Small Business Saturday is an important event for small businesses each year! During one of the busiest shopping periods of the year, barcode labeling for your small business shouldn’t be stressful or take up too much of your time. This blog will cover barcode labeling tips for small businesses no matter where you’re at with your labeling process – handwriting labels, purchasing pre-printed labels from a vendor, or using software to design and print labels.

 

If you’re not already leveraging TEKLYNX barcode label printing software for your small business, get a quick product recommendation with our interactive tool.

Choose barcode label printing software that grows with your business 

 

If you’re outsourcing your labels, consider lead time and label waste in your process. When you’re outsourcing, the steps from submitting brand information to finally receiving your labels (at large quantities) can take days or weeks, potentially creating a bottleneck for your product sales. Also, any changes in your product or business that require changes to your labels, such as an expansion of products sold or changing regulations, may result in wasted money and label stock, as well as the additional cost to design, update, or print new labels.

 

Bringing label printing in house can cut costs and set your small business up for success in the long run. When you launch a new product, having in-house label printing allows you to have the new product available to the customer faster without having to contact your label vendor and wait on ship time.

 

 

Whether you need to create simple labels with text, images, and barcodes, or more complex labels due to scalability or label regulations, it’s important to find a software provider with solutions that work best for your small business now and into the future:   

 

 

Determining the right barcode labeling software or time to invest can be difficult. TEKLYNX labeling experts are here to help you make an informed decision that perfectly aligns with your business goals.

Tips for when you’re busy…work smarter, not harder
