Hi all

As most of you will know we provide sales development help for companies across the UK.

Increasingly due to prospect profiling our clients are looking at small highly target promotions and hence we need a supplier who can make promotional items is small numbers without charging silly prices.

Products needed are things like

Mugs 50 at a time
Tins 50-100 max at a time
Mint Tins 100 max at a time
T-shirts 20-50
Misc/ specials 10-30 at a time
The problem we have is not getting these items but the small numbers our clients require without paying silly money i.e. 118 mugs in 2 colours we can order for £2.00 each + £10.00 delivery but if we try and order 50 we are quoted £3.60 each!

If anyone knows who can do this we are also willing to:

Add them to the Group websites
Include them in our newsletters
Add than as a strategic partner in all proposals

Hi Dave,

With lower quantities on many products the set-up costs will always make it unrealistic to get low costs. Plate costs on a single colour can be £30 + with silk screening and pad printing etc. so this will often limit you on what you can buy at a realistic cost for low quantity runs. There are ways to get around some items such as buying pre-printed doming labels with your design and then using them for the likes of mint tins etc. These might last 4 or 5 promotions but are very effective and wat many promotional suppliers might have used in the first place.

There are items such as mugs, keyrings, fridge magnets, mousemats that I could help you on if you give me more details of what might be needed ongoing.

Good luck,

Andrew
