I've just started using
signs 365. I have a client that is a company with their own design dept. They sent me print ready artwork for 5 48" x 96" banners. My s365 order with shipping cost me $210 and I charged the $475 so that's 126% mark up. Now they are sending me one offs. Just curious how you all think about pricing in these scenarios?
That’s a fair markup on the larger order, especially since you didn’t need to manage the design. With one-offs, the challenge is that setup, communication, and file checks often require the same effort as bulk jobs. That’s why many printers apply a higher margin, set a minimum charge, or include shipping and product-specific offers to balance costs. Another option is working with providers like
EzSignStore, who not only handle printing but also offer custom design support. This allows you to improve client artwork, streamline the process, and maintain consistency.
