Need to get printer for a business venture

Post by Claretta123 »

I have just opened up a new bar located in manchester. I want to carry out some door to door leafleting in the region to advertise my company. Ive searched around at nearby print outlets but the majority of them look too expensive and / or cannot perform the correct sort of print out. Im looking to get close to 50000 creased / folded flyers printed for the first marketing campaign. Might any one know of any decent places to visit to get this produced?

The only thing I can suggest is looking online for a place that specializes in printing flyers, brochures, and other business-related paper goods. A quick Google search tells me that you can probably expect to pay between $1900 and $2500 USD for that many (minus shipping, I'd assume), depending on how many folds you want, the weight of the paper, whether you're printing inside and out, etc. The couple places I looked at with "co.uk" addresses looked like they'd charge considerably more than that, so it may be worth paying more for shipping from elsewhere :mrgreen:
