The introduction of the video interview Morten from Inkish.tv had with me, contains some quotes and promises from Benny Landa. These are only a few quotes. In preparation of that interview with Morten, I dug […]
Selling print, it’s something special. I’ve seen all kinds of print salespeople, from printers who excelled at networking and sold their products this way, to the complete opposite: pure online sales. Whether the one or […]
If there is one printing company that excels at using social media, it’s Reclameland.nl (Simian). Wouter (the owner and literary the ‘face’ of the company) does an excellent job! And I mean that. And his […]
It’s a controversial topic, but we need to address it. And now is the right time: do we still need visual, on-site press checks (press approvals)? Is it still necessary for a print buyer or […]
I hit a nerve with my article on the Adobe-Pantone breakup and how brand owners and designers should deal with it. And most reactions were very positive, acknowledging that NOW is the right time to […]
