Zzippes..Say It.. It's Fun! Not Only that, They Save the Environment!

This is my short little shout out to my favorite printing company...Zzippes!

Working as a real estate virtual assistant, one of my favorite aspects of my services is creating property flyers, Luxury brochures, postcards you name it. Because I do this virtually my clients have the option of using printers of their choice, whether they are local businesses, or companies like ExpressCopy, Quantum Mail or Vista Print, etc. I can email print ready professional pieces that can easily be delivered or picked up in almost any part of the country.

Ok, so printers are not really big news I know, but I think this particular printer is special and couldn't help but give them a shout out...because Zzippes is a green printing company! They have green friendly techniques that include: environmentally friendly toner for printing, bio-degradable shrink wrap that is a vegetable bi-product, and of course consumer recycled paper. They are located in Pleasanton California, which as a city, recycles all of its garbage.

When you have a choice, one being more environmentally friendly the other..its a no-brainer. So, there you have it, my little shout-out to Zzippes....Say it, its fun!!

Laura,

Although I am not in the enviro crowd this does sound good (and Cheap). My question is when the client opens the email is it your flyer or do they need to open an attachment? If it is an attachment what program opens it, Adobe? Thanks,

Bob

Ritu~ Great, definitely check them out! Eric (the owner) is great!

Bob~ I send all my pieces in a PDF file (Adobe Reader will open it) once it is print ready. It is an attachment in the PDF form, but I also send it in jpeg form for emailing as well, which can avoid an attachment if sent in an HTML email:) That way the photos and graphics are the highest quality.
