Why Print a Booklet or Catalog?
Some things are too big for a flyer. A full menu of services, a product line, a price list, a training guide, or an event program needs room. A booklet gives it that room and keeps it in order, so people can flip right to what they want. It also sticks around. People keep a good catalog on the counter or in a drawer and pull it out when they are ready to buy, sometimes months later.
A calendar works the same way, only longer. Hang one on a customer’s wall and your name is in front of them every day for a whole year. That is a lot of reminders for the price of one piece of print. Once someone sees your booklet or calendar, they may look you up online, so make sure they can find you. Here is why a business might not show up on Google.
Types of Booklets, Catalogs, and Calendars We Print
Here is what we make, split into booklets, catalogs, and calendars. Each one has a short “best for” note to help you choose.
Booklets
Gloss Booklets
Shiny pages that make photos pop. Pick 5.5 x 8.5, 6 x 9, or 8.5 x 11, from 8 up to 72 pages, stapled in the middle. Add a coating for extra shine or a softer satin look.
Best for: Product guides, look books, and real estate.
Matte Booklets
A flat, smooth page with no glare, so it is easy to read under any light. Photos still look sharp. Comes in 5.5 x 8.5 or 8.5 x 11, from 8 to 52 pages.
Best for: Guides, manuals, and reports.
Uncoated Booklets
Paper that feels like a good notebook page, so people can write on it with any pen. Great when readers need to fill something in or take notes.
Best for: Workbooks, training, and event programs.
Heavy Gloss Booklets
Every page is thick, glossy card stock, not just the cover. It feels sturdy in your hand and holds up to lots of use.
Best for: Short look books, menus, and presentations.
Satin Booklets
A soft, low shine page with a smooth coating. It looks rich without the glare of gloss. Comes in 8.5 x 11, from 4 to 16 pages.
Best for: Health care, wellness, and service guides.
Catalogs
Stapled Catalogs
Up to 52 pages stapled in the middle, with a heavier cover if you want one. A stapled catalog lies flat when open and is the best price for most page counts.
Best for: Price lists, product lines, and seasonal sales.
Perfect Bound Catalogs
The pages are glued into a square spine, like a paperback book. It looks and feels premium, and you can print your name on the spine. From 28 to 92 pages.
Best for: Big product catalogs, art books, and annual reports.
Calendars
Wall Calendars
Stapled in the middle with a hole to hang on a nail. Pick 8.5 x 11, 9 x 12, or a big 12 x 12. Put a different photo on every month.
Best for: Year-long reminders on customers’ walls.
Spiral Calendars
A wire spiral at the top lets each month flip over clean and flat. Comes tall or wide, with a hole to hang it.
Best for: Offices, shops, and garages.
Hard Cover Calendars
A thick, stiff cover keeps the calendar from curling and gives it a high-end feel. It makes a great gift for your best customers.
Best for: Client gifts and year-end thank-yous.

Booklet Tips That Get Your Pages Read
Count by Fours
A stapled booklet is made from sheets folded in half, so the page count must be a multiple of 4, like 8, 12, or 16. Blank pages count, too.
Make the Cover Work
The cover is your ad. Use one big photo and a short title so people know what is inside before they open it.
Add Page Numbers
Page numbers and a short table of contents help people find what they want fast, especially in a catalog.
Plan Calendars Early
Order calendars by early fall so they reach customers before the new year starts. Late calendars get tossed.
Your booklet should send people somewhere that turns them into customers. If your website or Google listing needs help, our digital marketing team can fix that. Planning to mail your booklets? The Postal Service has a simple guide to mail sizes and prices.

Booklet, Catalog, and Calendar Questions
Here are answers to the questions we hear most.
How much does it cost to print a booklet?
It depends on the size, the number of pages, the paper, and how many copies you need. More pages cost more, but each copy costs less as you order more. Text or call Markit Media at 480.245.4287 and a real person will send you an exact price.
What is the difference between a booklet and a catalog?
They are close cousins. A booklet is usually shorter and stapled in the middle. A catalog shows products for sale and can be stapled or have a square glued spine. We use the same papers for both.
What is saddle stitch binding?
It means the pages are folded in half and stapled through the fold. Most magazines and programs are made this way. It is fast, lies fairly flat, and is the best price for up to about 52 pages.
What is perfect binding?
The pages are glued into a flat, square spine, like a paperback book. It works for thicker catalogs and looks very professional. You can even print the title on the spine.
How many pages can a booklet have?
Our stapled booklets go from 8 up to 72 pages, depending on the paper. For more pages, a perfect bound catalog goes up to 92. The page count for a stapled book must be a multiple of 4.
Why does my page count have to be a multiple of 4?
Each sheet of paper folds in half to make 4 pages. So a stapled booklet always has 8, 12, 16, or more pages in steps of 4. If you are one page short, we can add a notes page or an ad.
Can you make a custom calendar with my own photos?
Yes. Send us 12 photos, one for each month, plus a cover photo. We add your logo and contact info and build the whole calendar for you.
When should I order calendars?
Early fall is best. That gives time to design, print, and hand them out before January. Calendars that show up in February often end up in a drawer.
How long does printing take?
Most booklets and catalogs are ready in a few business days after you approve your proof. Larger page counts and calendars can take a little longer. Text us your date and we will plan around it.
Do you help with design?
Yes. We can lay out your whole booklet, catalog, or calendar, from the cover to the last page. A real person works with you until it looks right.
Do you only work with businesses in Scottsdale?
No. We print booklets and catalogs for businesses all over the Phoenix Valley, including Phoenix, Tempe, Mesa, Chandler, Gilbert, and Peoria. Text us from anywhere in the Valley.
