class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cHow much do product labels cost?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is the most common question that a brand owner or procurement team asks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">They usually want a clear answer like, \u201cLabels cost $0.50 each when you use material X and embellishment Y, and $1 if you upgrade to material A and embellishment B.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Unfortunately, label pricing is rarely that simple. Achieving the label you want isn\u2019t always a linear process, and it can be influenced by variables like order size, material choice, ink selection, finishes, embellishments, SKU complexity, adhesives, run size, print technology, supply chain factors and more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The worst approach is to pursue lower prices in a vacuum. The process needs to be more holistic than that, and you can get that guidance with a good label partner. By understanding your goals, they\u2019ll find ways to make your entire label experience simpler and more cost-efficient.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Labels aren\u2019t purely an expense. They\u2019re an investment that affects how consumers perceive your products.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To many consumers, your label is an extension of your brand. In fact, label branding is often what persuades them to add products to their carts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Even minor label material and design changes have a major impact on how consumers perceive products at point of purchase.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After you factor in brand equity, consumer perception and sales uplift, minor cost discrepancies often become inconsequential.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Here, we\u2019ll explain why brands shouldn\u2019t take a \u201cprice-first\u201d approach to designing labels or partnering with a label printer.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And, for the price-conscious brands out there, we\u2019ll reveal a few ways your procurement team can cut costs without compromising your branding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Accurate label pricing requires answering the following questions:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Can I reduce label costs without compromising my brand image?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Without changing the label, which process efficiency options can cut costs?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>How does long-term planning mitigate supply chain delays?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The worst approach is to pursue lower prices in a vacuum. The process needs to be more holistic than that, and you can get that guidance with a good label partner. By understanding your goals, they\u2019ll find ways to make your entire label experience simpler and more cost-efficient.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-pullquote padding-top-xs padding-bottom-xs\"><blockquote><p>Saving money on your labels should never compromise your brand.

For example, many salsa brands differentiate via colorful graphics printed on relatively simple, unembellished paper or film labels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Other times, you may have to invest in more expensive label finishes and decorations to ensure your packaging story strikes the right note for your product category and target audience. Top-shelf liquors often require top-shelf labels to justify their price point.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Many brands understand labels are inextricably linked to their image and develop one-of-a-kind label concepts like:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.resourcelabel.com\/products\/custom-embossed-product-labels\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Leveraging embossing and debossing<\/a> to&nbsp;create tactile, 3D effects.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Creating depth by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.resourcelabel.com\/resources\/spot-tactile-varnish-printing\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">mixing and matching spot varnishes.<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Switching to metalized materials for differentiation between brands in a product family.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Building trust by allowing consumers to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.resourcelabel.com\/resources\/nfc-applications-for-wine-and-spirits-brands\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">authenticate high-end products in real time by&nbsp;scanning NFC tags<\/a>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Moving toward <a href=\"https:\/\/www.resourcelabel.com\/products\/eco-friendly-sustainable-product-labels\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">sustainable label materials<\/a> to support the recycling of PET containers.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Employing a variety of&nbsp;luxury finishes&nbsp;to command top-shelf prices.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">These concepts vary in price.

