As consumers welcome in the digital age where information is at their fingertips, they increasingly want to customize a lifestyle on their own terms and want to see results fast. Today, everything is about personalization and making a product "your own." It's no wonder that 76% of Millennials, who will hold $2.45 trillion dollars of spending power by 2015, want a two way conversation with brands so that they can do just that – personalize their products and experience.
"With the Skinit partnership, we are empowering our consumers to customize their staplers in a way we could never design on our own. As the leading stapling brand in North America, we are always looking for ways to increase our connection with consumers, and this technology allows us to offer a unique solution," said Adam Smith, Director of Marketing for the Swingline brand.
