Seeking to Outsource Thermography/letterpress Project~ (New Jersey)

[avilatsuki]

Hi everyone,

I've just started my business last year in doing wedding invitations and have been doing prints in-house and on my own, but now that I am getting a client with an order of almost 300 I am needing to outsource printing. I feel that as with business and time, this would naturally happen so I'm looking for a company that can do thermography/letterpress/digital printing~

I've looked around google but haven't found any companies that have enough information on their websites regarding projects like these and if they have their own stationery or would I be providing it, etc.

I am located in New Jersey, United States and would prefer a local printer in around the area. New York City is alright as well. But I am flexible and enjoy the art of printing so if there are some awesome printers not around NJ, I may be able to look into outsourcing there as well.

Please advise! Thank you very much!!

-Sylvia

Hi Sylvia: I'm an invitation designer as well and have a printer right in NJ that I use. They do letterpress & offset although I'm not 100% sure they do thermography but check their website or call. The owners name is Mark Cordes and he's really helpful. Tell him Tina from Cayman said hello. Their website is www.cordesprinting.com

All the best with your invitation business!
Tina

Try advertising in sites for online job search. You could get great services from there.

Outsourcing could definitely help you with your business especially now that I can see you are expanding and getting bigger. You most definitely would need the help of other people's expertise.

You might also need to utilize tools for tracking the work because you don't have direct supervision and monitoring over these people. But, you will eventually realize that it's all worth it!
