Creating a “Culture of Austerity”: Cost Saving Tips For Staff Members

The next installment of our cost savings feature focuses on reducing costs associated with graphic design and printing. Remember that these cost saving tips can make an impact, so please take them into consideration. You can make a difference!

*E-mail a pdf rather than hand out printed materials.
Many flyers, invitations and brochures are designed by our graphic designers and then printed and distributed. Consider e-mailing those materials to participants instead of sending or giving them hard copies. You can still have an eye-catching, professional-looking piece, but will save on printing costs and waste from excess materials that never get used.


*If you need to print materials, be mindful of the size of the piece you want printed.
If you print something smaller, you can perhaps fit more on a page, allowing printers to use less paper.
