Hear from Happy Customers

I have run a successful operation for over twelve years and was amazed at the ideas Roy brought forward to increase efficiency, service, and profitability.

Roy’s skills and insight have been a valuable part of each venue and a major component in the operational success in each program.

Roy has an insatiable appetite to learn, to discover and to put in to play proven systems after he fully understands the ins and outs of everything he is dealing with.

I have been in the screen printing and apparel industry for 35 years and in that time I have never come across an individual with the expertise and knowledge that Roy brings to the table.

Roy was brought in to help organize our system and help move us onto the ShopWorks production module. Not only did he accomplish that but he provided about 50 extra suggestions and tips that will save us time, money and make us run more efficient.

Roy is very detailed and most often has thought of things that might happen before they actually happen. These traits guarantee that programs and processes run smoothly.
