Invest in high-end large format digital printers
The market for large format digital printing is a very competitive one. It is full of aggressive prices, optimum print quality and quick turnarounds.

One provider, who was into silk screen printing business for so many years decided to shift to billboards. After careful planning, he went for a high speed, solvent-ink printer that is not only expensive but ensures production of even maximum size for billboards, as well as optimum speed rate. According to that provider, what you invest in equipment will definitely show in your output. And an output of less quality and brilliance will reflect how you manage your business.
Use connections and current roster of clients

Unlike those starting from zero, you can offer your new business to people and clients who already know you and kind of service you provide. Just as long as you have a good reputation, former clients will definitely go where you are.
