With 20+ years of experience in printing, I understand your problem and it will be solved just by reading this blog post. At the end of this post, you will have laser-sharp clarity for choosing the most reliable paper for your new year calendars.

Defining Your Purpose for Calendar

calendar paper type

Before going to depth, we first need to define few things. There are plenty of things to think on before selecting paper for printing business calendars. Ask yourself few questions as below: Whom you want to give calendar? How you will deliver value by gifting to them? What quality do you want to give? Simply defining this, your half work is done. This questioning will give you brief about what your customer wants in your calendar. If you still confused with it don’t worry we are going to resolve and clarify that point.

Selecting Right Customer Base

Depending upon the nature of your business, you must need to know the right target audience. You might have customer base of lower-class, middle-class or upper-class people.

You should not select premium quality of paper for lower or middle-class target people. The quality of calendar can’t relate or reconcile with their lifestyle.

Similarly, you can’t suggest normal quality calendar i.e., single page calendar to your premium customers. 

Identifying Your Budget

Quality of paper directly affects business calendar printing costs. That is why it is important to identify the budget. Price of business calendar varies from 10/- to 50/- and even more.

Cost of paper changes according to GSM, paper grade, and other effects like matt, gloss, semi-gloss etc.
