Streamlining your Print!

It’s amazing how an excellent printing service can transform a business. Strong printing improves your messaging and strengthens your reputation with clients. Best of all, a professional print service takes all of the guesswork off of your plate, giving you more time to focus on the core of your business.

That’s why it’s so shocking when printing is treated as an afterthought at the end of a project. Successful businesses know that it is a crucial element that can really make or break a project – are you treating it with the importance it deserves? If you’re not prioritising your print, you’ll soon find your printing costs spiraling out of control as you’re forced to apply quick fixes to last-minute problems.

Ask yourself the following questions:

•  Is your printing taking too much time to come to life? How much time would you like it to take?
• Is your print buying process disorganised and time-consuming? What would make it run smoother?
• Do you want to spend less time on print buying, but end up with stronger results?
• Do you feel that the quality of your printing is inconsistent or even inferior compared to your competitors?
• How can you distinguish between a good and a very good printer?

It’s only once you gain clarity on these questions that your project will run smoothly and deliver the expected results. Thinking about these points will also help you better equip your printer. When they have the most accurate information and are clear on your expectations, they can advise you on your best options.

Benefit from your printer’s expertise

Let’s face it – we all have our own areas of expertise. You excel in your business, and printers excel in theirs. You’re not a printing expert, and that’s ok! That’s what your printer is there for – they’ll give you their honest feedback, and you’ll benefit from their expertise.

No two businesses are alike, so a genuinely exceptional print and design service needs to be completely bespoke, not based on templates. They’ll take as much time as is necessary to understand your requirements before they begin work on any project, and familiarise themselves with your existing branding and marketing materials.

 If something has worked particularly well in the past, they might advise you to build on that. If not, they can offer alternatives and help you with a more effective solution. Investing a little extra time early on in the printing process can save a lot of time and money further down the line.  

Remember – the cost of print is always significantly more than what you pay your printer. The hidden costs of buying print are very rarely assessed, and they’re not always clearly understood!

Your relationship with your printer is a partnership, as they become an extension of your own team. Your successes are their successes and vice versa. They are there to help, understand, and keep print-related costs in check. Their creative eye and skill will make your printed materials look their best and convert more clients. The best printing companies must be able to offer support with everything, from marketing and data management to distribution and mailing.

So, are you ready to get more from your printer? Do you want your print to take less time, be more effective, and look as good (or even better) than your competitors? I can help take your printing to the next level, saving you time and money.
