5 Reasons to NOT Get a Corporate-level PressShop

We spend a lot of time here at Print Ship Now and PrintFX telling you why you should buy a corporate-level PressShop; to enhance your abilities as an online designer, keep corporate compliance, save time, etcetera etcetera. What we have not spent a lot of time telling you is why you shouldn’t own a corporate PressShop™, but in this age of fairness and mediation it is only fitting that we try it out.

First of all, so you know we are being completely honest, here is a picture that will, without a doubt, convince you:

This thing is baby, seal, and twinky all rolled into one. How could we be lying if we show you this?

Now, would we show you a picture of an adorable, upside-down baby seal if we were in any way deviating from the truth? I think not. With that honesty-proving technique out of the way, we can present the top 5 reasons to NOT own a corporate PressShop:

1. Using a Corporate PressShop, gives you a sizeable chance of being rewarded at work with a raise or promotion (these are often the results of smart business decisions. These might seem great at first, but remember promotions lead to more important decision-making, which can lead to extreme pressure. It may be best to avoid the whole “reward” process by steering clear of a Corporate level PressShop entirely.
2. A sunburn from too much time on the golf course is no joke. It really hurts and can make the pats on the back you might receive from using a Corporate PressShop quite painful. No PressShop = no time saved in the design process = no time for getting sunburned playing golf on a dangerously sunny, cloud-free day.
3. Not using a Corporate level PressShop keeps you from saving money avoiding many of the hassles and extra steps involved in the corporate design process. What would you do with that extra budget money anyway? More research? Better marketing? Wider reach? Please.
4. Using a Corporate PressShop is simple and effective…perhaps too simple. Everyone needs a little trial and tribulation, am I right? After all, as successful businessman Bo Bennet once said, “Frustration, although quite painful at times, is a very positive and essential part of success.” Get the frustration you deserve by avoiding our PressShop system.
5. A huge part of the “benefit” of using our Corporate PressShops is corporate compliance, or the ability to keep a corporate logo the same in every way that it is used and across all franchises. In other words, it makes it simple to keep corporate colors, logos and brands uniform, no matter what. Why should that be allowed, when every franchise and user could alter the corporate logo just a little bit? Thank about it. Don’t you want your brand identity changing depending on who is using it (in the name of rampant individuality?) If you do, don’t go the route of a Corporate PressShop. No way.

With these five reasons, we have struck a balance. Sure, there are lots of reasons why one might want to use a Corporate-level PressShop, but now we’ve given you some reasons why one might NOT want to use it! Your best move now is to carefully weigh your options and decide to either go for it or avoid it.
