    Print Industry Consolidation: Change You Can’t Avoid

    Join us for the latest Profit Matters webinar – PIA MidAmerica’s effort to address all issues regarding profitability in the print industry.

    The industry is changing rapidly, most notably the large number of mature owners that have decided it is time to exit the business and the impact it will have on the industry. However, how to value and sell the business continues to baffle so many. Attend this session to understand how to make the right decisions when selling or buying a print company.

    In this session you will learn:

    • Current M&A trends in the print industry
    • Why this trend will continue to increase not only into 2019, but the next decade
    • How to know when it is time to sell the business
    • Print business valuation, and
    • Much, much more
