Defining Short Run Printing

In short run printing, the job order can be processed at a minimum. Large format posters can be printed in single units while offset products can be produced at a minimum of 250 pieces.

Offset products can now be ordered in a more manageable number while digital printing skips the other procedures observed in pre-press. This makes printing faster too. It can also be relatively cheaper since plates are no longer used in this process.

See how short run printing can work for you and your benefit. Whether offset or digital printing, you can maximize this printing service to your advantage.

Individuals

•Individuals take advantage of small minimum orders to have their personal printing needs done professionally.

•Wedding invitations, postcards, business cards, and even sticker labels can be printed on high gloss paper with UV coating that cannot be bought on any stationery store or replicated by ordinary desk jet printers.

•Aside from that, printing a small order of a hundred or more pieces cost much less per unit than printing it at home, not to mention the time and hassle you save from having to cut and print such materials yourself.

Small Business

•Advertising requirements of small businesses can be met adequately by short-run printing services. Large-format, high quality posters can now be ordered individually, making it perfect for use on one-day events.

•It can be used too for specific places such as the store front, indoors or outdoors. There are a variety of materials meant for such purposes and can even accommodate your need for huge poster sizes.

•Short-run printing can also be used for stickers and labels. Take advantage of short-run printing of stickers and labels to change your packaging material every season or for thematic promotional campaigns. Simply attach the season themed sticker to your generic packaging to make it more fitting to the occasion.

•It also makes growing advertising trends like direct-mail-marketing accessible for these small businesses. Being small, these businesses can offer more personalized prints and promote more personal services for customers.

•Because they can print in small quantities, they can send their prime customers product specific-brochures that match their interest, instead of simple catch-all product listings.

Large Businesses

•Although large businesses still use wholesale printing for most of their advertising materials, short-run printing is ideal for market testing certain ideas. Instead of gambling thousands of dollars launching on large scale advertising campaign that might flop, businesses can opt to print a few hundred pieces to test how a sample audience will receive the campaign.

•Having the ability to obtain valuable information through short run printing will allow the company to adjust their marketing to optimize effectiveness. This will save the company from disappointing results or thousands of dollars to redo their advertising.



•Large businesses can also use short run printing for their business need. Business presentations can be printed on impressive, high gloss charts that are easier to set-up and pull-out than LCD projectors.

•An exhibit of the company’s history can be proudly displayed through floor-to-ceiling vinyl installations in the lobby. Also, short-order publishing too allows a specific handbook for every division, regardless of size.
