Hey guys and gals,

Glad you are tackling this problem. I run a company that rebrands and does some ODM designs in China. Getting packaging quotes in the US has been a frustrating and confusing process.

Here's a few reasons I still get all my packaging done in china:

1. Instruction Manuals. Ever tried to have them printed to go with your box designs? Box designers are typically not "full service" in that respect. Here are two examples of instruction manuals that I need:

a) High gloss, multi-page booklet. https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0123/9252/files/Ambassador... b) Single folded piece of paper: http://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0123/9252/files/instruction...

2. Foam inserts. Offer me paper inserts to hold my product or cut EVA foam.

As a small business owner you need full service to make your offer attractive. Foam cutting may be more difficult but please let customers print small instruction manuals on paper or folded booklets at reasonable prices.
