Do you know where your money is being wasted in your sign, LFP, and print company?

16 October 2024

As a manager of a graphic printing company, you know that smooth administration is essential to the success of your business. Inefficient administration is a hidden cost. Time and resources that should be directed towards investments are swallowed up by a cumbersome and inefficient administrative system.

But who are the biggest culprits? Where are these hidden costs? It becomes painfully clear in the following examples, where we compare unfavourable situations with the ideal ones:

 

❌ You spend too much time and irregularly on creating quotes, making you less flexible and competitive than your competitors.

✅ In a snap, you create compelling quotes that generate margin and increase your chances of success.

 

❌ Your administration is a jungle, with no clear agreements, and you rely on scattered programs like Word and Excel.

✅ Thanks to a centralized database, you send invoices electronically and track the entire process effortlessly and in real-time.

 

❌ You have no clear view of planning, leading to expensive machines standing idle too often.

✅ Based on highly accurate calculations, you quickly choose the most economical production machine or decide to outsource.

 

❌ You don't include detailed information about CO₂ emissions on your quotes and invoices, or you spend hours doing so.

✅ You calculate CO₂ emissions at quote and order level in no time, regardless of volume, substrate, or production technique, creating a sustainable competitive advantage.

 

❌ Due to shifting deadlines, reprints, and fluctuating sales, you're always playing catch-up.

✅ You always stay in control and quickly intervene where necessary, thanks to clear dashboards and precise reports.
