Since implementing CRC, Impressive Labels’ annual sales have increased over 500%. The return on investment CRC provided was realized immediately. “We are saving $20,000 or more a month, $300,000 annually, by using CRC,” according to Tom Berg, Corporate Secretary and Treasurer. “The time savings received in just accessing our data are tremendous.”

CRC also helped spread technology and savings throughout the shop floor. “We have machine monitoring data collection units hooked up to 21 presses and die cutters calculating and tracking paper usage and waste. The amount of money we have saved and the information gained are immeasurable,” says Cord Clonts. “Also, CRC allows us to easily maintain and track $450,000 worth of inventory comprised of over 450 different stocks in 28 different slit widths.”

With the help of CRC, Impressive Labels’ ten estimators/CSRs are able to generate over 800 estimates weekly. Their order entry person enters over 80 orders per day. The speed, accuracy, stability, and savings provided by CRC have helped Impressive Labels achieve the sales and efficiency levels that they are at today. Tom Berg believes it is only the beginning of what is to come. ”CRC’s open database structure is a brand new source of savings for us. We are having a lot of fun accessing the data and generating all types of reports on our own.”

Impressive Labels has maximized their revenue and minimized their costs by allowing CRC to automate many of their largest time consuming activities and by taking advantage of the technological capabilities provided by the software. CRC has allowed Impressive Labels to focus their employees’ attention towards developing new, cutting edge label manufacturing processes, further strengthening their position as the market leader.
