What Gives You An Outstanding Value?
I recently purchased a new car battery. I thought I was getting a good deal until I got home and looked at my receipt. The store clerk had deducted $10 for my turning in my old battery, then he added it back on again. What had felt like a good deal suddenly became a rip-off that made me angry. Maybe it was on honest mistake and he hit the wrong key, but it still did not feel good.
A purchase that seemed like a wise decision, and turn out bad. And what initially may seem like a bad purchase, might later appear to be a wise decision. What can you do to make labeling machine purchases that are the right decisions today, and tomorrow?
It comes down to several key points: quality, value and customer service.
At times low cost, low quality may seem to be the right decision. I do a lot of wood cutting and I've purchases several inexpensive chain saws. The result was that I was purchasing a new chain saw every two years. The first one was great, it lasted five years. Based on that I kept buying another cheap chain saw each time one broke. What a poor decision. I could have spent half the money and had a better machine, that lasted.
It's the same with label printers. The major cost in labeling a facility is the cost of installing the labels. If your labels don't last, you'll be spending money to redo work sooner than it should need to be redone... in other words you'll be buying another chain saw. That's why quality is important.
Value is also important. Why pay more than you need to pay? But value is more than just the dollar cost of an item. You need to know what you are getting for your dollar, what comes with a printer? How easy is the printer to set up and use? How quickly supplies can be changed? A printer that costs more, in many cases delivers a greater value.
It is also important to remember that no matter how good the product is, something can go wrong. That's why customer service is important. Can you call and get answers right away? What happens if your machine needs repair?
