LAKE FOREST, Calif.-PSB Integrated Marketing has reduced prices and announced promotions on key items as a result of the economic challenges. The new program brings pricing back to 1993 levels when PSB, then known as Printing Service Bureau, began offering ultra-low pricing on statement inserts and postcards.
The new pricing represents discounts of as much as 50% or more on some products and quantities. Price reductions have been possible through extensive corporate cost cutting and right-sizing within the PSB operation.
