Print Perspectives

Furniture retailer achieves multi-channel brand consistency through print

“At the end of the day, our partnership with FedEx Office leads to the consistent look of the stores. It leads to bringing in customers. And it leads to sales.”

— Matthew Smigiel, Designer

Challenges

Using three to five online print vendors
meant working with a new point of contact for each new project.

They had to sacrifice the formats and substrates they wanted for whatever was available from each different vendor.

Project management was time-consuming and frustrating, and required extensive explanation.

Quality and pricing were inconsistent between vendors, so retail signage looked different from store to store and forecasting was a challenge.

Solutions

“Working with FedEx Office was like night and day from working with online retailers. With them, you’re just another number. Now, [with FedEx Office] I’m able to say ‘I need to order what I did last time,’ and they know exactly what I’m talking about. There’s no comparison.”
