A deeper look into the printing process.
It Starts With YOU
Printing labels, bulk print, and promotional products is a passion of ours, if you couldn’t already tell. These processes take a lot of teamwork both inside and outside of our company. In fact, the whole printing process starts with you, your imagination, and your vision. With that said, to begin any project—you first need to reach out to us! From your initial contact, we can determine your goals, preferences, and lead you to the right team to achieve your desired results! You don’t have to be the creative type for our team to get the picture, but we WELCOME any and all ideas, suggestions, and concepts!
A Sample Here, A Sample There
We offer a variety of printing options—from promotional products, marketing collateral, and of course LABELS! Depending on your needs, you can expect some different type of support from our team:
- Promotional Items: If it’s promotional items you seek, you can expect to receive samples and ideas to help you narrow down your choices to pick the perfect product for your business or upcoming event. There really is no limit to what we can do for you, as we offer screen printing, embroidery, and even laser-etching!
- Bulk Printing: When it comes to brochures, flyers, business cards, and other bulk printing options—you can expect our team to walk you through all of the important details. This includes the quality of paper you want to use, the type of printing you prefer, and the design you desire. You could say we’re experts at bringing your vision to life!
- Labels: The process for printing labels is more involved than the above two printing procedures. With labels, we’ll need to work with you to determine what the labels are being applied to, the use of the product, how much you need to print, and if the labels will be machine or hand-applied! Once we have a grip on your needs, our team of experts can point you toward the perfect label product.
It’s Time to Design
The next part of the process will really get the creative types excited! If your project requires art or logo creation, our in-house graphic designer will team up with you directly to bring your idea into fruition. We understand that this step can take some time, but we won’t move forward until the artwork or design is PERFECT. Once your artwork is approved, we’re ready for production!
Making It Real
Well, we have reached the most intrical part of the process…production! This step looks a little different depending on what your project entails. Let’s break it down:
- Promotional Items: We’re talking tumblers, t-shirts, pens, etc. With these items, our team starts by ordering the products for printing. These items are then processed through by our team and your design or artwork is added to your products.
- Bulk Printing: For flyers, brochures, business cards, and other bulk print items—we are able to send your project directly to the offset department. This team handles all printing of this type and gets right to work creating your products!
- Labels: Depending on the type of label, our team will begin by either creating a flexographic plate, which is a flexible plate that is used to transfer ink and images onto paper or film OR the team will run your label directly on our state of the art digital press! These decisions are made earlier in the process based on the quantity needed, the preferred quality, and your budget!
From Our Team to Your Hands
We do have a big love for printing…but, we have an even bigger love for seeing happy and satisfied customers! The last step of the process really competes for our favorite part of this whole thing—putting the product in your hands! This is where you get to see the fruits of your imagination come to life after all the creativity and teamwork you’ve put in! We really enjoy seeing the pride, happiness, and joy that a well-printed product or label can bring to business owners and all customers alike! It never gets old. When your project is complete, our company offers pickup from our shop or direct shipping to your residence or business!
Let’s Round It Out
As we mentioned at the beginning, this intricate process takes teamwork—and our team is always here for you and your project needs. When you work with us, we promise you’ll love your finished product…and when you do, we’d love for you to review your experience with us on Facebook or Google. Any and all feedback is greatly appreciated as it helps us to improve our process (and business!) for the years to come. Without further ado, let’s bring your next idea to life.
