Autumn Intentions: Elevate Your Print Shop with Direct Mail

There is a difference between intentions and being intentional. Our intentions will only take us so far—without action, they end on themselves. On the other hand, a commitment to intentionally promote your print shop can change your business’s trajectory. Consider the importance of a solid marketing plan and its impact on your bottom line. The marketing materials we provide are created with your success in mind. We’d love to work with you to select the right marketing for your print shop.

5 DIRECT MAIL PACKAGE OPTIONS FOR PRINTERS

Coffee Break

Humor is a language everyone appreciates. The Coffee Break newsletter increases awareness of your print shop through lighthearted, clean humor. With a common-interest calendar and just the right amount of promotional content, Coffee Break is an easy addition to your marketing efforts. Here are a few jokes found in this month’s newsletter:

  • Fun fact: Australia’s biggest export is boomerangs. It’s also their biggest import.
  • I recently built a model of Mount Everest. My son asked, “Is it to scale?” I replied, “No … it’s to look at.”

Take a look at Coffee Break and consider all the ways it can benefit your print shop!
