Do we all Understand the Power of Print On Demand?

Still buzzing from an incredible experience keynoting the STAHLS' and STAHLS' Fulfill Engine POD Conference in Arizona last week. Talking about “The Art of Packaging, Product Design, and Delivery” to a room full of industry leaders was an absolute honor, and it was even cooler to hear how pumped everyone was for what we are building at Rupt for the Print on Demand and promo sectors. One of the biggest takeaways from my keynote at the conference was this: packaging, product design, and delivery aren’t just operational details, they’re part of the brand experience. 1. Localization at Scale: The future of POD is faster, more flexible fulfillment. Setting up production closer to the end user cuts lead times and enhances customization without sacrificing quality. The brands that nail this, like Rupt, will win. 2. First Impressions Matter: In e-commerce and POD, packaging is often an afterthought. But in a digital world, tangible products are one of the last places to make a real impression. A great unboxing experience builds brand loyalty before the product is even used. 3. Sustainability With Substance: Saying a product is “recycled” without transparency doesn’t cut it anymore. The next evolution of POD will demand full disclosure: real recycled content percentages, CO? impact, and supply chain visibility. Consumers are paying attention, and brands that don’t adapt will fall behind. POD is evolving fast, and the companies that prioritize speed, experience, and sustainability will set the standard. Huge thanks to Stahls for hosting an incredible event and bringing together some of the best minds in the industry. I had some pretty kickass conversations with: Rusty Pepper, Mike Schell, Davin Higashi, Maddy Alcala, Brian Rainey, Jayson Tompkins, Josh E., Kevin Oakley, Shane Snodgrass, Josh Kent, Seth Manthei, Ross Greenstein, Ben Jablow, Karthik Shanadi, Luke McGurrin, Jake Nickell, Brian Geffen, Alejandro Lozdziejski, Shaunak Amin, David House, Richard Nadel, Michael Snyder, Trevor Stahl, Ross Hunter, Theresa Hegel, Mike Kelleher, ? Gary Elphick, Blake Burroughs and more! (This crew is going to change the way the POD industry, operates, goes to market, and thinks about customization and I’m honored to be part of the movement!) #PrintOnDemand #Customization #Sustainability #Packaging #POD #Innovation #Rupt #PrintOnDemand #EcommerceTrends #SustainableBusiness #PackagingDesign #BrandExperience #CustomizationAtScale #SupplyChainInnovation #ProductDevelopment #CircularEconomy #ruptcompany #TransparencyMatters #ConsumerTrends #LocalizationStrategy #FutureOfCommerce #PODGrowth Photo credits: L.

?? A huge round of applause for STAHLS' Fulfill Engine for pushing the industry forward! ?? I am incredibly grateful to have attended this groundbreaking conference dedicated to #PrintOnDemand. The event brought together major players, including suppliers, distributors, and printers from across the industry, representing the software, equipment, consumables, processes, and sales channels needed to execute effectively. The sessions provided invaluable insights into how the POD market is positively disrupting the apparel and promotional products segment, and how businesses are adapting and profiting in real time. We had the privilege of experiencing new heat-applied technologies firsthand, delivered in a truly personalized and on-demand manner for every attendee right from the start during registration. Always an engaging way to kick things off! The perspectives shared by both speakers and attendees throughout the conference were incredibly thoughtful and relevant. A standout panel session, I might add ??, aimed at POD’s effect on apparel buying trends was moderated by PRINTING United Alliance's very own Apparelist Content Director, Cassie Green It's exciting to witness the benefits and challenges POD brings to the market as the process rapidly scales. Launching this conference once again proves that STAHLS' and their partners (and competitors) who brought this event to life are indeed industry thought leaders, championing this consumer-driven and #sustainable market phenomenon. The event delivered immense value, balancing educational content with unique peer networking opportunities (alpacas for scale Jed Seifert) It’s hard to believe this was the inaugural event— Can’t wait to see where this goes… Kudos to Team STAHLS for setting the bar high and leading the way in the Print on Demand revolution!
