More about PMS books

In my last post I started discussing PMS and PMS Color Charts and I thought it would be worthwhile to spend some more time on that subject.

Anybody that has had anything to do with choosing color has most likely had someone whip out this big book of colors and told to pick a color. That big book is typically some form of Pantone Book.

The basic use of a Pantone® Formula Guide (Pantone/PMS Book) is to “provide an accurate method for the selection, specification, communication, reproduction, matching and control of the PANTONE MATCHING SYSTEM® Colors.” I.e. it lets us all talk color without using vague phrases like “it sky blue” The concept is if I use a PMS color (say PMS 3005) then everyone can pull out their guide book and know exactly what color the sky is in my world J!

There are a lot of different PMS book and I will discuss that in my next blog.

They created an on-demand ordering system and produced generic and customizable in-store marketing materials for thousands of restaurants who participated in the program. Calagaz Printing exceeded our expectations on the level of customer service our company and customers received. They provided tremendous value to the program. We look forward to continue working with them in the future.”

“Fast. Friendly. Economical. Three words to sum up Calagaz Printing! They are so easy to work with and they go the extra mile to get my jobs done quickly, efficiently and at the best cost. They are truly the best choice.”

As our relationship grew, (Calagaz) took on more of our marketing campaigns, local store marketing collateral, in-store signage and even our very detailed, complex menus. Each time, they came to the table with innovative suggestions and competitive pricing. When we had difficult deadlines or expedited requests, Calagaz Printing would meet them or give us a more realistic goal. We truly appreciated the care and consideration that they provided to Mellow Mushroom!

The quality of the product that they produce along with the suggestions on how something might work better a different way are outstanding. They work alongside us as partners trying to accomplish the same goals. We feel that this professional service with the combination of treating us like more than a customer is one of their great attributes as a company.

What's best about the way Calagaz does business is their personable approach. I work with an account executive that's thinking ahead of my needs, with a customer service manager that's friendly and always ready to tackle a challenge, with an owner whose hands on in day-to-day operations, and I have a personal relationship with nearly every employee on the production floor. At Calagaz, they know me by name, and they treat me like family.

Working with a franchise business model can be complicated because it requires the customization of various assets. Calagaz Printing has gone above and beyond their scope of work in developing an online portal for our brand. This portal houses all of our marketing collateral, promotional materials and uniforms to ensure that our franchisees have everything they could ever need in a one-stop-shop format to run their restaurants successfully. They know what it means to form a true partnership with their clients and excel in treating your brand like you are their only client.

For the last 10+ years I have been fortunate enough to work with Calagaz in partnering with our restaurant group for producing menus, signage and all collateral we use within our business model. Calagaz is the most caring, efficient, and honest company that any partner would be thrilled to be in business with. Over the course of our relationship, they have met all deadlines, and go above and beyond to make sure our business needs are met. Their flexibility with our ever changing business in the hospitality industry, helps keep us moving forward while never letting us know the challenges they may have had with our last minute requests.
