Toronto (PRWEB) June 15, 2007 -- Terminal Van Gogh Ltd. (" TVG "), a leading data-driven 1:1 communication provider and co-manager of the Xerox 1:1 Lab, announced today that TVG will be featured at the launch event for the Reader's Digest Case Study in Montreal. (www.terminalvangogh.com) The event will feature Terminal Van Gogh, Xerox Canada, Reader's Digest Canada and Transcontinental Direct Montreal talking about their partnership in the 1:1 Lab to convert an existing Reader's Digest Canada direct marketing program into a data-driven, highly personalized communication package that drove dramatically improved response rates and sales.

Julie Northrup, TVG's Director of Sales, will be participating on the panel to discuss the build of the program and how Terminal Van Gogh was able to rapidly develop a sophisticated, targeted cross-sale package that was built, tested and deployed in less than four months.

Terminal Van Gogh programmed the profiling and affinity model of Reader's Digest into program code to drive the variable messaging and imagery in the catalogue, matching stamp sheet and 4 other customized matching items. "It was a pleasure working with Reader's Digest Canada's team," stated Ben Passmore, Terminal Van Gogh's Chief Architect for the program, "This program demonstrated how companies can convert their database into a data-driven, marketing program. The strategy and structure of the program flowed naturally from the intelligence locked in their database."

The results speak for themselves; the data-driven, fully customized package generated on average a 67% higher response rate and 74% higher sales over the control piece.

"We constantly look to lead the direct marketing industry and the Xerox 1:1 Lab program keeps us at the forefront in Canada and around the world," stated Mathieu Peloquin, Vice President, Marketing Product Lines, Reader's Digest Canada, "There is little doubt that customized communications is the future of direct marketing."
