As my partner for over 10 years, I saw Amazing Print Corp. grow in leaps and bounds. Not only was Slava on top of the latest trends, he was able to leverage new technologies for various ventures before they would become mainstream. While others were just getting it, Slava was already embracing the next trend. Slava knows how to get things done. His mind is like a sponge and works non-stop. Slava is always 10 steps ahead of the competition. I would highly recommend contacting Slava for all matters relating to Print Technology, SEO and Social Media.

Web to Print Software, CEO at Amazing Print Tech answered:

After launching a few thousand printer websites, here are the top 10 things to look out for:

1. Figure out if you are going after SMB or B2B market. The design online environment is different for both.

2. Figure out what kind of file you want system to produce

3. Figure out if you want an open designer (allows for most customer mistakes but opens the funnel wider) or more of a controlled designer (least amount of mistakes meaning more profit per job)

4. Figure out if you want to own the designer or if you are ok to rent it/subscribe to it

5. Figure out if you want to do your own templates or if you want the system to come with readymade templates

6. Figure out what shopping cart style you want, open source shopping cart, or a custom tailored shopping cart… what payment methods you would like to accept.

7. Figure out the scalability… what happens if the site is too busy, can your servers or your vendor servers keep up?

8. Figure out what product mix will work best, as every vendor has their own flavor from photobooks to signs to stationery items.

9. Figure out how the reporting will work. Do you want the system to talk to your MIS or email you the data or to have administrative dashboards of its own?

10. And finally figure out the marketing aspect. No matter how great the engine is… if you don’t market it, no one will find it. So if you want to look into top 10 marketing online channels for printers, connect with me offline.
