What a Life!

Why is this press release on my blog? To prove that I come from good stock. Arden and Barbara are my parents…

Barbara and Arden Hagele, ImPRESSive Printing and Copy Center, Tampa, Florida, received the Superior Performance in Print Shop Management award for 2006 from CPrint®, Certified Printers International, at the organization’s biannual board meeting in Jacksonville, Florida. CPrint® presents this, its highest award, to printing companies who maintain high standards of operational performance as measured by financial strength, profitability, and growth.

According to Tom Crouser, CPrint® President, ImPRESSive Printing and Copy Center’s performance ranks it in the top five percent of all printing companies in North America. CPrint® sets the bar high for its performance awards and ImPRESSive Printing and Copy Center has exceeded those goals.

Arden Hagele said that the award was owed to a team effort,“I attribute this achievement to the teamwork of our employees, the confidence and loyalty of our customers, the encouragement of members of the CPrint® Alliance, the training by the CPrint® staff, and the blessing of our Creator and Sustainer.”

ImPRESSive Printing and Copy Center is an example of how a family-based business can prosper amidst ever increasing competition by focusing on principles and practices geared to exceptional customer service, by truly transcending what customers want and going to the heart of what customers need. Barbara and Arden Hagele say that becoming part of CPrint® helped them build a solid foundation for their business.

CPrint® is an organization of independently owned family-based businesses that strive for professionalism and performance among small businesses that commonly lack highly developed systems and leadership. Companies from throughout North America participate in the program. The CPrint® designation is available only to printers who demonstrate exceptional quality and service by maintaining standards in operations, training, equipment and software as well as worker benefits and working conditions. This program requires annual onsite recertification as well as participation in continuing educational programs. ImPRESSive Printing and Copy Center is the only company in the Tampa area currently to qualify for the program.

ImPRESSive Printing and Copy Center is located at 1827 E. Fowler Avenue in Tampa, Florida. For more information about the company, call 813-558-8999 or visit the company’s website at www.impressive-printing.com.
