A: The real cost impact on a client's budget is the efficiency with which projects are managed through the agency, to the outside suppliers, and to the client's final use. Scheduling, adjusting to changes as a project is produced and managing outside suppliers all impact the client's budget. At Hershey Philbin Associates this production function is managed from the initial cost estimate, which the client approves, through production, to the final billing, to insure cost efficiency at every step. We are staffed to efficiently and effectively handle the production of any marketing communication contingency, from a national multi-media advertising campaign, to the construction of a trade booth, or a web site. Q: WHAT KINDS OF PRODUCTION MANAGEMENT SERVICES DO YOU PROVIDE? A: We make sure the right printer is selected for any printing project, for example. We make sure the project is priced competitively. We have an agency representative "on press" overseeing the press run, to assure color corrections are accurate and match client approved color proofs. We review suppliers' invoices to make certain they comply with client approved estimates. We negotiate things like photography costs, copyrights and quantity print discounts. We rarely miss a project due date, or exceed a budget estimate. That's because we pride ourselves on efficient production management. Hershey Philbin Associates enjoys a reputation as the best managed marketing communications production agency around. Just ask any one of our clients. |