We\u2019ll explore five ways to tighten your budget without making any changes to your brand\u2019s overall concept.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Five ways to cut label costs without negatively impacting branding<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Custom labels require a complex manufacturing process. Your printer sources raw materials and performs a series of processes (printing, die cutting, embellishing) that transforms them into the rolls of finished labels that arrive at your facility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Because processes are tailored for each brand\u2019s individual vision, pricing varies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At Resource Label Group, we partner with companies to strike a balance between&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.resourcelabel.com\/value-of-looping-your-label-printer-into-the-big-picture\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">what your procurement team needs in terms of cost efficiencies<\/a> and what your brand owner needs in terms of product differentiation.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.resourcelabel.com\/contact\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Ready for one-on-one pricing information? Contact us today.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Below, we\u2019ll narrow in on five factors that impact pricing and how you can use each to shave a few percentage points off overall costs:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"#order\"><strong>Order size<\/strong> \u2014 Larger orders mean lower per-label costs<\/a>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"#consider\"><strong>Print technology <\/strong>\u2014 Flexo, digital or digital impact? It depends<\/a>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"#finishes\"><strong>Finishes and embellishments<\/strong> \u2014 Ask about alternative techniques<\/a>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"#experiment\"><strong>Label dimensions<\/strong> \u2014 Downsizing can result in huge savings<\/a>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"#lean\"><strong>Lean on your label partner <\/strong>\u2014 Early and frequent consultation is always key<\/a>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"order\"><strong>Order more labels less often<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The larger your order, the lower your per-label cost will be. This is because the press setup time and make-ready waste get spread out over more labels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Cost-saving idea<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ask your label provider how changing your order schedule can improve overall label costs. For example, instead of ordering labels every month, you might be able to use quarterly orders to pay significantly less per label.<br>To learn how your label partner can help you balance risk and cost when choreographing orders, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.resourcelabel.com\/resources\/packaging-inventory-management-programs\/\">read this article about packaging inventory management.&nbsp;<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-pullquote padding-top-xs padding-bottom-xs\"><blockquote><p><strong>But wait \u2014 large orders aren\u2019t ALWAYS the answer to cutting costs<\/strong><br>Over ordering <em>just <\/em>to bring down unit costs isn\u2019t right for every brand. This can inflate the cost of carrying inventory. But a collaborative label partner can review your overall plan through a clear lens and assess whether or not this is the right money-saving move for your company.<\/p><\/blockquote><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"consider\"><strong>Consider other print technologies<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Generally speaking, these three technologies are most commonly used for printing labels: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.resourcelabel.com\/products\/custom-digital-label-printing\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">digital<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.resourcelabel.com\/products\/custom-flexographic-label-printing\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">flexographic<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.resourcelabel.com\/products\/digital-flexo-hybrid-label-printing\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">digital impact (hybrid)<\/a> printing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Plate-free digital offers the best per-label value at low volumes because it eliminates upfront tooling costs. At higher volumes, flexo\u2019s unparalleled throughput speed neutralizes the cost of plates. And digital impact, a hybrid technology, is used in some cases to reap the benefits of both flexo and digital.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">None of these technologies are inherently \u201cbetter.\u201d In fact, many brands benefit from employing a mixture of technologies across their product portfolio. To learn why, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.resourcelabel.com\/resources\/flexo-vs-digital-printing-for-labels\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">this article explores scenarios in which each technology provides the best pricing.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Cost-saving idea<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Flexo invariably provides the best value for long runs with little variability. But for products with many flavors, scents or seasonal variations, ask about digital printing or digital impact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.resourcelabel.com\/resources\/variable-data-printing-labels\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">variable data capabilities<\/a> of these technologies let you combine multiple SKUs into one order, reducing your overall per-label costs. It\u2019s important to note that you can only combine labels that are the same size and use the same material.