How Non-Profits Get More Printing Done for Less

It’s a not-so-fun-fact that technology consumes a significant share of a non-profit’s budget[i]. All non-profits look for opportunities to decrease their IT budget, so that more funds can benefit their mission directly. However, many simply do not have the staff, resources or experience to make strategic investments in technology that will decrease costs over time.

The Gordon Flesch Company (GFC) recently conducted a survey of over 5,000 customers through a third-party research company. Here’s what non-profits said about the value of GFC’s Managed Print Services (MPS) for their tech budgeting.

A Partner That Listens

The Palatine Township Senior Citizens Council (PTSCC) is a non-profit which supports older adults and their families by encouraging independence, well-being and connection to the community. The organization needed to control technology costs, recycle waste and deploy more efficient printing technology.

The small, but growing non-profit hoped GFC’s imageCARE+ MPS with automatic meter reads, Just-In-Time (JIT) Toner delivery and recycling options would fit their needs. “When I had to take bids for a new copier, I dealt with one other firm. I was not impressed by their pushiness and their inability to listen as to what our needs were,” says Nancy Klintworth, Administrative Director, PTSCC. “The Gordon Flesch Company representatives gave me their full attention, listened and were able to provide us with what we needed.”

 

Products That Fit Your Needs

Non-profit organizations must communicate their needs effectively, but at the lowest cost possible. With limited budgets, the polished, eye-catching marketing materials of large corporations may seem out of reach. However, with today’s advanced printing technology, non-profits can bring print marketing in-house at a fraction of the cost without skimping on quality.

Saint Paul’s Lutheran Church in Westerville, OH needed to control costs and deploy more efficient printing technology. Jonathan Bull, Senior Pastor at St. Paul Lutheran Church says that the decreased downtime and added security GFC offers is incredibly valuable and is extremely satisfied with the full line of products provided. Thanks to GFC’s relationship with Canon (The largest independent Canon dealer in the U.S. for seven consecutive years), the church was able to get new machines that offered more security with less downtime.

Managed Print for the Win

95% of non-profits and other organizations surveyed are likely to recommend GFC, and the company achieved a Net Promoter Score of +63 with an average rating of 8.9 out of 10 in the 2021 TechValidate survey of their customers.

 

The value of our Managed Print program is that we charge users for services they use and minimize waste. And as another non-profit Operations Managers says, “GFC has been easy to work with and your team even worked to save us money during the pandemic when we were not making as many copies.”

 

Best of all, the service of an MPS program means you have less burden of IT administration, and service is available when your non-profit needs it. “When there are issues, GFC is very responsive in helping find a solution,” says another on-profit IT manager. “Whether that’s over the phone or having someone come to address the issue in person, we can count on the service.”
