Advertising Review from Eric Lachter
What can I say? Josh and DOL are the best. The best copy, the best ideas, the best strategy. Josh and his team helped us up-level our work to be as good as any Fortune 100 global consumer brand. I love his fresh thinking, concise writing and bold approach to grabbing attention in a world where that is the name of the game. Cannot recommend them more highly.

Digital Marketing Review from Michael Margolis
We engaged Division of Labor as our boutique advertising partner for Michigan Healthcare Professionals, and we were absolutely blown away by the results. Not only did the campaigns resonate deeply they elevated our branding and connected exceptionally well with our target audience.
The work they delivered didn't just look great it performed. The campaign not only helped improve patient outcomes but also effectively promoted the benefits of utilizing non-facility-based imaging and laboratory testing. The messaging was clear, compelling, and perfectly aligned with our strategic goals.
What impressed us most was how far beyond expectations Division of Labor went. Their creativity, responsiveness, and can-do attitude made working with them an absolute pleasure. No matter the challenge, their mindset is essentially: If theres a question, the answer is yes just tell us what the question is.
We couldn't be more satisfied with the partnership and results, and we highly recommend Division of Labor to any organization seeking thoughtful, impactful, and results-driven marketing.

Anna and her team at Hibiscus Brand Management are incredible! She designed two of my businesses’ websites and logos (Godspeed Real Estate & Development and Ashley J Design), and the results are eye-pleasing and perfectly aligned with our vision.
She just makes the process so easy, and the results feel so right. Anna’s ability to capture the essence of a brand with her creativity and precision is unmatched. Her professionalism and attention to detail made the entire experience enjoyable and stress-free.
If you’re looking for someone to bring your ideas to life and create something exceptional, I highly recommend Anna at Hibiscus Brand Management!

Anna Smith, of Hibiscus Brand Management, is brilliant at reflecting who you are and what your business is through your website and branding. Once I hired her, my brand and online presence started to feel like me, and my business “grew up”. And my website and cards are so BEAUTIFUL! I have gotten many compliments since we re-branded. Anna listens and always has creative and progressive ideas. My business used to basically just be running on word of mouth referrals, but since working with Anna, I get so many more contacts through my website, people find me just through a google search, and they say they choose me because my website speaks to them! As a bonus, she is a great person and easy to talk to - I always feel like I learn something new about leveraging a website and social media for success, and different marketing strategies, even if that is not the intent of my call. I would recommend Anna to all of my friends in business!

Working with Precision Marketing Partners during my time at M&F Bank was amazing! I had the chance to work super closely with Sam, and she is by far one of the best!! Organized, creative, and always ten steps ahead. As a bank with limited manpower, we heavily relied on Precision as an extension of our in house team. We were always juggling a million moving parts but Sam she made it feel seamless. A true team player.
Behind the scenes, Jen and Greg are the real deal. Marketing experts with years of experience, they bring strategy, clarity, and straight-up wisdom to every project. They’ve built a team that knows how to deliver results without losing the personal touch.
If you’re looking for a marketing agency that’s sharp, collaborative, and just gets it done, you need Precision on your team. They truly live up to their name.

Working with Precision Marketing Partners (PMP) for over a decade has been one of the best investments my company has made. They've been able to pull together all of the various advertising, marketing, and public relations components of our brand and help to turn it into a recognizable brand with a favorable reputation with recognized ties to the community. We will continue to partner with PMP in the future because as our needs change, and as do the expectations of our market, PMP will advise us in the proper direction with confidence and certainty.

Thompson & Prince delivers impeccable quality of bespoke content.
I'm the CEO of a startup biotech company and Thompson & Prince worked with me to create the level of branding that is appropriate for my company's stage and budget. They built a strong foundation that we can build upon as the company advances.
The team also helped me develop a corporate deck, partnering with outside consultants to support specific scientific needs that I had for the deck content. The final product of this challenging assignment is exactly what I had in mind.
I look forward to working with Thompson & Prince for years to come.

