When you’re making important decisions for your business, you might be thinking of ways to increase sales, optimize a smaller team or even how to keep up with increasing consumer demands. These are all valid goals, but what’s often overlooked are the ways you may be operating your printing and labeling procedures. With compliance still being a hot button, you can’t afford to run out of supplies, use the wrong materials or printing unreadable barcodes. Any of the aforementioned mishaps can lead to a domino effect on how your business operates – loss of productivity, returned goods, fines and ultimately loss of revenue.
