Saving Money on Print Newsletters

The print newsletter continues to be an effective communication piece for local offices. The good news is that local offices should still be able to provide a quality print newsletter within budget. Here are some money-saving tips:

* Look for creative ways to distribute your newsletter. Save postage costs by putting the newsletter in racks at the local supermarket, café, hardware store, Co-op, or other public area.

* Use K-State Research and Extension's print shop to produce your newsletter. Because of quantity pricing, the Duplicating Center can produce your newsletter for less, and local offices don't have to pay the lease cost, copy charge and supplies for your own machine.

The Duplicating Center also is looking into the feasibility of providing distribution racks to counties at no charge. Learn more about the Duplicating Center's services by visiting www.communications.ksu.edu , or call Greg LeValley at 785-532-1158
