Minuteman Press

About Us

Minuteman Press is the largest and most prestigious printing franchise in the world and was one again rated the #1 Printing Franchise in the printing industry by Entrepreneur Magazine. Our first center opened in 1973 and was so successful that we began franchising just two short years later. We are a printing and graphics center that serves all businesses, from small town shops to large corporations.

Why Minuteman Press?

Every business needs printing on a daily basis no matter which way the economy turns. Minuteman Press has a unique position in the print and graphics industry fulfilling this need for businesses large and small. Our products are consumable and handed out, written on, mailed, and eventually thrown away. This creates a tremendous repeat factor from your customers.

Owning your own Minuteman Press franchise provides you with the following:

• A flexible business model giving you the opportunity to grow and expand
• Every business is a potential customer
• Monday through Friday with normal business hours
• Mass purchasing power
• Award-winning training program
• Royalty Incentive Program

Training and support

Most of our Minuteman Press franchisees have had no prior background in the printing and graphics industry. Our comprehensive two week training program will teach you everything you need to know. We will cover all aspects of running a Minuteman Press from marketing, management, and pricing using our proprietary business software.

Minuteman Press led the way in 1978 with the development of our innovative pricing software. We have since developed this into a comprehensive management tool running virtually every aspect of your business. It encompasses a customer information database with order history, workflow control, invoice and accounts receivable tracking, as well as sales reports and marketing initiatives.

Testimonials

"In 1993 I decided to make a career change. I was tired of the politics that had to be played in the corporate world. I had always wanted to own my own business. I went to a franchise show, met with the people from Minuteman Press, did my research and felt it would be a good choice for what I was looking for. What I was looking for was a business that would allow me to afford the quality of life I had in my previous career as well as a business that would allow me to send my two daughters to college. Now 17 years later both daughters have graduated from college with the oldest joining the company as part of the team and part of our exit strategy."

"Minuteman was there when we began holding our hands step by step. When we were able to walk on our own we did so still knowing they were only a phone call away with any advice or guidance we needed. It is nice to be able to pass on the business to our family and know Minuteman is still there to help the next generation continue the success we have achieved."

Minuteman Press International has created a "blueprint for success" which charts a course to growth and independence in these troubled economic times. It is a good feeling to know that you are in control of your own business; if you follow the Minuteman game plan you will be successful!"
