Looking for ways to save money on print collateral without cutting quality corners? Lithographics is here to help with ordering optimization solutions. Figuring out the right quantity of collateral to order can be tricky. After all, if you order too much, you’re left with waste, and if you order too little, your campaign may not be as successful, or you may have to pay even more for a rush order. That’s why we make it easy to optimize your orders and make the most of every marketing dollar!
Here are a few tips we recommend to help you order the “just right” quantity of printed collateral:
- Update frequency. Before ordering collateral, consider how often each piece will need to be updated. For materials that are likely to change regularly, it’s more cost-effective to order smaller quantities more frequently. For materials that are unlikely to change for a while, you may be able to order larger quantities all at once without fear of waste.
- Just-in-time printing: Excess stock can mean extra costs in storage, organization, and labor fees, not just the cost of printing. Instead, try aligning your ordering with a “just-in-time” strategy so you’ll receive exactly what you need, exactly when it’s needed.
- Inventory management: A reliable tracking system can be worth its weight in gold when it comes to avoiding ordering mistakes. Regularly monitoring inventory levels helps ensure you don’t over-order or under-order.
While bulk ordering may save you money on a general, per-piece basis, it doesn’t make sense for every situation or every campaign. Instead, Lithographics offers a wide range of solutions designed to meet every need, every time.
