A print shop is mainly judged on its product
quality. For instance the designs you print on
card or t-shirts. Always remember that the more
attractive your designs the more they will
attract new clients. Graphic design is a type of
art and hence you should be able to experiment
with your creativity as well as imagination. Look
at what is trending for instance in t-shirt
printing and try to make your own versions of the
trending pattern. If you do not provide different
varieties of quality work people will not have
any clue as to your potential and they will often
go somewhere else to find variety.

Room Service delivery is never perfect in any
business. This means there is always room to make
an improvement. Customer service should be
efficient in the eyes of the client and should
make them feel comfortable with trusting you to
handle large printing gigs. Restructure your
service provision to be more time efficient and
also to be able to provide a rapport with the
clients. Clients love print shops that can
deliver before stipulated deadlines just in case
there are any corrections to be made. As for
rapport with client, you should try to treat your
clients like human beings instead of inanimate
businesses. Get to know your clients on a
personal level if possible, as this will lead to
client referrals and loyalty in longevity.

business do not understand that giving more than
you are paid for is the key to success. This
translates to that extra thing you give to your
clients that sets you apart from the rest. It

holder for being a loyal customer or even a cup
of coffee while they await their print. The
bottom line is dont just exchange money for
service but also make your client feel
appreciated. Remember the saying the best things
in life are free. well, clients are very
conversant of this and they do love free things.
