As a upcoming company we are in search of alot of things. One being the marketing product, which leads to my question, where is the best place (quality and price) to buy flyers, business cards, after job yard signs, mail outs, etc.. ?

Where to get it?? Welcome

My first suggestion would be the local Yellow Pages. After that the Internet.

Tell us more, What product are you marketing??

www.nebs.com has a lot of stuff with pre-designed logos they can print. Basically you choose one of their logos, fill in your information and they print it up for you. However, most people in business can spot those forms and signs and it can give an impression of a cheap business. That kind of impression can be fine, depending on your business.

If you're going for a more professional look with custom designed graphics and what-not I would reccomend that you seek out a printer that can offer you a total package rather than piecemeal each individual item to the lowest bidder. There are three reasons:
  1. You can deliver your artwork to one place and be done. Some places charge setup fees for getting your artwork ready to print and it can be a hassle proofing each and every item.
  2. You will be assured of a consistent look both in graphics and colors.
  3. You may end up getting a better deal on a large order.

I get my business cards done with Vistaprint. They are an online company and you can create your own design and upload it. They can also do printing on the back of the card. I use the back to show a couple of my products, like a small catalog. I think they will do yard signs as well. Their turnaround is pretty quick and their shipping costs are not bad.

LOL, the last time I got an discount offer from VistaPrint and tried to take advantage of it, the checkout process had one upsell after another (I'd click "no thanks, continue to checkout" and be presented with another one). After about thirty of those (no exaggeration), I gave up and signed out. Since then, they've sent me an e-mail every day, reminding me that I have a project pending. Perhaps if I'm stuck in an airport with nothing to do for a few hours, I'll sign on and finish the process!

I asked for a quote for a printing job from you and I still haven't gotten any response from you...I have since located another printer who got back to me the very same day with great pricing. There were several affiliate printers listed on your site; one did get back to me however they indicated the particular printing job I was requesting they couldn't fulfill.
