The importance of trusted suppliers has never been left to chance. To surround yourself with suppliers that treat you as you treat your own customers, has always been of paramount importance.
Today, matching the quality of those you purchase from adds to your reputation and keeps your customers and team workers satisfied.
A trade recommendation is like a referral from a friend, a new supplier will always add value. Your end user print customers endorse your service in a similar manner. The rewards in securing your existing customers make new business worth something that you will want to build on.
Back in the day, quick print pros all had a little black book with contact details of the very best print trade suppliers. Shared only with trusted colleagues and befriended print professionals. I guess now we should call that an ‘analogue’ directory, although I never used the word until we all turned digital.
Now that the skill of being able to pick up a phone, no doubt an analogue one, to ask a fellow frontline printer where he sourced certain supplies, have all but gone. Today we use search engines that are at our beck and call 24/365.
Our own QPP Preferred Supplier register is both tactile and viral, matching products in demand with the best contacts to supply.
The website directory is matched in the magazine so access is guaranteed even when your broadband is down.
In the interests of us all please share your favourite suppliers so we can all prosper in print.
