3 Reasons Not to Use Hotel or Convention Copy Services in Nashville

On April 2, 2010 • Leave a Comment

Nash-Vegas is a destination city.

Companies all over the country hold conferences and conventions here throughout the year because Nashville is a great city to visit, has wonderful hotel and convention facilities, there is lots to do and the people are just plain nice.

One of the hidden downsides to having a convention in Nashville is the highly inflated cost of convention copy services and printing. Because most companies have materials printed in town to avoid expensive shipping costs, they unknowlingly fall prey to the high costs of hotel and convention in house copy services.

Here are 3 reasons NOT to use hotel or convention printing services and some tips on ways to DRAMATICALLY save  on your printing:

1. Hotel and Convention copy and printing services have huge upcharges. Because they believe you are captive, have to have it and have few options, prepare to get gouged!  The copy company upcharges to cover the overhead and the hotel or convention center takes as much as a 50% cut. The net result: you pay 50-70% higher for your printing than you otherwise would.

2. If you do ship materials to the hotel and ask for it to be delivered to your meeting room, hotels and convention centers will often stick on a PER-BOX delivery fee. This can range from $8 to a staggering $50 a box. The nicer the facility, the higher the fee.

3. On-site copy services rarely have the equipment or the staff to turn jobs around quickly or produce the full range you need. Need a major change to a convention presentation binder? Need it done on the spot? FORGET IT!
