Article summary

Planning your yearbook involves several important considerations. To begin, schedule a meeting with your Friesens consultant. They will kickstart the process and connect you with your dedicated Friesens Customer Service Agent, who will serve as your primary resource throughout the year.

Meet With Friesens

Get started early and set dates for training, workdays, etc. Your Friesens Print Consultant is there to help you set the plan and work the plan.

Set Your Specs

Confirm the following specifications with your Print Consultant:
• Number of books
• Page count
• Book size
• Orientation
• Special effects
• Cover options
• Endsheet options
• Special add-on’s
• Memory Capsules
• Personalization
• Supplements

Note: You are able to make changes to your specifications at any time before you start submitting your cover and pages to Friesens.

Determine A Price

Make sure you know the ‘per book cost’ of your yearbook and the ‘per book price’ it will be sold for. Given the nature of printing, the more books you order, the lower the ‘cost per book’ so it’s important to sell as many books as you can. Keep in mind that the quote you receive does not include taxes and shipping, your Print Consultant can help you estimate these items into your ‘per book cost’.

Make A Prepayment

Friesens offers a prepayment plan, which can save you a bundle if you pay for part (or all) of your yearbook early. See the Prepayment Form in your kit or ask your Print Consultant for details.
