Here at Hemingway Communications we couldn't agree more. When you get right down to it, at our core is the traditional nuts-and-bolts commercial printer you always wanted.
From prepress to press to bindery, we know that getting our hands dirty is how we keep your brand clean and looking great. And profitable! Our goal is to increase your ROI. It ends with a stellar printed piece. It begins, first and foremost, by providing you with trade printing prices. We're not looking to get rich. We're looking to keep your bottom line happy and your brand healthy with industry-leading printing at industry-leading prices. So please, whatever you do, don't let the Communications in Hemingway fool you.
If content is the key to communications that makes your brand work, is creativity really king? If your talented writers and designers are burdened by a heavy workload and they need help, our talented writers and designers will focus on creating great content by meshing text, design and the audience profile with your overall objectives.
It's nice to know you have a partner you can count on. As a value-added service (yep, "the freebee"), our on-staff writers and editors carefully review all projects for accuracy during the prepress stage, regardless who produced the content. We do this because we're the first to acknowledge that to err really is human. We also know how costly and frustrating it can be to put your brand in print only to find embarrassing little grammatical "glitches" after it's too late. With this level of oversight we minimize the risk of oversights appearing in our clients' work.
We've been told that working with Hemingway is different — in a good way. Our organization is an amalgam of knowledge, honesty and dedication. We are serious about business yet we never take ourselves too seriously. Here's what you can expect when working with us:
Account leadership Our experienced Project Managers are consummate leaders who are knowledgeable, creative and subject matter experts. Their official title may not be "Account Manager," yet they are accountable to you during all facets of your projects. They consider themselves advocates of your business as much as ours when working with you.
Relationship building. Your Project Manager is with you for the long haul. He devotes the time needed to fully understand the challenges faced by your business.
Project execution. We are proficient at project management. This allows us to manage schedules and demands without sacrificing quality.
Flexibility. Projects, like people, evolve while "in process." Last minute changes are the norm rather than the exception. We are fast on our feet and adapt quickly to keep your projects on schedule.
Guarantee. Our work is guaranteed. If you are not 100% satisfied with our work, you will receive a full refund..
Because print collateral is paramount to the success of our clients' businesses, we continuously monitor advances in print technologies and methodologies and as a result upgrade our equipment and improve our processes often. This ensures our end-product print quality is among the industry's best.
The majority of all print collateral is produced using conventional offset and digital processes. Collateral can be manufactured in any imaginable size, shape and colour. Some of the more common print collateral we produce for our clients include:
In business everything fails without the support of great print collateral. From simple business cards, to four-colour brochures, to annual reports, to complex full-colour books, we bring your business to life with the industry's highest achievable standard of print excellence. We put the Communications in Hemingway because we view each print project as an opportunity to effectively communicate a client's brand.
Our greatest asset is our people. They are exceptionally bright professionals dedicated to improving our clients' businesses. We foster a corporate culture that rewards ingenuity, creativity and good old-fashioned hard work when solving problems. We have never met a problem we didn't like and no project is too small for our industry-savvy experts eager to engage our clients in frank discussions on how best to achieve the desired results.
Do clients really care about printing presses, their makes, their models, and the processes that drive them? We don't think so, but it's nice to know your print partner has ample capacity to get results, without all the industry-specific mumbo jumbo and tech talk. Simply put, our 22,000 square foot manufacturing plant in Mississauga, Ontario, combined with our centrally located sales office in downtown Toronto, equip us under two roofs to handle any project, big or small.
Your objectives are our focus. We take pride in our work and are driven by your success. What motivates us is keeping you within budget, keeping your projects on schedule, and delivering them to you on time.
The best businesses forge lasting relationships with their customers. We are all about helping our clients build long and lasting relationships through effective communications with their customers. We are also about building long and lasting relationships with our clients.
Simple business cards? A complex eight-page newsletter, including precisely written and effectively targeted content? A unique specialty item from concept, to prototype, to full production? If it's produced in paper, vinyl or plastic, communicates your brand, and you can imagine it, then we can manufacture it. That's the Hemingway Communications difference.
