If your recipient is a retailer or another company that will make use of your product to create another product, then you can be categorized as a supplier and should make use of the supplier’s catalog. The purpose for this catalog is to inform the reader of your products, their specific functions, and most importantly, their prices in bulk since they will most likely be ordering in large quantities.

When you try to switch up a few items every so often, you can retain their interest on your printed matter and products. Even if you would rather leave the content alone because either you are perfectly happy with it or have no control over it, there are still things that you can tweak a little just to keep your booklet looking fresh at every print order.

If you are currently using full color printing, you can request that the title can be done in metallic ink or be embossed. The added shine and character are sure to catch any eye and for a marketing material, you would want that reaction. If you are running a design studio, you have more wiggle room to change such details as the shape of the booklet or the piling on of some accessories. You can make it into a square or any other shape. When it comes to the binding material, you also find other alternatives to the usual spring binding just to give the booklet a different look.

Ways to Organize Catalogs for Easier Browsing

Fotolia 11960877 XS 300x241 Ways to Organize Catalogs for Easier BrowsingAt certain seasons of the year, stores often launch their catalog printing campaigns simultaneously. Voluminous glossies would soon pile into their customers’ mailboxes, competing for both the latter’s attention and pocketbook. In order for them to be given the reading preference over the rest, they may have to organize and streamline their layout so the reader can go through the catalog quickly and increase the chance of making a purchase off it.

Having the catalog in full color printing is a given and, in today’s competitive market, almost non-negotiable. Often, customers shop with their eyes so a colored photo on shiny paper is more likely to sell than a black and white one. Splashing on the cover the list or photos of items or sections in your catalog will also let them know in advance what is contained inside and will get them excited to pick it up first. Lastly, you can add more photos showing different product views so they will have an idea of the product’s features. The lesser questions they have about the product, the lesser their hesitation will be in spending for it.

Printing Tips for Restaurants

brochure 300x225 Printing Tips for RestaurantsRestaurants that depend on the nearby residential communities for patronage will have to rethink about the kind of flyer or brochure printing they send out. The typical black and white or two-color prints would rarely give them a chance to showcase the image that they want to project in their restaurant. Whether they are a homey mom-and-pop diner or a classy steakhouse, the minimal colors would not be able to tell much to the reader the distinct character of their restaurant.

 

Full color printing, on the other hand, give the restaurant owner the advantage of including high-resolution photos of their tempting dishes and their attractive interiors to give their readers some idea of the food and ambiance that they offer. Since photos are known to convey a thousand words, they can even limit their content to their menu, location details, and contact information. In the end, it may even come out more cost effective for them to print in lesser quantity as long as it is all in full color than avail of the black and white flyers in a large bulk that can hardly generate any income for their restaurant.
