For some unknown reason, well perhaps it is because I am the muppet who never ever moans, my boss always seems to give me the rubbish and annoying tasks. Last week he asked me to find him a printing company that was both professional and cheap. Well thank you – that is a simple task! With so many companies to choose from it was extremely hard to know where to start.
One of the main problems that I had was with regards the costs as I had absolutely no idea how much everything should cost. We work in the financial services industry and not the printing industry. I decided to phone a number of the local companies asking them for a basic price for poster and cheap flyer printing – I gave them all exactly the same specifications etc.
The prices varied considerably from company to company – it was if a number of them actually did not want to take on the task! In the end I re-contacted the six cheapest and I asked if I could see examples of their previous work plus telephone numbers of some of their existing clients. Only one company provided me with all of this information and that ended up being the company I chose. They were also the company offering the most affordable prices plus I happened to think that they provided the best customer service – therefore the decision was a bit of a no brainer really!
Thus far we have used them for cheap leaflet printing, flyer printing and poster printing and they have produced a top job – phew!
If you are looking for a printing company always ask to see examples of their previous work and always ensure that you have a meeting with them prior to parting with any of your hard earned cash – it worked for me!
