New Advisement Service Helps Print Entrepreneurs Market and Grow Their Businesses
The CEO Track helps high-level print executives, owners and CEOs with business planning, family business dynamics, growth strategies, and succession planning. The CEO Track is led by Bill Woods, an attorney and 30-year print industry veteran.
“What I like is the fact that you aren’t dealing with some analyst who comes in and doesn’t know the industry. The people behind the CEO Track have been there, taking a small company and growing it through all the levels, and that’s why it’s valuable,” said Drew Townsend, vice president of Square One, a Mount Laurel, NJ-based marketing support services company specializing in data imaging, print on demand, offset printing, display graphics, and fulfillment.
Woods’ experience comes from building a nationally recognized marketing services organization, developing leadership development programs for a national industry association and service as both a volunteer and professional leader in the print industry. Through his private law practice, Woods helps print entrepreneurs with issues involving risk management, contracts, employment, negotiations, mergers and acquisitions and dispute resolution.
“Print entrepreneurs face additional challenges beyond the competitor across town. What business are we in? Should we diversify our services? How do we groom tomorrow’s leaders? How can we spend time planning when we have fires to put out? Through CEO Track, we can help focus on the issues that hold the company back, and push through them toward greater and sustainable profitability,” said Woods.
