Made in America - Why That Is So Important

In today's tough economy it is more and more important that we support the USA by buying products that are made here so that we can support the jobs here in our own country. It takes a little bit of effort but all you have to do is look a little further on a label or package to see where it is made. Often a product that is made in the USA is competitively priced with products made elsewhere so that is an even better reason to purchase USA made products.

More and more businesses are opting to keep production here in United States rather than contract it out overseas. Although it is often cheaper to produce products in other countries like China, businesses often pay a heavy price in terms of poor quality and high shipping costs. If your customers are not happy and dissatisfied with your products they will not continue buying from you. In many cases, attempting to improve quality control in manufacturing plants located overseas is almost impossible. Eventually you will find that it is not worth the aggravation of using offshore resources to do a lot of the work that can be done right here in the good ol' USA.

Sure it might cost you a little more to produce your product here but in the long run, it is much easier to deal with problems when it is in the next town or state so that it takes a few minutes or few hours to get a solution - rather than having to travel to a country that is half way around the globe. And with labor costs rising in China and shipping costs uncertain, the difference might not be so great when compared to what it would cost to produce your product here.

As I said earlier, we're proud to say that we are a US based company and that we print all of our business cards right here in the USA. We're pleased to be an employer that supports our economy and our workforce by providing jobs here rather than outsourcing work to other countries. We feel proud of the fact that the high quality of our products, produced right here in the United States, ensures reliability to our customers and satisfaction with our products, which is extremely important to us. Not only do we print our business cards here within the US, we also base all of our customer support staff and services here within the United States too. We're dedicated to providing quality, professional service to every single customer - whether they call us or contact us via email - all of those communications are derived from the United States.

We look forward to expanding our products and services into other parts of the world - and we're planning to do just that in the coming years. But, we're dedicated to investing in the economy of what we think is the greatest nation on the earth - the United States of America.
