Frequently asked questions
Print management is a comprehensive service that handles the entire lifecycle of your printed marketing materials. It goes far beyond simply printing. At Smart Source, it involves strategic sourcing of materials and vendors, procurement, production oversight, quality control, warehousing, inventory management, kitting, distribution, and logistics. We act as a strategic partner to streamline your entire marketing supply chain, ensuring efficiency and brand consistency from start to finish.
A traditional printer’s primary function is production. Smart Source’s function is strategic management. While a printer fulfills a single order, we manage your company’s entire print and marketing collateral program.
- Single Point of Contact: We provide one dedicated team to manage all your projects, rather than you juggling multiple vendors.
- Vetted Supplier Network: We leverage our extensive, pre-qualified network of suppliers to find the perfect fit for any job’s quality, budget, and timeline requirements.
- Strategic Oversight: We focus on optimizing your processes to reduce costs, eliminate waste, and increase the efficiency of your marketing operations.
- Technology: We provide a centralized platform for ordering, tracking, and reporting, giving you full visibility and control.
We specialize in supporting enterprise-level clients with complex marketing and operational needs. Our ideal partners are often large, multi-site organizations in sectors like retail, healthcare, hospitality, finance, and manufacturing. If your company struggles with maintaining brand consistency across locations, managing a complex web of print vendors, or controlling spend on marketing collateral, you will see significant value from our services.
Our end-to-end solutions cover a wide range of needs, including:
- Strategic Sourcing & Procurement
- Commercial Print
- Branded Merchandise
- Signage & Displays

Brand consistency is at the core of what we do. We achieve this through:

- Expert Vendor Matching: We select suppliers from our vetted network whose equipment and expertise are perfectly suited to your brand’s quality standards for each specific job.
Not at all. Our goal is to give you *more* strategic control by removing the administrative burden. Our centralized technology platform provides 24/7 visibility into your projects, inventory levels, and spending. You maintain full approval over creative, budget, and strategy, while we handle the complex execution and day-to-day management.
Our onboarding process is collaborative and structured to ensure a seamless transition. It typically involves four stages:
- Discovery: We work with your team to deeply understand your current processes, pain points, and objectives.
- Strategy: We develop a customized program tailored to your specific needs, outlining opportunities for cost savings and efficiency gains.
