3. LET’S TURN YOUR IDEAS INTO REALITY . . .
Let's turn your ideas into reality. I offer 36 years
experience and references in Graphic Design and the
Printing business. I feel my knowledge of the printing
business may eliminate some of the problems that come
from sources not familiar with the process required for a
professional end result.
Many customers come to me with a vague idea and lots
of information they need put into a brochure, poster,
business card, postcard, actually any printed matter. We
discuss what they are wanting.
I then take all the pieces and put them together, add a
few variations and then email a proof.
It really makes no difference if we meet in my office, or
over the phone. With today's technology everything can
be done on-line. You can email me your digital files, pdfs,
everything you need in you printed piece. I feel confident
after we discuss what you are looking for, I will be able to
email you a proof that you will be very happy with. Once
we make any modifications, I can send it off to be printed
and shipped directly to you.
I look forward to talking to you about your project. Gail
Norman
