Finding a vendor for CD duplication services should be easy enough if you know what to look for. By avoiding these hiring mistakes, you can find the right company for your needs.
Not Doing Any Research
Going online and choosing the first company you find isn’t ideal. Don’t pick a vendor unless you’ve gone over the firm’s background. How long has it been in business? The longer the company’s been around, the better. That means they have the skill, network, and knowledge to deliver the materials you requested.
Not Checking for Extra Costs
Before you go ahead with the order, be clear about the costs. Aside from the package rate, will you need to shell out money for anything else? A trustworthy vendor is always upfront to you about additional charges. If you only find out about those charges later, that’s not a good sign. You’ll want to wiggle out of that contract instead.
Not Communicating Enough
Some companies tack on additional charges if you hand over printed materials that you want them to add to your packaging. That’s normal. However, to avoid any problems, you’ll want to ask about those charges first thing. By talking about these things, you can ensure a smooth business relationship with the vendor.
Not Asking About Submission Formats
Some clients send low-resolution images and a smattering of materials. But the vendor requires those files to be submitted in specific formats. Be sure to work with the company to ensure you comply with those conditions. That will help speed up the production process. Imagine if you had a lot of files. If you submit them in the wrong format, the company will likely ask you to re-submit them. If you don’t want to waste time and money, be sure to get the formats right the first time.
