At my previous job I had to do a lot of advertising and marketing. Which meant I had to do a lot of printing. And of course when you think of large-scale printing and copying the most common thing that pops into your head is Kinko's. And that's not necessarily bad. Kinko's offers great services, but I always felt that maybe their prices were a bit on the high side, given that they're really the only printing services company with any widespread, national name recognition.

I always thought there had to be another printer with prices that were a bit cheaper, but still had great customer service. Then one day I saw some amazing posters from a co-worker and asked where she had them done. She told me of another co-worker of mine whose father owned a printing company and did amazing work. So I talked to him, wondering why he had never said anything before. He didn't want there to be any type of conflict-of-interest, so he never mentioned it. But since I brought it up, now he could tell me all about it.

And that's how I learned of KPB Commercial Printing.

A small operation opened in 1994 by three individuals (the KPB stands for their last names...Kanet Pol & Bridges) this printer does tremendous work at great prices while providing stellar customer service. I used them strictly for printing posters, flyers, and an occasional banner (one time I did order wrists bands from them), but they do offer other services as well. You can create your own design and send it to them to be copied, or if you need the help, they have graphic designers on staff who will take your ideas and create the poster for you.

As I mentioned before, the customer service was great. Basic orders such as posters and flyers are almost always done by the next day. And delivery is made by an employee of the company, usually one of the owners...usually Mr. Bridges. As a matter of fact I dealt directly with Mr. Bridges on almost every order I placed and as a customer I couldn't have been more pleased. Polite, courteous, friendly, professional, knowledgeable, and always looking out for the best interest of his customers. On at least two occasions, he personally delivered a proof of a poster for my approval, when the easiest thing would have been to just e-mail a copy of what it looked like. Customer service doesn't get much better than that.

When I first started doing business with KPB, nobody could beat their prices. After awhile though, they did start to inch up. Prices can be a little higher than normal (they are after all a small privately-owned company that has to compete with a corporate giant like Kinko's) but they are very reasonable. And the customer service and quality of the work is such that the extra pennies you spend are well worth it. It's a great company, with great employees, and great services. Tri-fecta!

Mahalo, and enjoy.
