Is there equality in labels?

So too all Compulabel distributors are not the same either. If you think it might be to your benefit to purchase Compulable from the local Compulabel distributor you might want to think again. This is a actual story.

A few days ago one of our customer service persons fielded a call from a customer who asked her how our company, located in Pennsylvania, could distribute Compulabel brand labels for a lower price than his regional distributor in the south. The answer Julie gave him was amazingly simple. When you buy from us at tlcIT.com you buy directly from any one of five Compulable plants throughout the US. (Yes Compulabel Labels are still made in the US)

Here’s what your order process looks like when you shop through us : An order is placed directly online. The payment is processed immediately in the encrypted shopping cart. The order is digitally routed to one of the Compulabel Label USA facilities, where it is pick-packed for delivery. 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!

In contrast, your nearest Compulabel distributor, who doesn’t 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 boxes tape bags cartons stretch wrap peanuts or other packaging supplies. Here’s what the order process resembles when you order from a “local” compulabel distributor who stocks the product at their “local” warehouse. The Compulabel Distributor buy a whole skid of labels from one of 5 Warehouses. The skid is delivered to the “local” distributor by common carrier. That skid is offloaded by the local distributor’s warehouseman and stored away on the shelf awaiting your order. You finally make your order by fax to an order taker. The order taker enters your order into their system. Someone in the warehouse prints your order on a lable and finds the Compulabel part number you wanted and loads it onto the local delivery truck. The local truck driver stops at your door and drops off your order. The billing department of the Compulabel Distributor then prepares an invoice and faxes it to you. 30 days later you pay your distributor with a check. Someone from their office then runs to the bank to deposit your check and the transaction is finally complete.

Who do you think pays for: the gal that creates your bill of lading?, the team of people who do the accounting of your payment?the person that creates your invoice, the additional shipping charges to ship your labels into the Compulabel distributor’s DC? everything else? Of course, the response to each of the questions is you do!

You, the compulabel customer ultimately pay for all of this , if you buy through your regional Compulabel distributor. If you look at it this way you can definitely see why buying direct from our eCommerce store at tlcIT.com is the most efficient method to buy Compulabel Direct Thermal Labels! Bottom line- buy directly from Compulabel at www.TLCIT.com and you’ll definitely save money!
