DDB wanted an outgoing, detail-oriented print production manager who would be a team player and hit the ground at high speed. I did that.

• VHA had no centralized marketing or print production function, but wanted one. For them I:
• Reduced print costs on annual healthcare “Environmental Assessment” report by 20%
• Tracked and produced 1,100 jobs per year; managed $4 million annual print budget
• Initiated a client-focused program to help business units project realistic annual production budgets
• Helped create a quality control system for all marketing materialsEach business unit was a silo that created and printed its own materials. No two logos looked the same, language was variable, and printing standards.

Here I learned the value of passion, professionalism, and enjoyment of work. I also spent a great deal of time on high-volume web presses and learned by fire the value of balance: client vs. agency vs. vendors vs. end-users.

In the world of production, paper was still the most overlooked and yet critical element. The choice of paper can ruin a job or make it beautiful. I also learned the value of salespeople—first that I’m not cut out for a commission sales position, second how difficult their jobs are, and third that without the sales function, no business stays in business.
