Clocking up 280+ qualified w3p software demonstrations during Ipex. We gave away 1000 copies of Tony\u2019s new book \u2013 to interested people from Chiswick to China.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Why did Ipex work for w3p?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>At \u00a3199 per month for simple to use web-2-print, it\u2019s a low-cost way for Owner \/ Managers to sweat their resources and capital investments harder.<br \/>\nMaking web-2-print templates direct from InDesign proved to be the \u2018show-stopper\u2019 for the w3p team, with some clients wanting to see the process repeated, as they didn\u2019t believe the simplicity.<\/p>\n<p>How will things change for the next Ipex? Well, one thing is sure, CrossRail will be running which might improve accessing Excel from across London and elsewhere.<\/p>\n<p>Overall, we enjoyed a very fruitful Ipex and we expect good things from the next one.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-3032\" title=\"W3P at Ipex\" src=\"https:\/\/www.w3p.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/04\/W3P-at-Ipex1-1024x699.jpg\" alt=\"W3P exhibition stand at Ipex\" width=\"584\" height=\"398\" \/><\/p>\n<div style=\"float:left;width:60px\">\n<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/share\" class=\"twitter-share-button\" data-text=\"How successful was ipex 2014?\" data-via=\"w3pltd\" data-count=\"none\">Tweet<\/a><br \/>\n<script>!function(d,s,id){var js,fjs=d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0],p=\/^http:\/.test(d.location)?'http':'https';if(!d.getElementById(id)){js=d.createElement(s);js.id=id;js.src=p+':\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js';fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js,fjs);}}(document, 'script', 'twitter-wjs');<\/script>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"float:left;width:60px\">\n<div class=\"g-plus\" data-action=\"share\" data-annotation=\"none\"><\/div>\n<p><script type=\"text\/javascript\">\n  (function() {\n    var po = document.createElement('script'); po.type = 'text\/javascript'; po.async = true;\n    po.src = 'https:\/\/apis.google.com\/js\/platform.js';\n    var s = document.getElementsByTagName('script')[0]; s.parentNode.insertBefore(po, s);\n  })();\n<\/script>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Our review of Ipex 2014 from a web-2-print viewpoint &#8211; what worked? what didn&#8217;t? what can we expect for future print expos? w3p team tells all&#8230; What did the w3p team really think of Ipex?
