PrintersLounge News [English]
Dear all, as most of you know we've asked our members and guests some questions about our network, features and costs. As a result of that survey we've encountered that our service seems to be well known today but our planned membership fees were probably too high for most of you. So we've decided to reduce our membership fees dramatically to that prices you have voted for.As most of you voted for a fairly full service fee of 100 - 150 €/year we've started a brand new Special Sponsor account now including really each and everything we can provide (and that's really a lot as you know!) for just 99 €/year (yes, it's true)! So please check out this new account and our list of all included features. You can find it at http://bit.ly/sponsors_e
Ask Alex is a new, free of charge consulting service of the PrintersLounge.
Based on the known problem, that many print projects often fail on missing knowledge, experiences or wrong planning of print buyers, design agencies but also printers (above all for high complex jobs from the packaging, value added printing and effects printing, security printing and similar jobs) we've developed this new kind of service. In most cases a specialist with a broad knowledge of materials, technologies across the whole production and value chain and much experiences in that sector would be able to analyze such high complex projects to reduce possible errors and incompatibilities, to save money and to increase quality. Above that such an expert would be able many times to come up with complete different concepts which could gain in much better results at lower costs.
But the major problem with such a service would be to find such an expert and to inspire him to do such a fascinating job for free.
