If you want to set up your printing business and want to avoid chances of failure you must make careful preparation before you embark on your business journey. The most important factor is you interests and readiness to succeed in printing, because at least in the initial stages you will have to work long hours that too without any motivation, in order to just survive the competition.
Good to have experience
It will help you immensely if you have some experience of working in the printing industry while you go about setting up your own business. Work with a printing set up for some time; talk with people who are already in the printing business about their successes and difficulties.
Choose if you want to start solo or a franchise
Before starting the business, you should make up your mind as to whether you would like to be in sole charge of the company or would prefer printing franchises. If you go solo you take all the risks and of course all the rewards if you succeed but going with a franchisor minimizes your risks but also your share in rewards plus you will also have to adhere to the policies of the parent company.
Determining business demand
In order to succeed solo you must carry out extensive market research well before launching a printing business. In addition to determining whether or not there is a customer base, you should also consider the location of your business. If you are with a franchisor, the parent company will already have done the required research and you will be given a location where you do not have to compete with other franchisee for the same clientele.
Financial planning makes all the difference
With the passage of time as with every industry the printing industry has also undergone a lot of changes in recent years, and has now become more technology oriented to stay competitive. This means that start up costs are high, and you must plan where the necessary finance will come from.
