With new printing equipment, printing on demand is more viable than traditional printing regarding small quantities. The only reason you would need a traditionally offset printed job is if you need substantial amounts printed. Otherwise, digital printing is your best option.
For small businesses, this type of printing can be a cost-saving solution. Only when you need large quantities or if you have a job that does not require updating is offset viable. In almost any other case, digital printing on demand is the best way to go.
Print-on-demand, Stickers, and Decals
In the past, custom shape stickers were prohibitively expensive to produce for small businesses. They required you to print significant enough quantities to justify the cost of the production step needed to make them. Traditionally, all custom shape jobs required a die. This can alone can elevate the initial cost by hundreds of dollars. Not to mention the work needed to set up and operate the die cutter. We talk in much more detail about this process here.
The good news is that you can forgo all these steps and extra costs. Print only the stickers you need when you need them. Custom shape stickers are the perfect example of printing on demand!
