A trade print account can transform the economics of offering print to clients. Here is what to know.
Freelance designers who offer print management to clients face a pricing challenge: without a trade account, you are paying retail prices and either absorbing the difference or adding a margin that makes you uncompetitive.
What a trade account gives you
Typically 15-25% discount off standard retail pricing, access to the production schedule rather than the retail queue, and 30-day payment terms that simplify cash flow management.
Qualifying
Suppliers typically require evidence of business registration and a track record or credible prospect of volume. At printing.uk, our trade account application is straightforward and approval is typically within 48 hours.
