Who we print for

A new patient feels the practice before anyone says hello. The folder they carry out, the card they keep, the brochure in the chair: that is the practice. Jeppson Dental, a family dental practice, needed a packet a new patient could take home. The folder opens onto a printed bio and a short list of how a visit works. A full-color insert lies across it, built around a photograph of a family. The logo is on the insert and on the folder, so the packet still names Jeppson Dental after the insert comes out. Practices also hand over business cards and brochures that explain a service without a lecture. The piece that holds it all is a presentation folder.

The card is the shop, the moment it changes hands. The cards we printed for DeSpain The Subaru Specialist are black, with a silver star and a blue swoosh. Two of them sit in front of a stack. The top card shows the DeSpain name, an engine illustration, and the line The Subaru Specialist. Whoever takes that card already knows the shop is the specialist. A business card is the piece they keep. A flyer covers a promotion the shop wants seen. A sticker puts the same name on a box or a window.

The menu is the meal before the first bite. The Bagel Shop needed a menu a guest would recognize at the table. The piece is a tall card. The cover is chalkboard-style: a round logo, the line "More than just a bagel," and the word Menu set large. That is the side a guest sees before any dish. Restaurant menus can be a single sheet, a fold, a tent on the table, or a takeout sheet that leaves with the bag. You name the one you need. A flyer can carry a special off the menu. A door hanger can put that special on a knob down the street. We print them. You decide where they go.

People judge the firm from the envelope, before they open it. Apex Insurance and Advance Insurance are two firms, each with its own envelope and its own logo. One carries a red and gray mountain. The other carries a red and gray curve along the bottom. A closed face that looks settled is the whole point. Envelopes and letterhead do that job. Business cards are what a client keeps after the meeting. Door hangers are what a real estate team uses for an open house on that street. We print them and ship them. We do not walk the route.

An event gets one sheet to explain itself. Clinch River Home Healthcare needed that sheet for its Atomic Auto Show. The flyer leads with a red headline and drawings of a classic car and a pickup. Under the art, three boxes divide the rest: where it is held, the entry details, and how to register. The logo and the website run along the bottom. A flyer does that job in one sheet, handed to a person. A door hanger stays on a knob until someone takes the invitation inside. A postcard is the same news when it should arrive in the mail.
