What is the Return on Investement for Transmission?

Assume that:

• the cost of the person who handles illustrator files is $40,000 a year
  (including salary, benefits, and overhead)
• Step 1 : Opening one Illustrator file and cuting and pasting all the text into a word document takes on average 4 minutes
• Step 2: Re-importing the translated text into one Illustrator file takes on average
  6 minutes.

Transmissions fully automates Step 1, and automates 70% of Step 2.
Based on the figures above, the table below outlines the savings from using Transmission.

The first 200 files will pay for the software.

Number of files processed	Time saved	Dollars saved
200	26.0 hours	$546.66
500	68.3 hours	$1,336.67
1000	136.6 hours	$2,733.33
5000	683.0 hours	$13,666.67
10,000	1366.6 hours	$27,333.33

• the fast turnaround
