Variable Data Printing and Print Brokering. Electronic Prepress. Consulting.
Unique pieces of print media are generated from an Excel spread sheet or from your list of clients. Every printed piece is customized with only appropriate items the intended target will respond to. For instance; their name (not ‘occupant’ or ‘resident’) and their buying preferences. Photos, logos, blocks of text and even colors are inserted on the fly for their particular field of interest.

Interview Q&A
How long have you been in business?
10 months. Before that I was employed by several top rated printing companies.
What is your primary product or service?
Variable Data Printing. A.K.A. 1to1, Personalization, etc.
How did you first become interested in your line of business? (if owner) - What is your background? (If owner or store manager)
This is the new frontier for printing. Variable will drive customers from their mail box to your website. That's the power of Variable! Every time the drum turns around there's a new image on it! A printer who relies solely on offset may soon be in trouble unless they have solid accounts for their offset business. Printers looking to get into Variable' need a sales team that can sell variable.
