Short-Run Labels: Kona Impact Saves the Day!

New employees of one of our clients came to us about 24 hours ago. They have a manufactured product that needed to be labelled in Honolulu 12 hours from when I write this. The labels need to be at the airport to be overnighted, so the whole turnaround times needed to be about a day. We received the final files at noon today, so the turnaround time had to be less than six hours.Watch Full Movie Online Streaming Online and Download

The had two plans: 1) hope that they could get same-day printing on the Mainland and hope (perhaps pray) that the Mainland printer could get everything to Honolulu overnight. There are too many variables, and many places for this plan to fail; 2) Plan B was to have things printed by us and hop a plan to Honolulu to deliver if the turnaround time was too long.

After a few minutes of talking, the conversation changed.

Can you have these done tomorrow? Yes, we said.

What about cutting? We can contour cut. This means we can cut to any shape you have, we said.

What about artwork? Get it to me in the morning and the job will be ready same-day, we replied.

We can even use a thicker vinyl, which will greatly facilitate application, we added.

The light bulbs went off, and everyone took a deep breath and smiled.

It’s now six hours after we received the final artwork, and our client is on his way to our office to pick up several hundred product labels. He gets to go home tonight, instead of spending several hundred dollars for a flight and hotel room in Honolulu, and we get to take some small amount of pride in helping his business.

A few side notes: 1) We did not charge a rush fee and never do. We are honored to have the business, and if we can accommodate a job, we do. 2) We take client confidentiality very seriously, so there is no name, and some non-essential details have been changed.

We specialize in quick turnaround on product labels for local clients. Our capabilities include full-color printing on vinyl, with or without lamination. Labels can be contour cut to any shape.
