Define Your Project - Communications

In order to work most effectively with the university’s preferred print partners, it is important to think about the following questions before you select a print vendor so that your print materials can serve as tools for meeting strategic goals:

What is the purpose/expected result?
Who is my audience?
How will this be delivered (mail/hand carried)?
What is my budget?
What is my deadline?
Who is creating/providing photos and text?
Who is providing design?
How many do I need?
What format do I think will be most effective, i.e., newsletter, brochure, postcard, booklet?
What size piece do I envision?
How many colors do I imagine?
