After starting a "side gig" doing graphic design and brokering printing, I purchased a failing print shop 10 years ago. In the last 10 years, we've both grown organically and have also acquired three other printing companies, and did $1.38 million in revenue in 2022. I've organized our current business to the point that it can run without me, and I'm looking for our next acquisition.
