Greg Mackinlay
Process Strategist in Johannesburg, South Africa
Nearly 20 years of experience in the more technical side of printing/IT.
I create bespoke order processes and workflows, enabling our clients to place orders with us, quicker, more easily and with significantly less chance of human error than any of our competitors.
In addition I consult with our clients on how to maximize the economy in production of their printed collateral.
In the last 24 months I’ve helped over 250 clients resulting in excess of 38500 orders.
Cumulatively saving just under 42.5 years (8hrs/day, 5 days/week) worth of design/DTP time and costs.
