How much does is the POS for coffee shops?

Conceptualization

If you do not have any ideas for what to put or what promotions you want to have. They are hundreds of agencies in Singapore rushing to give you a hand.

For a fee of course. A single turn promotion concept can set you back by $400-500. Usually, they work on retainer basis ranging from $400 to $2000.

So, the very minimum that you need to pay would be at least $400.00.

Designing

Some agencies bundle the concept with design, most do not. A simple layout and artwork would cost you about $300-500.

So, expect to pay about $300 for designing of your posters, coupons etc.

Printing

Printing of a x-stand banner cost about $200. 5000 pieces of A4 flyers is about $400.00.

Generally, for a simple promotion, you would need to spend about $500-1000, just on the printing of materials. Of course, some of them are re-usable.

Total Cost

Regardless of the magnitude of your promotion, once you embark on one, expect to pay at least $1000.00 for it.
