Bulk Brochure Printing: How Much Do 2,500, 5,000 & 10,000 Brochures Cost?

Why Does Bulk Brochure Printing Cost Less Per Piece?

Commercial printing becomes more efficient as quantities increase. Fixed production steps and press efficiencies are spread across a larger print run, helping reduce the cost of each individual brochure.

That's why the total order price rises as you print more brochures, but the cost of each individual brochure can fall substantially.

Watch What Happens to the Cost Per Brochure

1,000 brochures: $248 — approximately 24.8¢ each

How Much Do 2,500 Brochures Cost?

For the 8.5" × 11", 100 lb gloss text, full-color tri-fold brochure used throughout this guide, 2,500 brochures cost $398 at Bright Print Works.

That's approximately 15.9¢ per brochure, compared with 24.8¢ each at the 1,000-piece quantity.

How Much Do 5,000 Brochures Cost?

5,000 brochures cost $568 at Bright Print Works using the same professional brochure specification.

That's approximately 11.4¢ each. Moving from 2,500 brochures to 5,000 gives you twice as many brochures for only $170 more in printing cost.

How Much Do 10,000 Brochures Cost?

For businesses with ongoing brochure needs, the 10,000-piece quantity delivers the lowest per-piece price of the quantities in this guide.

That's 10,000 professionally printed, full-color, folded brochures for less than 10 cents per brochure in printing cost.

Which Brochure Quantity Is the Best Value?

The best value isn't automatically the largest order. The real question is how many brochures your organization can realistically use before the information or design needs to change.

Choose 2,500 if you need a meaningful supply but expect your pricing, services, offers or messaging could change.

Choose 5,000 if brochures are a regular part of your sales or marketing program and you want a substantially lower cost per piece.

Choose 10,000 if you have consistent, ongoing demand and want to push your printing cost below 10¢ per brochure.

Who Should Consider Bulk Brochure Printing?

Bulk printing makes the most sense when brochures are an ongoing part of your organization's sales, marketing, education or outreach.

When Should You NOT Order 10,000 Brochures?

The lowest cost per piece doesn't automatically make 10,000 the right quantity.

If your brochure contains prices, dates, staff members, temporary offers, rapidly changing services or other information likely to become outdated, a smaller print run may make more financial sense.

The best value is the lowest cost per brochure you can realistically use.
