The Cheap But Practical Guide To Calendar Printing

Going cheap in calendar printing does not mean stripping every single significant feature in your calendars

. You can be cheap but practical with the process of printing your calendars to get a good balance of cost effectiveness and appealing design. In this special guide to calendar development, I am going to guide you on how to reduce your printing costs in a practical manner so that you can still maintain a good quality look and design for calendar printing.

1.Print your calendars early First up, let us time your calendar printing right to get cheaper quotations. Calendar printers typically raise their prices for production right around the last quarter of the year since this is when most of the demand for calendar printing starts. So to avoid this rise in prices try to print your custom calendars at around the 2nd or 3rd quarter of the year. This is the dead times for calendar printing and you will have a high chance of getting cheaper calendar printing quotations this way.

2.Use your own resources when possible To further reduce the costs of calendar printing, you should try to use some of your own resources or talents when possible. If you can create your own graphics or take your own photographs, it is best to apply these talents to your custom calendars. Also, if you can write and do layouts quite decently, you should really try out doing your own calendar designs. By doing some of the work yourself and eliminating the need to hire other talent, you can save a significant amount of money in the production of custom calendars.

3.Look for free resources on the Internet You should also consider looking for free resources on the Internet. There are actually tons of free design elements that you can get quickly online. From calendar templates, specially styled fonts, free clip-arts/graphics and even sample content , you can virtually create your own color calendars almost perfectly with all free those things. You wont have to pay for any of these things really as long as you look hard enough. So if you want to save some money and even some effort, try to get these free resources on the Internet.

4.Know where the cheapest printers are Sometimes, cheap calendar printing means knowing where the cheapest printers are. This means going for a shopping run for calendar printing companies and looking for the best and cheapest quotations. You can easily do this by just doing your search online. All the best calendar printers are online anyway, so use the speed of favourite search engine to help you get all the different price quotations for calendars and try to choose the most affordable one for you.

5.Use cheaper materials on the inside pages Here is a simple trick that should be easy for you to implement. You can try to go cheap with all of your custom calendars by just using cheaper paper materials on the inside pages of the calendar, while maintaining the thick and glossy outer cover. This maximizes the impact of your marketing calendars while at the same time reducing the cost of the inside pages (which technically does not do advertising).

6.Use smaller calendar configurations Of course, size does matter in the cost of calendar printing. You can try to use smaller calendar configurations without really altering the design or your other choices in calendar printing. This will reduce the cost of your color calendars without really reducing the overall look of it. It is a simple concept of smaller dimensions equals smaller price of course.

7.Try to save on binding costs Lastly, you can try to save on your binding costs for your custom calendars. Instead going for those expensive perfect binding or ring binding methods, a simple staple binding method can be a lot cheaper. Just ask your calendar printing company for the cheapest binding method and you should be all set for cheaper calendars at a decent quality.

Great! Now you know how to be cheap and practical with your calendar printing. Good luck!
