems, which closes the loop.

Publishing

The same story, told in the shape each platform wants.

One idea per publishing day, adapted per platform rather than one graphic pasted everywhere.

LinkedIn

Where production managers and owners actually read. Longest copy, plainest tone.

Instagram

The visual record of output. Carousels and the process, not slogans.

Facebook

Same audience as Instagram, older skew. Mirrors the Instagram post.

X

The link card and the short claim. Lowest effort, lowest return.

TikTok

Vertical video, watched on mute, decided in two seconds. Its own plan, not a re-post of the graphic.

Cadence

Monday, Wednesday, Friday

Three publishing days a week, four formats per day, the same story on each platform rather than one graphic copied everywhere.

Four formats per day

Format Size Where it goes
feed 1080 x 1350 Instagram feed, Facebook feed
square 1080 x 1080 LinkedIn image, Instagram carousel
link 1200 x 627 X, LinkedIn link post
tiktok 1080 x 1920 TikTok, Instagram Reels, YouTube Shorts

The calendar, as an example

Two weeks, worked out day by day.

Written as concrete dates because it is easier to picture than an abstraction. The dates are the most changeable part of this plan.

October 5

Monday

In stock, and why it matters

“$37,900 all-in.”

Competitors quote six to ten weeks of freight. We ship from a US warehouse.

October 7

Wednesday

Quality control in Florida

“We don't sell a crate.”

The hardest differentiator to copy, and the honest version of the origin story.

October 9

Friday

Cost per print

“The printer is the cheap part.”

Moves the conversation from the purchase price to the cost of a square foot.

October 12

Monday

Adhesion proof

“Mail us your hardest substrate.”

Removes the risk instead of describing the machine. The highest-intent ask in the set.

October 14

Wednesday

Financing and delivery timing

“Equipment that arrives in Q1 earns nothing in Q4.”

The financing piece. Terms subject to credit approval appears on the asset itself.

October 16

Friday

The system, not the machine

“Machines create output. Systems build businesses.”

Closes the cycle back to the brand line.

The graphics

All 24 pieces, by publishing day.

Four formats per day, shown at their real proportions. Tap any piece to open it full size.

What this is, and what it is not.

It is a suggestion for a rhythm. There is no social strategy in place today, so this is not a correction of anything, and no piece of it is tied to a date.

If the direction is right, the work is mostly done. If it is wrong, changing it now costs a conversation rather than a campaign.

Companion material: the full briefing, the four weeks of editorial themes, and the TikTok plan. Ask and we will send them over.
