Our services include:

Inkjet personalization - Our high-resolution inkjet printers are capable of speeds from 5,000 to 25,000 pieces per hour. We can print variable data and graphics, including "spot color", directly on almost any paper stock. Not only is this less expensive than pressure-sensitive labels of the old days, but it looks much nicer and allows your mail to be highly personalized.

Laser personalization - Our high-capacity laser-imaging department can incorporate any powerful database into a highly personalized document. From black to full color text and graphics, your mailers can be personalized, simplex or duplex, with variable messaging and graphics. Imagine an offer that changes from piece to piece, depending on the purchase habits and psychographics of your customer!

Photocopying - From black to full color, our high-resolution copiers can accommodate simplex or duplex forms up to 12" x 18". Provide your own paper or choose from our large selection of weights and colors. Our aggressive pricing can save you money, especially runs of 5,000 pieces and less. Best of all, you can send the files electronically to save time and avoid the hassle of running around town.

Machine insertion - Our inserting machines can insert up to 6 pages in an envelope with astonishing speed and accuracy. After the contents are inserted, the mail piece travels down the track where it is sealed and metered on the same pass. This simplified process will save you time and money on your next enveloped mailing.

Folding/bursting - Our high-speed folding machines, can fold your material into a variety of configurations, including right-angle folds, letter folds, and z-folds. With our newest MBO folding machine, mail pieces can be trimmed, scored, and perforated on the same pass with the highest accuracy. If your product is not machineable, AD-Vantage will hand fold it to your specifications. Continuous forms can be burst into separate sheets before processing.

Tabbing - The post office requires all folded (letter size) self-mailers to be tabbed to qualify for automation discounts. By applying just a single tab closure*, AD-Vantage can save you up to 5 to 7 cents per mail piece in postage. This is usually done in conjunction with inkjet addressing to save you money. You can choose from a variety of colored tabs, such as frosted clear (most common), white, gold, and silver.

*To save money, it is very important to design your mail piece with the fold on the bottom and open edge on the top. If your mailer is laid out this way, only one tab is required. However, if the open edge is at the bottom, the post office requires two tabs to be automation compatible. Please see examples below or refer to FAQ layout tips.

Stamping/metering - If you choose not to use a permit imprint (indicia), we can apply postage with a meter imprint or a live stamp. When sealing an envelope, postage can be added in the same pass for no or very little cost.

Assembly - Any project, which cannot be processed by machine, can be completed manually by our staff.

Fulfillment - Past fulfillment projects have included CDs, water bottles, cellular phone components, laser pens, and many other items. Call us to discuss your project and we can offer creative ideas or suggestions.

Drop shipping/postage savings - Depending on your list geography, it may make sense to transfer your mail to the processing or destination delivery office. This often enables us to reduce your postage up to $.032 per piece (and expedite delivery). Whenever savings can be achieved (or time can be saved), AD-Vantage will handle the logistics and pass the savings on to you!
