Top Factors to Consider When Booking an Online Printing Service

by Kristen White Blogger

Are you in a business that requires a considerable amount of projects and materials in print? From banners to bank cards, billboards, book publication needs, booklets, calendars, catalogs, decals, fine art prints, grocery bags, invoices, magazines, and t-shirts, among other things, you may need a quality printing service to cater to your design requirements. Online printers have become a reliable and easy way to order the printing products you need for your business or any other thing. There are several reasons to opt for online printing, including it can be much easier, cheaper, and faster. Nevertheless, since there are multiple printing companies competing for your business, it can be a little overwhelming to decide which one to go with.

To help you, we have created a checklist of things to consider when choosing a professional online printer for your printing needs.

1. Testimonials and Reviews

First things first, when looking for the best online printing companies, you have to take into consideration the testimonials and reviews, including the portfolio of the online printer. Reviews and testimonials matter. You would want to find a printing company that has expertise in producing your specific products. Look for reviews and testimonials from previous customers. Transparent reviews will give you an insight into how the printer deals with each of the customers and whether you will get the project as desired. Customers never hold back. They will say what they experienced from a particular service. So, check out the printer’s website and read the reviews. If you know someone who availed printing services from the same printer, you can ask about their experience.

2. Services they Offer

The next factor to consider is whether the online printer can work on your specific project. Today, everything requires a printing job, whether it is your office mug or business card, templates, product packaging boxes, company uniforms/t-shirts, and whatnot. So, the online printer you choose should work in your specific niche. Ask for samples of their work before finalizing them for your project. That is, if you want to print napkins for your restaurant, ask them for samples and some of their previous works. This way, you can evaluate their potential and skills. If you don’t like any of their samples, you can ask them to send in some printed napkins with your print. It will help you in determining their expertise level.

3. Transparent Pricing

The best online printing companies offer transparent pricing to their customers, especially when it comes to bulk work, such as book printing. If you are in the book business or want to publish a book, you would want a cost-effective solution because book printing can be expensive, given that there are so many pages. The top book printing companies are willing to show their pricing online. This way, you can make a budget and order the printing project accordingly.

4. Timely Order Delivery

You would not want any delays with your printing project. Whether it is 1000 business cards or five mega-size billboards, or a couple of hundred pamphlets, you would expect the online printer to deliver the project on time. Certain printing tasks are a little sophisticated and require more time than others. There is precision, accuracy, and efficiency involved in printing jobs. If the printer uses a skilled workforce along with the latest printing technology, you can expect on-time delivery of your specified project.

Most importantly, choose a printing company that doesn’t require you to place a minimum order. There are printers who only accept orders that are above a certain number. For example, a printer may only accept your pamphlet project if you order a minimum of at least 100 pamphlets. You would not want this. Choose a printer that is not bound by such aspects.
