Ordering from abroad
Families in the Gulf and the US order wedding cards and mementos for a function at home in Kerala. Here is how the approval works at that distance.
- 01
Send the details in writing
Names, dates, the quantity and the day the cards have to be in hand. On a wedding card these are set from what you send and from nothing else, because a card with a wrong date cannot be reprinted in time.
- 02
The quote comes back written
The same written quote a customer gets at the counter, with the revision count in it. For new clients and for large orders it shows a 50% advance.
- 03
Approve the proof by message
A proof reaches you by message and you mark changes on it. This is the step that does not get shortened for distance: the approval is still in writing, and nothing goes to press until you have seen it.
- 04
Fix the engraving text early
For a memento or a trophy, the text and the quantity have to be final before production starts, because an engraved piece cannot be corrected afterwards. That deadline sits earlier than people expect.
- 05
The work is printed and collected here
Printing happens in Pathanamthitta and the finished pieces reach the family here. The studio is on the second floor of PKR Center, opposite KSRTC, open Monday to Saturday.
