FAQs in Pricing
"Why don’t you have set prices for your products?"
Perhaps our most frequently asked question in the office… ‘how much for a sign?’
Unlike online companies with big warehouses of ready-made products, we design and print each item for your individual needs. This means you aren’t constrained to limited sizes or colour choices and can have any layout or content you like.
Although we don’t have set sizes, we can of course suggest the most economical size for your requirements. Some of our items do have a set base price, for example a flappy pavement board or a feather flag. However, the total price would depend on the design requirements; some people send us print ready artwork where no design in required, other people may have a loose idea and need it tidied up, whereas others may supply their logo and need the item designing from scratch. This is why we quote each item individually for you as it means we can always offer you the best price possible.
Although we can’t give you an instant price over the phone, we’re pretty speedy at sending you over a quote after you’ve enquired. Our quotes are no obligation and we’re always more than happy to tweak the costings for a slightly different size or material if it’s out of your budget. Just ask, that’s what we’re here for!
"Why are you more expensive than online?"
Although you can always find printed items online for a cheaper price, it’s very unlikely that they would be like-for-like. Most of the time when a customer says they found the same sign or banner online for a cheaper price, it’s made from cheaper products, to a set size and you have to wait for it to be shipped to you.
Here’s a list of the pro’s to buying your printed items from a small local business like Signspeed:
- Bespoke, custom products tailored to your exact needs
- High quality materials for products which last much longer
- Attention to detail and care from a small, local team
- Artwork checks for spelling errors and low resolution by real people
- Site visits in person to ensure correct sizes and products are quoted for
- Suggestions for improved artwork or alternative products to best suit your needs
- Environmentally friendly with less waste by making each item to order
- Lower carbon footprint by cutting out the need for international shipping
- Expertise and knowledge of the local area
- Everything in-house… from sales - to graphic design - to installation
Our design team can work as an add on to your company (most small companies cannot afford a full time designer so we can work with you to ensure all of your printed products are on brand and work for you)
