Every End is a New Beginning
"A little knowledge that acts is worth infinitely more than much knowledge that is idle." ~ Kahil Gibran.
It is in this vein that the Inside Track to Graphic Communication series has been written. It has been a taster to enlighten you, the buyers, about how print really works. For every topic covered here, in the basics of print, there are 5 more, not yet explored.
The series has taken you on a journey from start to finish, given you the inside info and taught you how to actively contribute to the success of a project rather than sitting helplessly on the sidelines.
So, to sum up 9 articles of tips and advice...5 Printing Pearls
Be a Team Player
Develop a strategic partnership with your graphic communication house. You are the expert in your field, they are the experts in theirs. Team up and work together. You'll make a formidable combination.
Be Involved
Learn as much as you can about the processes that need to happen from creative to fulfilment. Understand your role and your project will be more successful.
Be Selective
Choose your partners carefully. Don't be afraid to ask them questions. Make sure that they are capable of forming a strong, lasting partnership.
Be Informed
The more knowledge you have, the better decisions you will be able to make. When it comes to price particularly, get informed and remember, compare apples with apples.
Be Brave
Technology is changing everything we know in marketing. You can keep up; just don't be afraid to try something new. Talk to your graphic communication partner. They'll even hold your hand if you like.
