The Benefits of the Custom File Folder

The Benefits of the Custom File Folder

When most companies run through the list of custom printing they will need, the items included are almost solely marketing items. While printed marketing material is essential to the branding and promotion of nearly every business, there is another side of custom printing that is often overlooked: printed material that can be used in your workplace.

By having customized items with your company logo on them for your employees to use, you’re creating an environment that takes a greater sense of pride in your brand. One type of item that you can create for your employees to use on a daily basis is a customized file folder.

Here at Color FX, we can create file folders that feature your corporate logo, as well as specific file names to help you and your team stay organized. The personalized touch and extra step will go a long way in keeping your employees invested in your company, long term.

Color Printing vs. Black and White Printing

Selecting a custom print marketing design for a business often consists of a long series of decisions that need to be made. One of the most common choices that anyone who is having printed material produced needs to make, early on, is whether to go with color printing or black and white.

Black and white is usually less expensive, making it seem like the front-runner, initially. However, the benefits that come along with having bright, vibrant, eye-catching printed material for your customers are well worth the slightly higher price tag.

For example, if you were looking into having catalog printing done, color printing allows you to display information in a way that is easier on the eyes of your customer. Graphs, charts and photos are able to be shown in more detail that will draw your potential customers in, as opposed to leaving them squinting and trying to differentiate between multiple shades of gray.

If the cost of color printing is still leaving you perplexed in your decision, consider looking into purchasing your color printing wholesale, from an online color printing company such as Color FX. With outstanding deals, you’ll get all the benefits of vivid color printing — without breaking the bank.

Bottom line: black and white printing is perfectly fine, when you’re a student who’s rushing to turn in a term paper, but, for businesses who are interested in projecting a professional image, color printing is almost always the way to go.

New Year — New Calendar

With 2013 quickly approaching, the season of trying to figure out the perfect New Year’s Resolution is upon us. One popular goal that people make for themselves is to get organized. The big key to becoming a more organized person is to have the right set of tools in front of you. For individuals who find that their lives feel scattered and all over the place, one organization tool that is absolutely essential is the calendar.

Since most people end up using multiple calendars for both home and work, creating a custom calendar to advertise your business is a great way to promote your company to your customers all year round. Calendars not only include strong, effective images of your business and the products that you provide, but can also include company information and the values of your business, all of which is sure to leave a lasting impression on your customer.

ColorFX is a high quality, low cost calendar printing company that allows businesses to develop customizable calendars to print for their customers. With a plethora of different pricing options and styles available to choose from, calendar printing can be affordable, as well as effective.
