Small Shops, Big Plans

If your in-plant has only a handful of employees, don't feel too bad. You have lots of companionship.

But if you're using your size as an excuse for not expanding, then pay attention to what these small in-plants have been doing.

Despite having between one and seven employees, they have been thinking big, accomplishing goals that even Top 50-sized in-plants would envy—such as adding a Heidelberg NexPress 2100 digital color press, and printing four-color marketing material. They have found ways to generate new income and added capabilities that make them essential to their organizations.
