Awards and promo, for every name on the list.

Plates engraved one per recipient, mugs wrapped edge to edge, and pens, caps and totes with the small print areas their methods allow, all from one back office.

Sound familiar?

Three jobs every awards and promo order brings.

Award wording arrives by email, one name at a time.

Recipients and their wording are rows on the order, so a list of forty stays one job with forty plates.

A pen barrel is 45 by 8 millimetres.

Each product carries its own print area and method, so a design is held to what the press can reach.

Small runs slip through below the minimum.

Method minimums are enforced at checkout: pad print and screen print start at 12.
