These postcards represent a significant cost to produce and to service to the customers, our goal is to deliver the top-quality possible product for the lowest price possible to make this service accessible to smaller businesses and start-ups.
Thanks to our gang-run printing, we can save huge amount of time and resources, that ends up drastically reducing the price of production and turning into a cheaper EDDM® postcard for you. Quality and speed is always preserved during this gang-run-print method implementation.
While other providers are focusing in investing millions promoting their EDDM® postcard printing services, and over-inflating the cost of production by this extra-marketing expense, we rather invest in equipment, technology, intuitive workflows to keep our product lower cost and let the customers to be our main word-of-mouth promoters.
While Vistaprint is a well-known name, definitely one of the top printers in the market, its no surprise that their EDDM® postcard pricing will often come with a premium for their brand recognition and reputation. Their brand recognition marketing invests millions of dollars a year, maybe a month, to keep the business trend, and we all know who will pay for these promotions.
We are still far from being as popular as they are, and far of spending millions in brand recognition. These savings are passed on to the customer.
NextDayFlyers is currently offering very good pricing for fast shipping EDDM® postcards, but their focus is the fastest speed possible (Next Day Printing) and that costs an extra buck or two. We rather provide customers with the option of slower print speeds and much affordable postcards.
Well known local print stores like Staples and Office Depot are also in the game to offer EDDM® postcards along with many other products. These providers can print 50 to 500 postcards and cut it, pack it within the same day, for a much higher prime. Usually color copier machines are used to produce these postcards, quality is good, but we all know offset processes are other level entirely.
Our focus is to provide the same service, a bit slower but HIGHER QUALITY and MUCH cheaper, advantage comes when you need bulk printing, instead of just 50 to 100 units. Their pricing reflects a regular commercial color copy printed in thick paper, full color both sides, while CheapRushPrinting focus on bulk, higher quantity, and perfect finished EDDM® postcards that will pop up over all other marketing flyers in the customer mailbox.
