A Passion for Printing

Delgado loves what he does. “I care about it. It’s my passion. I train my employees that way. I make sure that every job that goes out of here is a quality job. It’s a reflection of us. It’s a reflection of them... I think that’s the key factor to a successful business.”

According to Delgado, one key to good management is to show the staff that you’re not afraid to get your hands dirty. “I have no problem going in and helping them,” he enthuses. “That’s huge for managers, that you’re not above them. You’re not afraid to go in and help them in any way you can. It’s a big morale booster.”
