FAQ “Booklet Labels are not part of our core business. Why should we sell them?” Commercial printers are offering labels and packaging to broaden their product offering. Booklet Labels are a natural extension. A core part of a booklet label is offset printed booklet or pamphlet. Commercial printers can provide the printed onserts or buy from us turnkey.
FAQ “We don’t know anything about booklet labels. What kind of support are we going to get?” JH Bertrand’s project management staff is highly skilled in helping commercial printers prepare their projects for conversion into booklet labels. Beyond that, you are always welcome to speak with Jeff Bertrand (CEO) or Sam Donofrio about strategy and product information.
FAQ “Can we print the booklets and send them to JH Bertrand for conversion into booklet labels?” Yes. Absolutely. This is why commercial printers are natural partners to us. We routinely get flat and folded sheets from all over the country that we convert into booklet label products. We thoroughly enjoy these types of collaborations.

FAQ “What about freight?” Freight is often a small expense relative to the entire cost of the project so it is not a big issue.
