Return Address Labels

Decide what information to put on the return address label Depending on the size of the label and the budget, businesses can include their company logo, photo or slogan on the label giving it a custom and professional look. Telephone, fax and website are optional, but many consumers find it handy to have this information handy. Choose a small label to fit on envelopes, or packages or a large label with the top half listing your company information and the bottom half blank for addressing. Some styles offer a vertical design with pre-printed information running the length of the far left side and the right side open.

I recommend:  Companies like Elite Designs Labels and Printing and PaperDirect have the option to upload the company’s artwork online and offer several design options in their custom templates.

Pick out features for customized return address labels Know your business' mailing needs and choose label aspects accordingly. For items handled frequently, smudge-proof ink or paper is a worthy investment. If your business lends itself to bright colors, labels in these eye-catching colors fit in nicely.

I recommend:  North Coast Tape and Label has a nice process outlined online, so the company can gather the necessary information and call to speak directly with a representative to order the labels. In-Touch Direct gives the buyer a choice between black and white, two color and four color formats.

Decide how many return address labels to order If you're working on a limited budget, look for price breaks with less color, or use return address label templates offered by the company and insert your own artwork to personalize the return address labels. For a quick customization, order photo return address labels with a company photo. Smaller labels are often cheaper as well. Don't count out buying in bulk if the company information is not likely to change. Investing a little more can get a lot more labels and bump you up to the next level offered.

I recommend:  Advanced Labels treats every customer regardless of the size of the order the same and offers laser labels that go into printers to print return address labels with the “To” information on larger labels. Address Labels 4U offers a large line of low cost custom printed return address labels.
