Question

How far in advance should I order grand opening materials?

Answer

Order your grand opening print materials about 3 to 4 weeks before the event. That gives you time for production, shipping, and getting promotional pieces into the neighborhood before opening day.

A simple timing guide:

MaterialWhen to have it ready
Flyers and postcardsDistribute at least two weeks early
Banners and signsCan arrive closer to the event date

Getting flyers and postcards out early gives the neighborhood time to plan a visit, while banners and signage only need to be up by opening day. If you are in a rush, ask about expedited turnaround on the products you need.
