Printing in full color or black and white or leaving one side blank are part of the decisions that you will have to make when designing your piece.
Our recommendation is to use full color on both sides. That allows for a more diverse message to be shared with your prospects.
There are two options:
Finishing: Finishing refers to the work that is done to the piece once it is printed. In the case of a postcard, FINISHING refers to whether there will be a coating applied on top of the printing.
If there is a coating, will the coating be shiny- mirror-style or matt?
Reasons to apply a coating on top of the printed piece: - Aesthetic - Product protection
The most common option for postcards is to select Gloss UV but it is entirely up to your taste and use of your piece.
FINISHINGS: These are coatings Coatings that are applied on the cardstock once the printing has occured.
REASONS TO APPLY FINISHING: 1- One reason is aesthetic. Mirror-gloss looks good, and matt finishing is trendy. 2- A second possible reason is functional. handrwiting or printing on an inkjet printer on top of a piece that has received gloss/matt finishing might not be possible, so if you further need to add information to a pre-printed postcard, applying finishing might not be the best option.
Bundles: What we do when you order a bundled order is make groups of 100 postcards and keep them together with a rubber band or a plastic band.
Purpose: Unites States Postal Services require your mail to be bundled when presented to USPS to be delivered through the Every Door Direct Mail (TM) program.
Benefit: Ordering bundles will save you a lot of time in mail preparation
Production Time: What does this item mean?
If you have a specific in-hand date that you must meet, we suggest that you call us at 1-877-421-0668 so that we can try to meet your requirement.
As a general rule, Production Time is the time that it takes ColorCopiesUSA to manufacture your custom postcard. All products that you order from us are custom made, therefore until you have approved the artwork, we have cleared questions regarding your order, your order does not go into production.
Once your order goes into production, it is when PRODUCTION TIME starts to count.
Pick-Up / Shipping: After your order is ready at our warehouse, you can either pick it up at our office, or ask as to ship it using whichever offered method. The time that it takes for you to pick up or the shipping time is not part of what we call PRODUCTION TIME. The production times as posted are best average estimates. Often we will have your order ready ahead of time, but production conditions could also push times a bit.
