Quick Printing Industry Market Research Now Available from IBISWorld

Los Angeles, California (PRWEB) November 19, 2011

The Quick Printing industry in the United States has experienced significant declines during the past 10 years due to the rise of digital products and media. This trend is expected to continue over the next five years, with industry revenue forecast to contract at an average annual rate of 0.7% to $ 2.7 billion, according to IBISWorld, the nations largest publisher of industry research. According to IBISWorld, the Quick Printing industry will enjoy several years of moderate growth, stemming from a recovery in business advertising and increasing per capita disposable income, which will spur household spending on quick printing services.

The US Quick Printing industry is becoming increasingly obsolete due to the swift decline in computer, software and peripheral equipment prices that has occurred over the past decade. Rapid advancements in computer technology have driven the drop in prices. As a result, consumers and small businesses are increasingly performing tasks that were previously serviced by quick print shops, in the convenience of their homes and offices. And they are increasingly favoring alternative mediums, such as online media and digital communications over printed materials, leeching away industry demand. Over the five years to 2011, revenue in the Quick Printing industry is expected to fall at an average annual rate of 4.8% to $ 2.8 billion, with an estimated decline of 2.5% from 2010 to 2011.

FedEx Corporation, a global shipping and receiving firm, dominates the industry. Unlike the operators in the Printing industry, the Quick Printing industry is largely composed of firms that do not actually specialize in quick printing services. Instead, the Quick Printing industry's largest players include office retailers, shipping and transportation companies and business support firms.

More recently, industry demand has experienced a shift toward higher-value services and away from basic printing and copying. In particular, custom and high-quality promotional and stationery products have increased their shares during the five years to 2011. The popularity in web-to-print services, in which customers design materials and send them electronically for printing, is indicative of this shift toward technology-heavy processes that will increasingly be covered by the industry.

According to IBISWorld analyst, Caitlin Moldvay, still, industry revenue is forecast to continue contracting over the next five years, falling to an estimated $ 2.7 billion. Although improving economic conditions will boost business demand for quick printing services and slow the rate of decline, customers' continued transition to the internet will limit industry gains. In response, quick printers are expected to increasingly expand their operations to other high-value service operations in order to diversify their revenue streams, says Moldvay.

RCNs Lehigh Valley High-Speed Internet Delivers the Fastest Speeds Available Today

Lehigh Valley, PA (PRWEB) September 09, 2011

Being fast, efficient and dependable is essential in todays hectic world. Shouldnt Internet connections be the same? The leading provider of high-speed Internet service in Lehigh Valley believes so. RCN uses the latest technology to deliver reliable broadband Internet service with speeds starting at 15Mbps, a connection thats 1.5 times faster than the fastest cable modem competitor, and up to 60 Mbps six times the speed of its closest competitor.

All of RCNs connection speeds are the fastest available in the market today, which means consumers can reliably and safely browse the Web with instant results, send the kids camp photos to grandma in a heartbeat and get essential documents to a client in record time. And theres no need to settle for a one-size-fits-all connection: RCN customers can tailor their online experience to their needs by selecting one of the three connection speeds available: 15Mbps, 25Mbps and 60Mbps. With connections this fast, music and video downloads take just seconds, gaming and telecommuting are seamless, and buffering pauses while watching videos or movies are eliminated. Even better, RCNs industry-leading speeds keep pace with busy modern families and bustling businesses, allowing multiple users to simultaneously connect to the Internet without the frustrating wait times or interruptions common to slower connection speeds. Which means mom can e-mail back and forth with work, dad can seamlessly stream his favorite films, and the kids can conquer their favorite video game all at the same time.

RCN delivers these lightning fast connections via its powerful fiber optic network, which allows the Lehigh Valley Internet provider to supply Internet speeds that redefine industry standards. Fiber optic technology transmits data over light waves; though fragile, the cables are less prone to interference and support greater bandwidth than metal wire, enabling them to carry more data over longer distances quickly and reliably. RCN was one of the first to use this technology, investing heavily to build an extensive, strong and reliable network designed to provide consumers with the fastest connection speeds and the best Internet experience. Although the technology is expensive to install, RCN does not pass the cost to its customers, a result of the companys dedication to delivering top-of-the-line service to Lehigh Valley consumers at the lowest rates.
