When you're new to selling promotional printing (marketing materials like brochures, business cards and flyers), it can feel like a whole new world. Thankfully, the right supplier partner can serve as your personal tour guide. Look for these must-have services and you'll be on your way to sales success.
Easy Online Platform
Everything you need, all in one place.
As all distributors know, when it comes to promo orders, organization is key. This becomes even more important if you're unfamiliar with a product category or when you simply have a lot on your plate (and who doesn't these days?). Luckily, online platforms make organization a piece of cake. Instead of juggling never-ending forms, paperwork and invoices, all you have to do is log on and all your order info is in one convenient place. While it may not seem like a big deal at first, online platforms show that your supplier is innovative and up-to-date on the latest advancements in the industry.
Design Services
Not quite a Picasso? No Problem.
Brochures, banners and posters are a little different from traditional promos, as the imprint area is larger and more complex. Instead of simply sending logo art, your clients might ask for your input on designing their products, like what the copy should say and what kind of artwork they should use. If you're not sure, don't worry: Your supplier can help. Speak directly with design experts for recommendations and creative assistance, which your clients will associate with your services. After all, the right supplier partner should want to make you look good.
Top-Quality Printing
For full-color products, it's all about the print.
The most important thing to consider for promotional printing is the actual print. Poor printing equipment or lackluster finishing capabilities can quickly make or break your order, and faulty imprints will cause you to miss out on future orders. Prevent this from happening and delight your customers by partnering with an experienced supplier with a variety of print capabilities.
Customer Service
Get someone on the line when you need answers.
Let's face it: No matter how prepared you are, there will always be that one client question that you just aren't sure about. That's OK – you can't be an expert on everything, but you can ask an expert for help. Always ask about your supplier's customer service capabilities for peace of mind, knowing you'll be able to get a person on the line when you need to. After all, your ability to help your clients is sometimes dependent on your supplier helping you. Make sure your supplier partner is up to the task.
