The year 2022, will be remembered for many worldwide events and it was also a challenging year in our industry for the delivery of the key commodities required to publish our newspapers. PAGE members and prospective members adjusted, adapted and in many cases worked directly with PAGE to assist in receiving these crucial supplies.
As we enter the final quarter of the 2022, I wanted to thank our membership and remind them about the key benefits of checking their current prices with PAGE in preparation for their 2023 budgets.
You don’t have to be a PAGE member to check your prices and you can quickly confirm with the PAGE team how much you can save by contacting us directly and then consider purchasing through the Cooperative. www.pagecooperative.com
Low prices
Naturally, low prices and associated savings are some of the primary benefits of working with PAGE. We achieve these savings by negotiating the prices from PAGE preferred partners and then encouraging the members to purchase these products through PAGE.
End of Year Dividends
An equally important benefit is the end-of-fiscal-year dividend that is distributed. Ordering regularly through PAGE leads to an accumulation of order activity which results in a dividend check paid out to PAGE Members at the end of the year. The larger the volume of orders (which results in savings) then the larger the dividend and equity portion. These dividends will continue to accumulate provided the members purchase through preferred PAGE partners and those purchases flow through PAGE.
For those not familiar, PAGE acts as a not-for-profit Cooperative founded in 1984 and owned by its publishing and commercial printing members. As a Cooperative that was formed almost 40 years ago, PAGE has now served generations of newspaper leadership. PAGE bands members together with a common objective of controlling costs but with additional benefits of best practices, advisory and intervention during shortages.
So now that budget season is upon us, we invite you to reach out to PAGE, where it has never been easier to check your prices and see how much you can save.
