The Magazine Production Company
A best practice approach…
different printers are required
for different print jobs which
ensures best pricing.
Look at us as independent print advisers. We take a best practice approach to ensure your magazine is printed on the right printing press, in turn, could offer the best price.

We are more than happy to work closely with your printing company or, if you don’t have a company to work with, why not allow us to get you a quote from one of our specialised printing companies.

If you already use a printing company, why not let us quote to see if we can better it? If we can’t at least we can verify your price is a good one. It’s nice to have the assurance as pricing can be very different.

Why do different printing companies offer different prices? We have found on many occasions that end-users have approached any old printing company to gain pricing to print their job and are often shocked at the price. That’s probably because they are not ideally set up to print your magazine as it could take longer to print yet smaller jobs, like leaflets and stationery, they could be better priced.

You could gain quotes yourself but do you know what to ask? Are you sure you are printing on the right paper?

Shopping round for pricing can take days, you end up comparing prices which aren’t like for like and you don’t really know what you are looking at. So why not let us help you?

Ultimately you want the best price and we understand print economics. Your product will determine which printing press would be best for the job. Often a slight change to the specification can often make the job cheaper to print. We have a bank of printing contacts and have built up business relationships that will allow us to home in who would be best suited to print your job.

If you approve the specifications and the price, we will liaise with the company on your behalf to ensure everything runs smoothly. The printing company will invoice you directly.

As a typical example, we met one of our client’s and found he was printing his magazine local to him. He asked us to take a look at his pricing to see if we can do better. We obtained a quote that saved him in excess of £30,000 per year in printing costs. The saving made covered the cost of our design and production services. An all-win situation.
