The Cost of Printing is More Than Ink on Paper.
Your 14-cent sell sheet actually costs you 44 cents!
Purchasing and processing of printing, business stationery, and promotional products is labor intensive, costly, and inefficient to the point where a typical “14¢ data sheet ” can actually cost 44¢ when the cost of ordering, processing, waste, storage, fulfillment, obsolescence and other hidden factors are taken into account. Often the cost of managing print exceeds the cost of the consumables themselves several times over. This mismanagement adds to your printed material cost, eats away at your budget and reduces your bottom line profits.
Step 1 – Know What, When and How Much to Buy
- LCI Global takes the guessing game out of quantities. Our software utilizes your usage data to determine suggested order quantities so that you don’t over-order. Unused materials leads to obsolescence, waste and unnecessary cost!
- Replenishment reports suggest what products to print in combination and when it is advantageous to run the job – optimizing press time and run sequencing minimizes cost and maximizes your savings.
Step 2 – Use the Right Tool for the Job
- We do not own nor are we associated with any printing companies or facilities and are not obligated to use a printer that may not be perfect for your job and budget. We are dedicated to matching your projects production with the most efficient printing techniques available.
- Through our extensive industry knowledge, we are able to leverage a collaborative nationwide network of printers to print your projects closer to the end user. Lowering your distribution costs and facilitating transport assignment reduces freight cost and saves you money.
- For each job we manage, LCI Global is solely focused on identifying the appropriate manufacturing plant offering the most economical price within the production, delivery, and service parameters as defined by our customers. Our resources are dedicated to fulfilling your needs. Our role is not managing and filling press time and production lines (as printers and promo manufacturers must do).
