Notecards are also great to have on hand for other uses in your business like including in packages with a purchase. Include a special discount or mention an upcoming sale or event.

Saddle stitch binding is the most inexpensive and simple to make, yet professional form of binding, which allows us to save you money. They also offer the fastest turn-around time. Saddle stitched is the most popular and ideal choice for self-cover booklets and calendars with smaller page counts between 8 and 92 pages. 
Perfect bound binding is the most popular type of soft cover binding. Perfect bound books are inexpensive to make and provide a durable, high quality attractive look that can’t be matched. Perfect binding is the ideal choice for publications with higher page counts (28 pages up to 2 inches thick), giving them a professional looking printable square spine. A paperback book or a phone book is a familiar example. 
Hard Cover books are case bound with your choice of covers. Our basic cover is printed in full-color, laminated and glued to a heavy, warp-resistant book board.
Spiral binding uses a durable plastic coil which makes it an ideal option for every-day use as reference material. Spiral Bound Book Printing offers different coil sizes and diameters to accommodate a higher page count up to 2 3/4" thick. There is a fast turn-around time for very short spiral bound book production quantities. Manuals, Handbooks, and Guides are good examples of products well-suited for spiral binding. Available only in black coil. 
Wire-O binding is similar to Spiral binding. Wire-O binding uses a professional-looking looped metal wire which makes it an ideal option when the product is for a more formal setting, such as a presentation. Wire-O binding can accommodate a higher page count up to 1 ¼" thick. They may cost a little more. Available only in black standard wire.
