Government Printers Meet in New Orleans
Holdo and Stainbrook concluded the talk by serving the food Holdo had prepared (including the most delicious grits this Yankee editor has ever tasted—yes, I said grits).
Successful In-plant Marketing
To encourage government in-plant managers to market their services, Sherri Isbell, from the University of Oklahoma, gave a presentation filled with examples of successful marketing campaigns she has spearheaded at OU. These include open houses, "lunch & learn" sessions and Webinars. The in-plant runs Printing 101 classes to teach customers about file preparation and design. To thank loyal customers, Isbell sends them cookie baskets during the winter holidays. When the shop wins In-Print awards, it creates duplicate plaques and presents them to its customers.