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.resourcelabel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/RLG-label-prices-image-2.jpg\" alt=\"custom product label costs\" class=\"wp-image-7039\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"finishes\"><strong>Re-examine your finishes and embellishments<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While many brands keep it simple with&nbsp;compelling graphics printed on a paper, film or foil substrates, others elevate their labels with premium finishes like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.resourcelabel.com\/resources\/spot-tactile-varnish-printing\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">spot varnishes<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.resourcelabel.com\/products\/custom-embossed-product-labels\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">pattern embossing<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.resourcelabel.com\/products\/custom-foil-stamped-labels\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">foil stamping<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Cost-saving idea<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Some embellishments are more cost-effective than others. When weighing your options, ask about alternatives that can achieve similar effects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For example, you could incorporate several spot varnishes, each incurring its own custom tooling cost. But if you like one of our in-house pattern varnish dies, then you\u2019ll get a textured look without investing in custom dies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.resourcelabel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/RLG-label-prices-image-3.jpg\" alt=\"custom product label costs\" class=\"wp-image-7038\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"experiment\"><strong>Experiment with label size<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It\u2019s easy to see how your label size impacts cost: larger labels use more material. But what you may not know is that label presses have a set web width \u2014 and you can cut costs by optimizing the size of your label to maximize the number of labels that can be printed at once.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Cost-saving idea<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ask your label printer to optimize the size of your label to the press width. Using a smaller label size also means that every roll contains more labels, which saves you money on production and freight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"lean\"><strong>The power of early and frequent collaboration<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The benefit of long-term planning with your label partner extends beyond budgeted line items. A good label partner can help you make a long-term plan to steel your brand against unexpected market forces. Every company is different, which means creative cost solutions will vary. But no matter the challenges your brand faces, collaborative and frequent planning makes the overall label experience easier.<em>&nbsp;<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Cost-saving idea<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Find a label partner who works to understand your overall long-term goals <em>and <\/em>your immediate label needs.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This will vary from brand to brand, but their solutions may include improving your overall business processes by consolidating with a single vendor. This can mean fewer POs and invoices, reducing unnecessary and costly administrative paperwork. If your brand\u2019s long-term goals involve <a href=\"https:\/\/www.resourcelabel.com\/resources\/recycled-recyclable-labels-complete-guide\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">stronger sustainability measures<\/a>, your label partner can set the necessary benchmarks for you to achieve them within your budget.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Generally speaking, there are three technologies that are most commonly used for printing labels: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.resourcelabel.com\/custom-digital-label-printing\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">digital<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.resourcelabel.com\/flexographic-labels\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">flexographic<\/a> or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.resourcelabel.com\/digital-flexo-hybrid-label-printing\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">digital impact<\/a> (hybrid) printing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Plate-free digital offers the best per-label value at low volumes because it eliminates upfront tooling costs.

Lean on your label partner<\/strong><br>There\u2019s value in long-term planning with a true label partner. With early collaboration, you won\u2019t just get notified when items are delayed. A label partner works with you to contextualize the issue, and provides creative solutions and long-term forecasting. For example, during the Finnish paper strikes in early 2022, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.resourcelabel.com\/resources\/paper-liner-shortage\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">we helped transition many brands to PET liners to avoid looming supply chain shortages<\/a>.<br>When it comes to long-term planning, the best label printer is rarely the one that gives you the lowest number. Instead, opt for the one that offers a true partnership and the best value.<\/p><\/blockquote><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What to ask your if you want to reduce label costs<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Seek out a label partner who gives you the most for your money, not just a printer that promises cheap costs. This helps your brand avoid a reactive mindset during market uncertainty, whether that\u2019s supply chain problems or inflation. A label partner increases your brand\u2019s resiliency by looking out for your long-term interests.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>When you\u2019ve been tasked with cutting label spend, ask potential suppliers these three key questions:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Is changing order quantity <\/strong><strong><em>really <\/em><\/strong><strong>the best option for my brand?<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is probably the most common tactic, but your label partner can review your overall goals and help you determine whether this is truly the best approach for your brand. Often, there are other, more effective tools at your disposal. So be skeptical if a change in order quantity or cadence is the only solution brought to the table.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"2\" class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>How can improving my order processes save money?<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Besides the label itself, there might be savings opportunities in your overall business process. This could mean consolidating orders through a single provider to reduce paperwork lift. It could also involve <a href=\"https:\/\/www.resourcelabel.com\/resources\/packaging-inventory-management-programs\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">inventory management agreements to match label deliveries to your forecasted needs<\/a>. A good label partner can find the right solution for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"3\" class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>What technologies do you offer that help my brand\u2019s bottom line?<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At Resource Label Group, customers use a software suite called <a href=\"https:\/\/www.resourcelabel.com\/services\/easesentials\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">EASESENTIALS<\/a><sup>TM<\/sup> that makes it easy to order, proof, review and track labels.
