All labels are not created equal!

So too all Compulabel distributors are not created equal . If you believe it might be to your advantage to buy Compulable from your local Compulabel distributor you might want to reconsider. This is a actual story.

The other day one of our customer service persons fielded a call from a prospect who asked her how TLCIT.com, here in Pennsylvania, could market Compulabel Address labels at a lower cost than his local distributor in the south. She gave this simple answer. When you buy from us here at tlcIT.com you buy directly from one of five Compulabel plants located within the USA. (Yes Compulabel Labels are still made in the US)

Here’s how your order flow resembles when you shop through us : An order is placed online. Your payment is processed immediately through the encrypted shopping cart. The order is electronically routed to one of the Compulabel Labels United States warehouses, where it is processed for shipment. UPS delivers your order within 3-5 days. Don’t be surprised if it’s sooner. In other words, our Ecommerce site is set up to minimize the number of people who process your order. Simple concept. Minimize the labor involved in processing an order and the result is lower cost to you!

Alternatively, your nearest Compulabel distributor, who does not use E-Commerce, keeps Compulabel Shipping Labels stocked at their “local” stockroom, ever ready to deliver to you along with other items you might need like peanuts bags boxes tape cartons stretch wrap or other shipping supplies. Here’s what their order flow might look like when you order from a “local” compulabel distributor who stocks the product at their “local” warehouse. The Compulabel Distributor buy a whole skid of material from one of 5 Warehouses. The solid skid is delivered to the “local” distributor by a trucking company. That skid is offloaded by the local distributor’s warehouse worker and put away on the shelf awaiting your order. You finally make your order by mail to a sales rep. The sales rep processes your order into their computer. A warehouse worker prints the order on a label and finds the Compulabel item number you wanted and then loads it onto UPS truck. The local truck driver drops off your order. The accounts payable of the Compulabel Distributor then prepares an invoice and mails it to you. Some time later you pay the distributor by check. The accounting department then runs to the bank to deposit your check and the process is finished.

Who might you suppose has to pay for: the poor soul who picks and loads the cartons of labels onto the local delivery truck, the warehouse cost of your product in the Compulabel distributor’s store before you make your purchase, the warehouseman’s labor to handle and then put away all of the compulabel items in the warehouse, the gal that creates your bill of lading?, the guy who drives the delivery truck?, everything else? Obviously, the response to each of these questions is the buyer does!

You, the compulabel customer ultimately pay for this redundant effort, if you order from your hometown Compulable reseller. If you consider all of this you can certainly see why buying direct from our eCommerce website tlcIT.com is the most efficient way to buy Compulabel Thermal Transfer Labels. In summary, buy directly from Compulabel at www.TLCIT.com and you will definitely save!
