Disc Makers Introduces Recession Fighter CD Packages at Lowest Prices in the Industry 1,000 CDs in jewel cases start at just $890 – for a complete retail ready package
PENNSAUKEN, NJ
– August1st, 2008 – Disc Makers, the leader in optical disc manufacturing for independent artists, filmmakers, and businesses, today announces new Recession Fighter Packages for select retail-ready CD replication packages. The company created these special, deeply discounted packages for working musicians struggling to make ends meet during the current economic slowdown. Available packages include CDs in jewel cases with 2, 4, and 6-panel folders, as well as CDs in board jackets.
For example, a 1000 piece Recession Fighter CD package with a two-panel insert, regularly priced at $1,190 is now available for just $890. Disc Makers’ Recession Fighter packages are completely retail ready, and include all glass mastering, replication, on-disc printing, insert printing, and packaging required. The company explains that the primary difference between Recession Fighter packages and its regular packages is the delivery time.
Disc Makers President Tony van Veen commented that “many of our customers are working musicians, and they’ve been hard hit during these unsettled economic times. We realized that if we could have some scheduling flexibility, allowing us to manufacture Recession Fighter packages during those times of the week when we have some excess capacity in the plant, we could run them more cheaply and pass the savings on to the artist.” For this reason Recession Fighter packages take longer than Disc Makers’ Standard Turn Time packages. “We need 15 to 20 business days to complete a Recession Fighter package, versus just 10 days for a Standard package. If the artist can plan ahead enough, they can save $300..or even more,” added van Veen.
For artists on a tight schedule Disc Makers continues to offer its Standard as well as its Priority turn time packages. Sample prices for 1,000 CDs (the most popular quantity) compare as follows:
