Samples That Close Deals

No photograph, no rendering, and no verbal description sells paper stock and print finishing as effectively as putting a sample in your client's hands. When a client feels the difference between 100lb gloss text and 14pt matte cover, they make faster decisions. When they see spot UV in person for the first time, they upgrade.

Our trade sample kit is designed for broker presentations. Every swatch is printed in full color on the same equipment and stocks we use for production orders. The quality your client sees in the sample is exactly the quality they will receive in the finished product.

Keep the kit in your client meeting bag. Pull it out every time paper stock or finishing comes up in conversation. It is the fastest way to move from discussion to decision.

What the Kit Includes

The trade sample kit includes printed swatches on every stock and finish available through our wholesale program:

80lb gloss text — the economy stock for high-volume distribution. Show this when your client needs quantity over premium feel. 100lb gloss text — the standard professional stock. The default recommendation for most marketing materials. 100lb matte text — non-reflective, elegant, easy to read. Present this for professional services, text-heavy materials, and refined brands. 14pt gloss cover — thick card stock with a bright surface. The standard for business cards and postcards. 14pt matte cover — thick card stock with a sophisticated flat finish. The premium alternative. UV gloss and matte coating — protective finishes that enhance durability and visual quality. Spot UV — selective high-gloss coating on a matte surface. The premium upsell sample that consistently impresses clients.

Each swatch is labeled with the stock name and weight for easy reference during client meetings.

Unbranded for Your Presentations

Trade sample kits contain no Print Brokers Inc branding. The swatches are generic printed samples that you can present to your clients without revealing your production partner. Fully consistent with our white-label approach — your client sees your expertise and your product recommendations, not our brand.

If you need branded sample kits with your own company identity, contact your account representative. Custom-branded sample kits are available for brokers who present to clients frequently and want a fully branded experience.

Free Shipping. No Purchase Required.

Your trade sample kit ships free within the continental US. No credit card. No minimum order commitment. No follow-up sales calls.

Sample kits ship within 2 to 3 business days. Order one for your office and one for the road — having samples available at every client meeting increases your close rate and your average order value.

Request additional kits anytime. If a client keeps your sample kit after a meeting (and they often do — the spot UV swatches are hard to part with), we will send a replacement.
