* I research associations and businesses for niche publications, mailers, calendars or anything that currently have that would fit into the Sutherland Printing wheelhouse and benefit the customers needs.

* I make cold calls and send cold emails to viable prospects to see if I can persuade each contact to allow me to provide pricing on current printing needs.

* I take care of existing customers by supplying updated quotes for printing, postage, shipping. I deliver personal customer service to make sure projects get done and delivered within each customer's individual time frame.
