Challenges and solutions for print suppliers
Every link in the print production chain has its own specific challenges. Whether you’re a print supplier delivering to resellers, a print manager working with end clients, or a brand owner needing print materials for marketing purposes, one question remains the same for everyone: how do you get the products to the right place as effectively, quickly and efficiently as possible?
In this article series, we discuss the challenges and solutions for each part of the graphic media chain. In this part: print suppliers.
Making your assortment widely available
As a supplier of print, signage or graphic materials, your goal is to sell your products as effectively as possible. But your main focus is on production — not on marketing or sales. So how do you ensure your product assortment is easy to find and order?
Whether you specialize in niche products or high-volume print jobs, you want to bring your offering to market efficiently. Often, you supply to print managers and resellers who resell your products to their own clients. A clear product catalog with real-time pricing helps them make fast, informed decisions.
Key characteristics of a print supplier:
- An entrepreneur with their own print production facility.
- Primarily sells to graphic resellers, not directly to end customers.
- Produces niche products (mass customization) and/or bulk orders (mass production).
Challenges for the print supplier:
- Effectively bringing the assortment to market
- Creating a clear and structured product catalog
- Making products quickly and easily available
- Accurately calculating the product offering
- Targeted communication with the right buyers
