Torch Music Productions

 

 We’re not just a music company…our products can help your business too…

Whether you’re a motivational speaker in search of an audience, a musician in search of a record label, or a company in search of customers, using CDs or DVDs is an extremely effective means of communicating your message. Marketing and advertising professionals understand the power of audio and video to leave a lasting impression, and frequently insert CDs or DVDs into mass mailings, magazine polybags, and press kits. They know something that those who are just making a name for themselves aren’t aware of: CD and DVD duplication isn’t as expensive as it might seem.

Whether you’re putting together your own press mailing, developing a demo CD to send to movers and shakers, wish to sell a video of your performance, or are a business wanting to showcase your products and services, you can add an extra touch of professionalism by working with a company such as ourselves that specialises in CD and DVD duplication. When it comes to cost, it works like other forms of printing: the higher the quantity, the lower the per-piece price.

For example, if you want to produce a CD in a printed cardboard sleeve, you could get 1,000 made for about a 50p a piece. Up the quantity to 10,000, and the price drops much further. This price typically includes replicated discs with full-colour offset or silkscreen printing, and a printed cardboard sleeve

Bulk quantities of CDs and DVDs are even less expensive. One thousand CDs run only about 35p each, while DVDs are priced as low as £600 per thousand, or 60p per DVD. As for packaging, a printed paper sleeve adds only about 5p per CD or DVD, while a jewel case is about 18p per case.

DVD box packaging is also an option at around 90p per DVD for 1,000 and about 60p per piece for 10,000. This kind of replication and packaging typically includes printing, a full-colour case wrap, assembly, and overwrap.

If you’re planning to do a mailing, you can use a CD replication service that will duplicate your CD, then insert it into a cardboard mailer. Pricing for the replicated discs and mailers runs about £1.00 each for 1,000, or about 50p each for 10,000.

Here are a couple of recent examples of our clients using our services to promote their businesses –

* A local building company got us to produce 500 CDs in PVC wallets that contained images of their ‘building portfolio’… photos and descriptions of extensions, patios, bathrooms & kitchens etc. This became the main part of their promotional pack when pitching for jobs.

* A client in Hull ran a series of business seminars called THE INSIDE FORCE, and issued them in 12 CD ROMs, which were issued to buyers of the course, along with printed materials.

* Specialist racing car designers needed to distribute a visual overview of their manufacturing and assembly process in Mexico to potential business partners and clients in the UK. and Europe. We duplicated their DVD and added their company logo and details so they could send them out.

The bottom line, though, is that whether you’re marketing yourself or your business, you can take advantage of the same techniques that huge marketing firms use – without breaking the bank.
