Our photcopying price list

copying.JPGClick on the image to see our pricelist for copying and related services at newsXpress Forest Hill.  I am publishing this here because of questions from other newsagents about what to charge for these services.  We review our prices every year.  Last year, we found we were too low in some areas and too high in others.  Copying is a good margin service offered by newsagents.  It is also a good traffic generator.  Getting the pricing balance right will determine the longer term viability of the business.

With copying the most common sold-alone service in newsagencies – based on recent shopping basket analysis – we need to ensure that we have offers around the copier which speak to those who use the service.

    appreciate the update Mark – it is quite easy to lose track of market rates from time to time. I would be interested in the going rates for Fax sending & receiving.

    Mark,

    Love the art work.
    Any chance you can email to me in a word document for me to adjust please?

    CRAIG,
    I charge $3 for the first page of a fax anywhere in Aust, and then .60 cents per page after that.
    International rate is $6 first page and $3 for any pages after the first.
    To receive faxes we charge $1 per page.

    Cheers
    Chris

    Mark, how about one of your famous surveys on pricing for copying,faxing and ancilliary services eg laminating. It should ask whether the shop is in a centre or a strip.

    Just on International Faxing be cearful on the first prefix number, as 0011 is charged at a 1 second interval, and the 0018 prefix is charged at a 30 MINUTE interval.
