Be sure that the company that you choose, or your top few choices, can demonstrate great communication. That's especially important if they are not a local company. If all transactions will be handled by phone or computer, be sure to call or e-mail to see that communication is open and fast. That will also give you an idea of how knowledgeable the company's staff is about printing.
Any company you choose should be committed to helping you, too. They should be able to start and finish a project within a reasonable time. If they can't, it can be bad for your business. That's especially true if you're printing advertisements for a special sale or some other event that will only be going on for a limited time.
Budget:
Finally, every business is on a budget. So, you should be sure to keep budget in mind, as you narrow down the printing company possibilities. However, you should also remember the old adage that you get what you pay for. It may be worth spending a bit more money to get a much higher quality printing.

Lose Location Expectations:
To begin with, you need to lose location expectations. In other words, thanks to technology, your print company doesn't need to be practically in your own backyard. You can go with a print company that's not even close to where you live, in fact.
Of course, if you have a great local printing company, fine. However, if you want the best deals and the best quality, it helps to explore all of your options. One of those options is to research companies on the Internet.
Background Checks On Companies:
As you're looking up printing companies online, be sure to dig into their backgrounds a bit. If they make any claims on their websites, such as certifications or previous happy customers, be sure to verify those claims. Also, look for unbiased reviews of each company on unrelated websites. Happy or unhappy customers are likely to have posted about their experiences.
