DEPENDABLE EQUIPMENT FOR YOUR PEACE OF MIND

“There’s a relationship going forward. There’s a human element, a friendship element.”

- Jamie Buhr, Midwest Graphics & Awards

Even before the camera started rolling, Jamie Buhr of Midwest Graphics & Awards, located in Ann Arbor, Michigan, began to share his experiences in the screen printing industry. Experiences that everyone who runs a custom screen-printing operation knows all too well, which Jamie summed up with: “If anything can go wrong, it probably will.” From shipping issues to vendors who don’t have the garments you want in stock, it’s always something.

While there’s no way to engineer a fool-proof solution for all the challenges a screen printing and embroidery entrepreneur faces, there are some concrete ways to reduce the problems that can impact a business’s bottom line. (And give a business owner peace of mind.) Buhr found that having reliable equipment backed by good customer support ensured he could deliver high-quality products on-time to his customers. Even more important to him was the ability to establish a relationship with the manufacturing company. In Anatol Equipment Mfg. Co., Buhr found a company that could give him a great working relationship, as well as dependable machines. In the video below, Buhr relates how, when he was working with a major corporation (“in a past life,” as he puts it), he quickly learned to tell the difference between who just wanted to make a sale, and who was interested in a relationship on a human level.

Anatol’s efforts to foster a personal connection with clients within the professional relationship matched Midwest Graphics’ own approach to serving customers. Midwest and Anatol both believe a customers’ experience should be fast, easy, affordable, and tailored to the individual. With their shared ethic, Midwest Graphics immediately established a partnership with Anatol. “We have a friendship with their representatives and technicians,” says Buhr. "There’s a relationship going forward. There’s a human element, a friendship element. I’m grateful I went through this whole experience with Anatol.”

Midwest Graphics & Awards currently serves their customers with the Anatol Titan and Anatol Horizon presses. “My mantra,” Buhr tells his staff, “is, if [the product] isn’t something you would wear or give to your family or friends, then don’t give it to our customers.” Anatol’s presses have exceeded the expectations of the company and provide the quality, dependability, and speed Buhr and Midwest were looking for to meet the needs of their customers.
