Lance M. Martin - Principal

Lance started his printing career in 1984 at the then world’s largest printer, RR Donnelley and Sons, as a plant engineer, where he experienced Rotogravure, Offset, Bindery, Raw Materials and Material Handling.  This foundation set the stage for a 27 year career in the industry; the bulk of those years spent selling Goss, Baker Perkins and Hantscho printing presses.  His experience was broadened after moving on to sell binding systems, manage a press installation company, and provide business consulting services through his own company; all putting him in front of hundreds of printing facility owners ranging from the largest to the small, coast-to-coast.  Tapped to be Director of Sales at Western Printing Machinery Company, then the largest die cutting, inline finishing systems supplier provided the added finishing and converting customer base to his background.  As an engineer, Lance brings a unique technical insight to the value of our customer’s products and is able to communicate those values and benefits to any audience.