I would highly recommend working with Thompson & Prince! I worked with the team to redo our (eye sore of a) pitch deck and they were absolutely phenomenal. It was clear that they understood what investors wanted to see and the health & wellness space more broadly. They worked within our brand guidelines to present different options for the look and feel of the deck. Once I selected an option, they iterated on the slides and quickly incorporated any feedback I had to create the final version. They were very communicative and speedy while delivering high quality work. They finished all of this in less than two weeks and would have finished sooner if I had given them feedback faster. They go above and beyond to make sure that their client loves the final product and to support your business as a founder. I thoroughly enjoyed working with them and they really surpassed my expectations. I would definitely work with them again!

Frequently Asked Questions About Print Design Agencies
What services do these agencies typically offer?
Print design companies create visual assets specifically for physical media, ensuring designs translate accurately from screen to print in terms of color, layout, and material quality.
Their services typically include:
Marketing collateral design: Brochures, flyers, catalogs, postcards, and other printed promotional materials.
Brand stationery: Business cards, letterheads, envelopes, folders, and branded office assets.
Packaging and label design: Product packaging, boxes, labels, and inserts designed for retail and distribution.
Editorial and long-form layouts: Magazines, books, newspapers, reports, and multi-page publications.
Print-ready file preparation: Color setup, layout finalization, bleed and trim settings, and coordination with printers to ensure accurate production.
These services remain in demand because print itself is still growing. The U.S. commercial printing market is projected to grow at a 3.1% CAGR from 2025 to 2030, reaching over $150 billion by 2030.
Which industries benefit most from investing in professional print design?
Industries that rely on physical touchpoints and in-person decision-making see the most substantial returns from professional print design, such as:
Retail and eCommerce: In 2024, packaging was the largest U.S. commercial printing application, influenced by retail and consumer goods. Professionally designed packaging, labels, and promotional materials directly impact brand perception and purchase decisions.
Healthcare and pharmaceuticals Print remains essential for patient instructions, compliance signage, and regulated packaging.
Hospitality, events, and tourism Signs, banners, and posters were the highest-revenue print product category in 2024, supporting guest navigation and event branding where digital access is limited or impractical.
Real estate and corporate services High-value transactions depend on brochures and property materials that reinforce professionalism and credibility.
Education and nonprofits Printed materials such as brochures, posters, and direct mail remain effective for awareness and fundraising, particularly with offline audiences.
How do I choose the best printing method for my business?
Choosing the right printing method when searching for a print design firm is a production decision. It depends on what you’re printing, how much you need, and where it will be used.
Here’s what you should consider:
Defining the purpose of the print
Marketing materials, packaging, signage, and operational documents all require different durability, finishes, and visual impact
Considering print volume
High-volume runs are typically more cost-efficient with offset or lithographic printing
Low-volume or variable runs are better suited for digital printing with minimal setup costs
Matching the method to the material
Screen printing: apparel, fabric, or promotional products
Large-format printing: banners, posters, or displays
Flexographic printing: labels and packaging
Assessing quality and finish requirements
Projects requiring precise color control or brand consistency benefit from higher-resolution printing methods
Accounting for turnaround time and flexibility
Digital and print-on-demand methods support faster production and personalization without excess inventory
When do print design agencies recommend print over digital design?
Print design is typically recommended when brands need trusted exposure that supports long-term brand recognition rather than short-term digital traffic.
High-trust marketing Print ads are more trusted during purchasing decisions. A study found that 82% of U.S. consumers trust print ads, compared to 61% for search ads and 25% for digital pop-ups, making print effective for high-consideration products and services.
Physical brand touchpoints Print works best for materials people keep or interact with physically, such as brochures, packaging, business cards, signage, and direct mail.
Local and in-store impact Retail, real estate, healthcare, and hospitality brands benefit from print for in-store promotions, menus, and informational materials where digital access may be limited or distracting.
Campaigns requiring focus Print reduces competition for attention compared to crowded digital environments, helping messages stand out without relying on interactivity or screen time.
How much do top print design companies in the U.S. charge?
In 2025, top print design firms charge between $100 and $150 per hour. Here are the average costs by print asset:
Business cards: $50-$2,500
Book covers: $150-$500
Posters: $150-$250 per hour
Billboards: $150-$500 per hour
Banners & signage: $600-$800
Brochures & flyers: $2,500-$10,000
