You can expect to get good results from a printing project. If your intention is to promote a business or a product, printed materials are still every bit effective advertising options. It's important to realize though that before you can get your hands on promotional materials, a lot can happen in the print process itself.
Advertising materials don't just appear out of the blue on the same day that you inform a print company that you need them. There is a lot involved in the production process so it's only normal for project completion to extend beyond just a few days. This is why it is crucial to start with a plan before you even contact a printer.
If you already have a final design and actual specifications for your printing project you can expect your printer to get right down to business. For one thousand single page flyers, a printer can get things done in just a few hours. For a twenty page magazine printed in the same quantity, results can be obtained in a day or two. This rough estimate is a good basis when you need to foresee when a job should be finished. Keep in mind though, that rarely do jobs proceed directly into the print phase.
