Maybe some of the online business cards printers aren't the most ideal. Presently digital printing can not replace quality hands on printing plus the expertise of graphic artists onsite and the experience of a knowledgeable production manager. There will always be room for both. It is true that online printing is more cost effective and less time consuming there will be times we have to sacrifice quality work. Currently ordering online is just another option to be more efficient and cost cutting. One of the online websites that I have found very user friendly and quality work is printsmadeeasy.com. Yes, it is true that they offer free business cards but without the logo of printsmadeeasy. What a good deal if you wanted to try their serviceat no cost. It is a good opportunity to as they say test the waters. What do you have to lose. I found your comments very informative. Maybe some of the online business cards printers aren’t the most ideal.

You nailed many of the positives and negatives our clients communicate to us about working with online printers. With the proliferation of online printing companies, printing has unfortunately become a commodity rather than a specialty. Many printing companies have sacrificed customer service, product customization and quality, in pursuit to provide the lowest price. We have a strong commitment to providing <a href="http://www.copycraft.com" rel="nofollow">top-notch customer service, complete customization and superior product quality</a>. While Copy Craft Printers was one of the first commercial printers to establish and online presence and embrace the internet we have not wavered on that commitment. We have kept our prices competitive with the other online printers and still offer personalized customer service, custom and high quality products. We like to think we are a local printer who just happens to have the majority of their clients spread all across the globe. Just because you are looking for the lowest price doesn't mean you should have to sacrifice service and quality. <a href="http://www.copycraft.com/ccpblog/one-commercial-printer" rel="nofollow">The price of a product isn't the only cost</a>! Again, great post! Thanks for informing others about the pros and cons of online printing. Great blog.. very informative!

I moved to Portland about 3 years ago and have continually heard great things about Penmor. When I was in Chicago, that's what I loved about the vendors I used. I knew either I would go on press, or they would be looking out for me. I look forward to working with Penmor soon. Follow along this week as I reveal how things went with the online cards.

Our clients and their designers usually like to be on press to do a final color check. If they are unable to be here, one of the owners of Penmor approves the color before printing. Having been in business for over forty years, Penmor has the reputation for high quality and great customer service. This is usually absent with an on-line printer. A quality product is a reflection of the reputation of any business. Penmor stands behind their product and guarantees satisfaction. The result - Professionals assisting Professionals.
