Marketing Collateral
 Image Marketing & Communications has 25 years experience in writing, designing and producing dynamic printed and electronic marketing materials. We have a thorough knowledge of the printing process, and the various players in the printing industry, enabling us to place your job at the right printer at the right time.
Whether it is a “Docu-Tech” project, an in-house newsletter, a brochure, a catalog or a direct mail piece, we can make sure that your project is handled properly, with clarity of production, and efficiency in pricing. We do this by placing your printed collateral on the proper digital, sheet-fed or high volume web presses.
Here's what the IMC Marketing Collateral Services can do for you:
| 1. |
Review all printing needs on both, long-term forecasting, and the “next-job out” basis. |
| 2. |
Gather competitive price quotations from appropriate vendors. |
| 3. |
Review awarding factors of price, delivery, quality, and service from vendors. |
| 4. |
As each printed piece comes up for planning we help determine the size, format, binding/folding options, color, paper selection, and all other details necessary to ensure the most efficient, usable, marketing tool to communicate your product or service. |
| 5. |
Place the marketing project with the proper piece of equipment for most efficient pricing. |
| 6. |
We would have daily (if necessary) contact with you or your staff to assess your needs, to gather information, and give you and update on the progress of the work in various stages of the production process. We are never out of touch… We are available via, phone, voice, mail, e-mail, and cell phone and will return your calls and inquiries promptly. |
| 7. |
Pre-flighting your print production files to ensure that all necessary elements are being delivered to the vendor with no last minutes omissions creating unnecessary delays. |
| 8. |
You receive "ONE" stop shopping for your printing needs but still maintain the control of the variety of printing services you need for your marketing materials. |
How Much You Ask…?
This is the most amazing part of this service… There is absolutely no charge to you, at all, for the basic service!
Sounds too good to be true? Someone has to pay for this!
Someone does… but not you! Image Marketing & Communications has contracted with almost two dozen suppliers (and more are being added), that are willing to pay us for placing your work with their companies.
Does that fee get added to my price? No, it’s money they would have been paying somebody on their staff anyway.
In Fact, It Saves You Money! A lot of money…
| 1. |
You can reduce your staff by outsourcing the print buying needs of your company. |
| 2. |
You not only save salary, but insurance benefits, taxes and other overhead costs. |
| 3. |
And the prices you pay for the printing may very well be less than what you have been paying. |
There are some additional fees… But they are strictly “optional” and on an “as-needed” basis!
