Why New Leaders Must Rethink Artwork & Label Management
Content Manager

When a senior leader steps into a new role, whether in operations, supply chain, or quality, there’s immediate pressure to deliver. But in the race to optimize processes, many overlook a silent driver of efficiency, compliance, and brand integrity: labeling and artwork management.

Labeling may seem unimportant, but it’s crucial to get right every time. When assessed and improved early, it can drive faster time-to-market, reduce compliance risks, and even boost revenue. And yet, for many global enterprises, labeling remains a fragmented, outdated process, held together by manual approvals, siloed teams, and error-prone workflows.

This is why our experts have put together a new must-read, free ebook: “How to Assess Your Labeling & Artwork Management Process: A Guide for Senior Leaders in New Roles.” Tailored for executives entering complex organizations, the guide reveals why labeling is no longer a back-office function but central to modern enterprise performance.


Why This Matters Now


In 2025, the stakes have never been higher. Global brands are navigating a minefield of evolving regulatory requirements (FDA, EU, ISO), heightened consumer expectations, and increasing pressure to digitize operations. Missteps in labeling don’t just slow you down; they risk fines, product recalls, and reputational damage.

On the flip side, consistent, compliant, and agile labeling processes create tangible business advantages. Consider this:

  • 23% increase in revenue is linked to consistent branding.
  • 70% reduction in label cycle times is achievable through automation.
  • Some enterprises save $12–15 million annually by modernizing their labeling workflows.

So the question isn’t if labeling should be a priority, it’s why it hasn’t been already.


A Roadmap for New Leaders


The ebook provides a practical, strategic framework to assess, audit, and evolve your organization’s labeling operations from day one. Inside, readers will find:

  • Common pitfalls that catch even the most experienced leaders off-guard.
  • A step-by-step guide to assessing current workflows, compliance, and technology readiness.
  • Insights into cross-functional collaboration, from marketing to regulatory to supply chain.
  • Forward-looking guidance on AI, automation, and digital transformation in labeling.


For leaders inheriting complex portfolios, managing thousands of SKUs, or operating across international markets, this guide helps turn initial overwhelm into strategic clarity.


It’s Time to Lead Labeling Like a Business Driver


The message is clear: labeling is no longer just a compliance function, it’s a competitive differentiator. It's key to understand this when moving into a new role to deliver faster wins, align teams more effectively, and unlock significant long-term value.
