In today’s print market, volumes continue to decline, print runs are shorter and lead times have decreased. Add to that the steadily increasing costs of paper, ink, plates and related supply expenses and sustaining profitability becomes ever more difficult.
The best way to maintain profitability with lower volumes and higher costs is to increase margins. And a way to accomplish that is by increasing your product’s value to the end customer. If we compared print to diamonds, we would see that a raw, rough diamond will dramatically increase in value (as much as 10x) to the end customer when it is cut and finely finished. In like manner raw printed output increases in value when it is delivered as a finely finished booklet, pamphlet or magazine. So, an answer to unrealized print profits may lie in adding or upgrading the fine-finishing component to your print operation.
