Print on Demand (POD) is exactly what it sounds like. Printing documents ONLY when you ACTUALLY need them. There are several reasons why digital Print-on-Demand is your organization’s best choice for short run print jobs. POD will save you money on shipping and storage.

Besides immediate turnaround, POD enables you to introduce elements of customization and specialization into your printed products so you can create materials tailored to the specific interests of each of your donors with an eye to improved donor communications that are interesting and engaging to each individual. By taking advantage of these customization options and integrating POD with other aspects of your donor communications, you can maximize the marketing value of your printed products.
