Small Business Saturday is November 28, and the postcards that bring people in have to land the week before.

That means design, proof, printing and mailing all happen in the first half of November. Greko designs, prints and mails postcards in the same shop, including Every Door Direct Mail routes around your store, so you can reach the neighborhood without buying a list. Start the holiday mailer now. https://www.grekoprinting.com/printing/mailing-services/

In artists' alley the table sits at waist height, and the crowd walks past looking at eye level.

A retractable banner behind your table puts your title where people are actually looking. It sets up in minutes and packs into its own case for the next show. Greko prints retractable banners and table displays for creators and exhibitors, matched to the art on your books. https://www.grekoprinting.com/printing/signs-banners/

A crowdfunding campaign ends with a promise: a date your backers are waiting for.

The printing is only half of it. Books still have to be packed and mailed, and every week between the press and the post office is a week of backers asking where their copy is. Greko prints comics and runs mailing services in the same shop, so ask us about getting the books out the door when you quote the print run. Tell us your backer date. https://www.grekoprinting.com/printing/books/

At a convention table, the sticker is the thing people actually carry home.

A die-cut sticker of your book's logo or a piece of your art ends up on a laptop or a water bottle, where it keeps showing your work long after the show is over. Greko prints custom stickers alongside comics, so the table merch matches the books. Ask about stickers with your next print order. https://www.grekoprinting.com/printing/

Holiday signs that go up in November get ordered in October.

Window graphics, sidewalk signs and banners all need artwork, a proof and production time, and the week before Black Friday is when every shop on the street wants theirs at once. Order now and your storefront is ready before the traffic arrives, not the week after. Greko prints business signs, window graphics and banners in Plymouth for shops across Metro Detroit. https://www.grekoprinting.com/printing/signs-banners/

If your art is meant to run off the edge of the page, it has to run past the edge in the file.

Pages are trimmed in stacks, and a trim can shift by a fraction. Extending the artwork beyond the trim line, the bleed, means the cut lands in art instead of leaving a thin white sliver. Keep lettering and important detail inside the safe area, away from the trim. Ask us for the bleed and safe area for your trim size before you start the final pages. https://www.grekoprinting.com/printing/books/

A real person looks at your graphic novel before it goes to press.

Files arrive with problems more often than people expect: a page out of order, art that stops short of the bleed, a spine that does not match the page count. At Greko someone checks the artwork and the proof before the run, so the fix happens on screen and not after the whole run is bound. Send your files early, and that conversation happens while there is still time before your date. https://www.grekoprinting.com/printing/books/

Saddle stitch or perfect bound? For most comics, the page count makes the choice for you.

Saddle stitching folds the pages and staples them through the fold. It suits single issues with a lower page count, lies open well and keeps the cost down. Perfect binding glues the pages into a flat, square spine that can carry a printed title, which suits graphic novels, trade collections and anything thick enough to sit spine out on a shelf. Swipe through both, then tell us your page count. https://www.grekoprinting.com/printing/books/

A graphic novel's spine is decided by its page count and its paper, long before anyone designs it.

Every added signature and every step up in paper weight makes the spine wider, and the cover has to be built to that exact width or the title slides off the edge. Send us the page count and the paper you want, and ask for the spine width before you finish the cover art. Greko prints perfect bound graphic novels in short runs in Plymouth, Michigan. https://www.grekoprinting.com/printing/books/

A convention date does not move. Your print order has to fit around it.

An overseas printer can quote a lower unit price and still miss the one date that matters, because shipping, customs and a proof round trip all come after the press. Greko prints short run comic books in Plymouth, Michigan, so your books are printed and finished close to home on a date you can plan a table around. Tell us your convention date and we will work backwards from it. https://www.grekoprinting.com/printing/books/
