Keys to Our Success
Key 2: Provide Vital Services to Your Parent Organization
By strategically positioning ourselves to be financially solvent, we have the opportunity to provide vital services to the college that no other entity on campus can (or will) provide. As tempting as it is, Campus Graphics has not positioned itself to be a commercial printer. We have chosen to provide those products and services that best serve our parent organization, whether they are revenue-generating or not. Our goal is to become such a viable, valuable and integral part of the college that outsourcing or dismantling the in-plant would be unthinkable.
