Why In the WORLD would I go to a Printing Company for Graphic Design?

Universal Printing takes great pride in offering the best of all graphic communication worlds: Award Winning Graphic Design, G7 Master Printer level digital output and commercial printing, and the latest in Direct Mail, featuring variable data and cross-media marketing solutions.  Over the years, we’ve worked with a lot of clients and companies who find themselves getting into a 2- or 3-prong approach with their projects: One company for design, another print, and sometimes even a third to handle the mailing.  Not a very efficient process, in our opinion.  WE always want to focus more on what is in the best interest of our clients.  Here’s a few reasons why a “single source solution” makes sense.

Technology makes a lot of things easier and more efficient.  Take QR codes for example.  EVERYONE has taken notice of QR codes, and more people want to know how to use them better.  This is true for a lot of the new technology now available for design, print, or direct mail.

Commercial Printing Awards are nice… but that’s not why we’re here!

Winning awards is nice.  There’s no other way to put it. When you work hard, doing your best day-in and day-out, it’s just nice to feel appreciated.  It’s ESPECIALLY nice when you are appreciated by your Professional peers.

Earlier this month, we were fortunate to receive awards in 3 categories at this year’s PrintImage Excellence Awards.  It’s a national competition and the judges are graphic designers, professional print buyers, printing professionals, and ad agency representatives… so pretty much people that understand printing from all sides.

Of course, it’s an honor to be recognized for our efforts but it’s important to point out that awards, while wonderful to receive, aren’t our motivation. We’re passionate about what we do.  We enjoy putting ink-on-paper… the technology behind it all… and working with our often-demanding but incredibly loyal clients.  Taking their projects, and applying our skills and experience to deliver better than imagined results, is something that really pumps us up! As Bob Moura, the president of our company likes to say, “We’re in the WOW business!”

So yes… winning awards is nice. We’re glad to have won, and we hope to win more in the future. We’ll continue to keep you updated, but in the meantime we’ll continue to do what we do: Offer innovative  printing services, high-tech business solutions like ePrint our web 2 print storefront and Symphony, our Multi Channel Marketing solution, fast  turnaround, and the commitment and experience to tie it all together in order to deliver a WOW experience for our clients.

Direct Mail isn’t going anywhere…

For years we’ve been hearing about the “paperless office” and the death of the printing industry.  While it’s true that the industry has been changing, printing is still a very trusted method of communication. What’s even more surprising is that even among the coveted 18-34 year old market segment, print is the preferred method of receiving information.

Let me say that again… (more…)
