When it is a question of a reprint, IPG’s experts think like a publisher. Reprint advice is not based on current sales volume alone; stock levels and demand at the wholesalers, sell-through and on-hand quantities at the retail stores, industry trends, and the time of year are also considered.
IPG also operates a very aggressive freight logistics program. Client publishers can usually save 65 percent or more on published freight rates, both for copies shipped from the publisher’s printer and for copies sent in bulk from IPG’s distribution center. Our specialists will make all the necessary arrangements and will see to it that the shipping cartons are up to standard and are properly marked.
