Common business issues
Canon Marketing Philippines, Inc. (CMPI), one of the top digital imaging solutions providers, gathered various industry leaders in its first ever technology and solutions expo. POP: The Pros of Productivity aimed to educate consumers and spearhead productivity and efficiency in the workplace.
Unwanted printing costs alone incur 1% revenue loss for companies, CMPI President and CEO Kazuhiro Ozawa noted. This remains true whether for enterprise or small businesses. Document management problems and other non-essentials total 1M pesos’ worth of annual loss.
Ozawa further remarked how data security and document retrieval continue to plague employees. Canon’s initiative, Pros of Productivity, thus sought to promote a more conducive work environment for all.
In addition, the Canon POP shed light on common “pain points” companies undergo daily. Through first-hand experiences, it revealed workflow inefficiencies business operators tend to overlook.
