If you have watched as many movies and TV series as I have since March of last year, ‘vig’ may be a term you are familiar with. Vig … is slang for vigorish. Vig is the juice, the squeeze, the charge that a businessperson gets for helping broker a transaction or...

When the magazine I ran for 22 years closed its doors, the owners offered me all the business data and customer lists for free. They were not going to do anything with it, and everything would be purged by the end of the tax year. So I said yes. Saying yes not only...

If you are tired of hearing me take some liberal leaps and tie TV shows, Broadway musicals, and movies into lessons about sales and printing, perhaps you had better give this blog post a pass. Because I am about to regale you with my obsession with TED LASSO. I...

One of the early segments of PrintSampleTV featured an important marriage of content and paper embodied in a restaurant menu. Full disclosure! Our family owns three restaurants and because we are also in the print industry, we wanted to balance our needs with what...

Greetings Citizens of the Printerverse and welcome to a New Year! It is a new year, right? The calendar has changed but, in many ways, it feels like 2020 is still lingering. This annual post has traditionally focused on what is in front of us, but honestly, there is...

My name is David Murphy and I love to help printers bring value to new customers. In fact, it’s been my passion for over three decades (and I’m still young!) When I was in high school in the ‘80s, my friends worked in restaurants and mall stores. Those jobs were...

Over the decades I’ve developed a love affair with print samples. It started back in high school when I worked in a print shop that had been in business since the 1700s. We ran a web press in house, though the newspapers were done over at Princeton Packet. Promotional...

What’s your “word”? You can’t spend five minutes on social media in January without having ten of your friends, especially those in direct sales, ask you what your WORD of 2021 is going to be. My WORD? Yes, your word. Your word of focus. The word that will make all...

I am counting the days to 2021 as if it were my release date from prison. I’m keeping my head down, not rocking any boats, just trying to make it through the next few weeks without being sent to the hole or getting shivved. This year has truly been unprecedented and...

The year that seemed it would never end, and that most people said was the worst they have ever experienced, is ending. Let’s take a moment to sit with that. Let it wash over you. It’s almost over. And now, it is time to start making plans for 2021 and beyond. Don’t...

Imagine having to drive 45 minutes for a haircut, or to get clothing altered. Imagine no malls or shopping centers to stroll through on a rainy Sunday. Imagine no family-owned restaurants to bring out of town guests, no local bars to watch the big game, no local small...

Not only am I a TV junkie, but I like to fancy myself a trendsetter (kinda). And so, I am proud to say that I have been watching Schitt’s Creek since it premiered on the POP TV network back in January of 2015. If you have never seen it and you like comedies, I would...
