Manage Your 2013 Inventory

Actively managing your inventory of business stationery and forms is a great way to avoid the stress of last minute ordering and to stay within your printing budget. • Estimate a 3-6 months supply. We recommend you order enough to last between three and six months. More than a six-month supply could mean that you are tying up money in inventory and, in some cases, running the risk that the printed piece may become obsolete. Less than a three-month supply and you are foregoing cost savings that result from a longer print run. An easy way to estimate is to ask yourself how many of this item you use in a specific interval (per day, per week, per month). • When you order an item, ask to have it included in our reorder reminder system. We’ll check your order history, predict when you might be running low, and notify you when it is time to reorder. • When reordering, ask us to price additional quantities. Our computerized estimating and pricing system makes it easy to recall a job from history and to produce a current quotation using multiple quantities. Then you can evaluate the tradeoff between storing an item and the cost savings of a longer print run. If you need help developing reorder quantities, contact us at 303.320.4855
