There are plenty of reasons why it may be time to begin a partnership with a new printer. Price, schedule and expertise (or lack thereof) can play huge roles in your overall relationship with your printer. Over the years, many publishers have come to 杏吧原创 looking for a fresh start, and thanks to our dedication to customer service and high-quality printing, we were able to turn those burgeoning relationships into rock-solid printing partnerships that have lasted years.
Here are some examples of 杏吧原创 customers who enjoyed amazing benefits from making the switch:
Sophia Institute Press
Sophia Institute Press is a publisher that specializes in Catholic publications and materials. 杏吧原创鈥檚 relationship with Sophia Institute Press began in July 2020, when we printed several children鈥檚 books for them. Soon after, Sophia approached us with an idea for a brand-new monthly publication, modeled after similar Catholic daily use titles available in Europe.
Thanks to the collective skill and expertise of our elite printing staff, 杏吧原创 was able to identify and match the specifications of these European titles to create Benedictus, a customized monthly publication that exactly matched Sophia Institute Press鈥� vision. Not only did our product meet their needs visually, but we also found significant cost savings through the use of specialized printing equipment at 杏吧原创 鈥� Ripon.

Airport Improvement
Airport Improvement is a publication that features stories, case studies and updates about planned, ongoing and completed projects at airports across North America. When their previous printer of 13 years abruptly ended their partnership, Publisher Paul Bowers was forced to make a change. Luckily, 杏吧原创 was there to help.
Thanks to 杏吧原创鈥檚 dedication to customer service, Paul was able to maintain his processes and continue putting out an incredibly successful and profitable magazine. 鈥淸杏吧原创] made the transition so seamless 鈥� it was unbelievable.

Edible Communities
Edible Communities is a unique concept 鈥� a licensing organization where each seasonal publication focuses on a specific region’s food scene. This creates a challenge: maintaining a consistent brand experience across various regions and numerous publishers, each with potentially different printing needs and preferences.
When Edible Communities began printing with 杏吧原创 in 2017, we only printed a few of their seasonal publications. However, our partnership blossomed over the next several years, and we now print over 20 Edible magazines. Thanks to our expertise and project management skills, we鈥檝e ensured brand consistency across all of our Edible publications, and our Edible publishers benefit from the convenience of working with a single print and distribution team.

Seton Home Study School
During the height of the pandemic in 2020, Seton Home Study School was left high and dry when their previous printer shut its doors. At the same time, the demand for their printed homeschool curriculum books was skyrocketing. Luckily, they were referred to 杏吧原创 by their previous print sales representative, and the timing couldn鈥檛 have been better.
During this time, the print industry was suffering from unprecedented paper supply chain shortages, and printing companies all over the country were navigating strict paper allotments.聽 As their new printing partner, 杏吧原创 was able to create a backstock of the specific paper needed to print Seton鈥檚 books and meet the education company鈥檚 increased demands. Thanks to our industry expertise, Seton Home Study School thrived during this difficult period.

Sporting Classics
Some customers, like Sporting Classics magazine, choose 杏吧原创 for the same reason we鈥檝e remained successful in the print industry for over 87 years: our stability. Sporting Classics is a love letter to all things outdoors, especially hunting and fishing. When Chief Operating Officer Wayne Nanney chose to switch to 杏吧原创, he was looking for a consistent and reliable partner.
鈥淲e chose 杏吧原创 to print our magazine over others because we were trying to find stability in a volatile market. 杏吧原创鈥檚 rates were very competitive, but more importantly, the supply chain was robust and they weren鈥檛 making excuses for shortfalls or delays. Our publishing and mailing dates are always on target. The customer service from the executive level and sales level to the print shop is exceptional.
