i dont imagine there is any great margins in printing for publishers, but i was surprised at the volumes claimed. Good luck if they are achieving that, but the manufacturer states a duty cycle of about 90 million a month - we all know that's perfect world stuff achieved in a showroom, not in real life, so if the 40 million figure is correct, id say SOS are already looking at a second one.
40 million pages a month? Hmmmmmmmmmmmm
So do PMP and IPMG get their deposits back?
Agreed there. If nothing else, he is aware that a national footprint gives PMP real leverage when it comes to the bigger retail contracts, and that you dont have to drop your pants on price in order to retain work. Fair play to him.
I thought Impact was performing well? I thought the lessons learned from the Agency/Graphic World/Dynamic debacles were burned into the minds of senior management? I feel sorry for the people whose hard work and dedication made this place a great competitor in the market, and the majority of will be left finding new employment.
Hey! I resemble that remark!
Graham, i thought that was obvious - we dont like you! By the way, dont lose your sense of humour. By the way, for your information printers have been giving to charities and non profits for years - probably centuries. Go to the reception of any sized printer to see the thankyou certificates. Thumbs up to your staff for driving an initiative like this (come on, lets be honest - a few cycling nuts are the ones behind this), but thumbs down for Geon trying to a few cheap PR points - when clearly it is the role of a good and decent corporate citizen to leverage some kind of goodwill for the benefit of charity. Google PMP and Youth Off The Streets to see what can be achieved when large communications company meets non profit. You may learn something.
i thought they WERE a charity!
