Commitment to quality
We'll
always lead the way when it comes to quality, because quality is
ultimately a reflection of how much we value you as a customer. The
thing is: we work with ad agencies, agents, and corporate accounts all
the time, and these clients know the difference when it comes to
quality production. We pass the scrutiny of demanding, knowledgeable
clients every day, and we work hard to surpass expectations.
Industry-best printing
Image is everything. Including sales. In fact, in the music industry,
when customers are not familiar with an artist, the leading factor for
sales is the graphic design. The quality of printing for your images
has that kind of power. We know this, and that's why we use only the
highest quality processes for everything we print. We don't even own
equipment that will print at lower standards.
What's the difference? Sit too close to the TV tonight, like three
inches away. You'll notice that the image breaks down into blocks of
colors. You no longer see your favorite weatherman, you see a beehive
of color chunks. Now grab a photograph, one developed in a photo lab.
Hold it three inches from your face and what do you see? You don't see
a beehive and chunks of color, you see a high-resolution, detailed
image where colors integrate, not separate. While other printing
processes separate color, we integrate it.
To the naked eye, our printing is as good as photographic because we
determined years ago to offer only the best. Our 400-line stochastic
hybrid screening technology gives your project a visual difference you
can see—it's more than double the industry printing standard, and it
gives your images more than 4 times the detail. We also use premium
papers and inks, and we give you a free aqueous coating that produces
an amazing glossy depth that makes your images pop.
When it comes down to it, higher-resolution printing captures the eye,
and higher quality paper just feels better in your hands. Not everyone
can tell you technically why our pieces look and feel better, they just
know they do, and that's a big deal for your clients, potential
customers, fans, and even your wallet.
Highest-quality disc replication
Disc replication is an involved process, but it is precise, and we use
the best equipment and process, which is similar to looking in a
mirror. If you want to see the most accurate reflection of yourself,
you look in the mirror. Conversely, if you want to see a poor quality
reflection, you might stick your face on a copy machine (but we don’t
recommend it!) and get a machine’s idea of what you look like. Our
glass-mastering manufacturing process is like a mirror’s
reflection—it’s accurate, and the details don’t get lost in
translation.To insure the quality of your disc replication project, we
routinely run a quality verification test on all master discs sent
to NationWide (these are the master discs that you send us for
reproduction). We check for technical problems with your master such as
BLER, pit geometry, CIRC error correction, E22 and E32 errors, and
several others. This all means that we'll make sure absolutely
nothing's wrong with your master disc. We then assign the disc an
overall quality score and check that it meets red book standards for
quality reproduction. By doing this we insure that the quality of your
recorded project is up to reproduction standards. We never charge you
for this service, we just figure you want the best audio quality
possible.
Rock-star service
If you're like us, when it's time to make a
significant purchase, you don't run straight for a salesperson, and you
don't ask the advice of a cashier. You look for an expert, and you
avoid an agenda. You want a professional—someone with working knowledge
of the investment you're about to make. Years ago we realized that to
be the best, we needed to give each client access to the professionals
that were producing their order.When you call, we give you your own
personal CSR (customer service representative)— a professional in the
industry. Our CSRs are not call center workers, and they’re not
salespeople disguised as customer service. Your CSR is your
representative on the inside of our business—they're involved with
every aspect of your project. Our CSRs have an average of 10 plus years
of experience in the industry. They're simply that good, they know what
they're doing, and they work for you.
Your CSR is always available and willing to take your call. We don't
have voicemail, and we don't filter calls. Your CSR will communicate
with you from beginning to end. Feel free to contact a CSR any weekday
between 8:00 am and 6:00 pm CST with questions. We invite you to try us
out by giving us a call. We're confident you'll experience what sets us
apart.
Interactive CDs and Video-CDs
Adding video or interactive menus to a CD is not for
everyone. For example if your CD is already formated the way you want
it and and it just needs to be duplicated then interactive authoring is
not for you. In this case your CD might be intended for use as a simple
audio CD that will just play music or you might have already done your
own authoring with menus. In either case all you need to to is send us
your master disc and we will duplicate it for you.
On the other hand if you have files and want menus added to your CD and
you want your fans to engage with your CD on a visual level but don't
know how to do that, you will probably want to keep reading. NationWide
Interactive CD and Video CD Authoring has just what you are looking
for. Find out more by visiting our CD authoring page.
Interactive CDs allow you to include an introduction page, a band logo
and an MP3 of one of your songs playing in the background, all on your
audio CD. You can also include a photo gallery, a biographical page,
and a link to your email, website, or MySpace page, with upgrade
options to add a 5-minute video or lyric gallery. This is a great way
for your fans to connect with you and your music. The NationWide
Interactive package costs $455.
The Video-CD is just one more way to show off your music's personality.
This is an option that allows you to add a 5-minute video clip of your
own original content to your audio CD. Also include your logo and one
link for no extra charge. The NationWide Video-CD package costs $455.
We can also upgrade from here if you need more. Contact us at

Up front pricing
When we give you a price, we mean it!
We've built
our business by treating our customers right, and that includes
up-front pricing that you see before you ever place an order. We don't
charge you set-up fees, we don't have hidden costs, and you won't have
to dig into your wallet for last-minute surprises. We wouldn't treat
friends that way, so we won't treat you that way.
No extra charge for color on-disc printing
Color printing on your CDs is a sign of
professionalism that we feel makes your project a better product, and
because life happens in color, we give you up to 3-color on-disc
printing at no charge. We provide film and do the actual printing free
of charge! We also offer full-color offset on-disc printing at a
nominal surcharge. Offset offers the best quality available, especially
for images that contain skin tones.
No extra charge for over runs
We don't believe in charging you more if we produce more items than
you order. If we happen to, we'll just give you the extras. No over run
charges means you don't have to pay for product that you don't order.
All orders subject to 10% under run, but you'll only be charged for the
actual quantities shipped up to your order amount. Prices do not
include shipping. Ask your CSR for details.
Insured shipping - quick replacement for projects damaged while in-transit
We take as much pride in our work as you do with your
project, and we don't consider our job done until it's in your hands.
Because of this, we take extra care in packaging your order, and we
insure it for the full amount. Less than one percent of orders are
unfortunately damaged by the shipping company and become unusable. If
that occurs, we don't believe in leaving you to battle the shipping
company for reimbursement or waiting for you to get money back to us
before we work on replacing the order.
If your project is damaged in shipment, you can relax knowing that
we
immediately begin the process to replace it. We will also work with the
shipping company to make a claim for the loss. We'll need a little help
from you, but we work through the process directly with the shipping
company, so you don't have to. We ship your new project as soon as it
is ready. No
more money is required from you.
You won't find a catch in our pricing
We're glad to tell you everything up front, and we give you the best price for the products we offer. We always have and we always will.
