Ordering |
Once we have an estimate in place that works with your needs and budget, we'll send you an order form to get the project started.
For the order form, we'll need to know:
- Project Name
- Billing / Shipping Address
- Method of payment you prefer
Options include:
1)
bank wire or online check, cash discount of 5% applies
or 2) card payment (mastercard, visa, amex), cash discount does not apply
Payment can be 100% (required for rush schedules) or a split 50% retainer and 50% remainder due when source material is ready. The 50/50 split is a good option if you anticipate a slight delay (a few weeks to a few months) between getting the templates and having the art ready to go, or if you plan to work on art prior to data (cd/dvd content, video, etc). We do ask that projects be completed within one year.
We'll supply the templates for art layout, and you'll need to upload print-ready artwork. Dropbox, hitail or google drive are great options for files.
Your ready to replicate formatted/mastered data also gets uploaded in the same way. For discs, the disc image includes all formatting and mastering and is the same file that you use to burn a check disc. Please do check all data and art before submitting to us for processing as charges will apply to process new source material.
