How to make a seal?

The printing process does not take much time and consists of only three simple steps:

1.Choosing a layout. You select the ready-made print layout you need from the database provided by the management company.

2. Making the base of the seal - a cliche, thanks to which the desired design remains at the place where the seal is placed. The cliche is baked in an exposure chamber, which is provided to the partner by the management company and the cost of which is already included in the lump sum fee. The baking process takes only 10 minutes.

3.Gluing the cliches to the seal. At this point the order is ready.

Reviews from existing franchisees

Konstantin from Chelyabinsk:

“Just a year ago I purchased the Argus Printing franchise and was already thinking about expanding. Business with Argus turned out to be so successful that I am going to create a network of stamp making salons in Chelyabinsk under my management. This is surprising, because just a year ago I was an employee and lived from paycheck to paycheck.”

Profitable business in the production of stamps, operational printing and repair and refilling of cartridges

My name is Alexander Ragulin and I am a serial entrepreneur. I would like to tell you a story about me. When you read it, you will understand that anyone is capable of creating their own successful business.

Now I’m 26 years old, whether it surprises you or not, I started earning my first money at the age of 13. I am the most ordinary guy who was born in Stavropol (Stavropol Territory) into a not rich family. I lived with my parents and five younger brothers in a two-room apartment, we didn’t go hungry, but my parents made it clear at an early age that I needed to earn money for movie tickets and ice cream on my own. Therefore, even as a child, I began my journey working as a helper on construction sites or unloading trucks. Then, at the age of 18, I went to St. Petersburg to study and at the same time opened my first business selling building materials. The biggest motivation for me then was the desire to live better - to buy my own apartment and have a car. That’s when I met my current business partner Sergei Klimenko, with whom we founded “Holding5 Company” only 5 years after we met.

But before that, we had already implemented 10 successful business projects:

1. Sale of building materials
2. Phone and office equipment repair
3. Provision of construction services
4. Production of furniture from solid wood and frameless systems
5. Printing activities
6. Production of blinds and sun protection systems
7. Stamp production
8. Website development
9. Refilling cartridges
10. Esports bookmaker

In the end, we chose 3 areas, which, in our opinion, turned out to be the most profitable and with the greatest demand in the market. Now we work in more than 103 cities in Russia and the CIS and provide several areas of services:

• — Production of printed products
• -Production of seals, stamps and digital signatures
• -Refilling cartridges and repairing office equipment

And now I offer you assistance in starting your own business in the above b2b areas for the following reasons:

1. There is no seasonality in these businesses - without our services, organizations simply will not be able to fully operate;
2. Opportunity to earn up to 1,500,000 per month;
3. The huge market volume in these areas is more than 1.3 billion rubles (according to statistics from the wordstat service, requests for refilling cartridges, making stamps, digital signatures and printing production amounted to more than 1,937,464 requests over the last month in Russia and the CIS).
4. You can start without renting an office, start from home
5. These businesses are easily scalable - in just a year you can have 10 locations around the city (real practice of our franchisees)
6. Direct production - while everyone is “reselling” something, we and our equipment are direct manufacturers
7. A quick opportunity to learn how to earn money, gain geographic freedom and start traveling.

And now I am ready to share my experience and literally guide you by the hand from purchase to full payback, and I guarantee constant support for the entire duration of our cooperation, and I am also ready to return all the money back if you do not start earning money by following our instructions.

How much will I earn

The franchisor provides three options for calculating profit for cities with a population of 350,000 to 650,000 people: pessimistic, basic and optimistic. At the same time, fixed costs are the same in all cases: advertising, communications and labor tax. Variable costs include the cost price and the simplified tax system; these figures depend on the number of orders and will be different in each case.

A pessimistic calculation is made based on a minimum order quantity. On average, this is 4 orders per day. In this case, the net profit with a five-day working week will be approximately 46 thousand rubles per month.

In the base scenario, the forecasts are already better. If you receive an average of six orders a day with an average bill of 1,816 rubles, then your profit will be 86,000 rubles.

And if you receive 13 orders or more per day, then this is already an optimistic scenario, the profit in which can amount to 184,000 rubles per month.

These scenarios are based on the real-life experiences of existing franchisees. At the initial stage of negotiations with the company “Guild: EDS • Seals • Stamps”, you can receive an individual calculation of the payback of a future franchise point in your city.

Printing shop equipment: where to start

The costly stage is the acquisition of equipment. In the beginning, you should not buy in large quantities. It is better to stay with basic used devices.

• Computer – RUB 33,599. Pay attention to the characteristics. You will need it to work with graphic images.
• A3 scanner – 40,900 rubles (in Moscow). It’s better to immediately take it for large formats.
• Color laser printer – 53,100 rubles.
• A3 copy machine – 50 thousand rubles. Or a risograph (duplicator) - from 30 thousand.
• In total, at least 200 thousand rubles will be required for the purchase of equipment.

To operate you need to purchase materials:

• Master film for risograph – from 2,000 to 5,000 rubles.
• Replacement photodrum for a copy machine and printer - up to 2 thousand for one.
• The required amount of paper in A4 formats is 205 per pack, A3 – 450 rubles per pack.

Graphics programs

In the printing business plan, highlight the place of the designer’s tools. To work with images and photographs, 2-3 programs are usually enough.

These include: Adobe Photoshop, Adobe Illustrator and Adobe Indesign (for working with text and publishing publications).

The cost of one electronic license for a month is 1280 rubles.

Together with them, designers use CorelDRAW. The cost of the license is 39,383 rubles.

Work team

First, be sure to find a great printer. He will tell you which equipment is preferable to use, will monitor the process and share his experience with colleagues. Or learn the whole process yourself. Don't be afraid and go on a tour of a large printing house.

A mini-office will need a skilled designer and a competent manager who will place orders and look for clients.

Maintain a favorable microclimate in your team. This plays a big role. So that everyone, as one team, is interested in the result. Collaboration, training, leisure time and company philosophy were harmonious.

Printing house franchise

It is not often that a printing business develops through a franchise. More remains a matter for private individuals. The market is increasingly being covered by small firms specializing in covering the consumer needs of their part of the city.

The second reason is the takeover of printing services by advertising agencies. They provide volume customers and networks with an expanded range of services. But constant demand is gaining momentum. Potential clients are often willing to order large quantities.

A franchise for a printing house is assistance in resolving issues of entering a common platform for similar enterprises. However, there is very little guidance in the industry. The disadvantages are frightening: the small selection of offers, the lack of guarantees for the prosperity of the business in another region. It is required to further analyze demand, necessity, and consumer ability.

Not everyone can buy a franchise. The company must ensure that there is no threat to its reputation and brand. A step-by-step business plan consisting of sections convinces of the seriousness of intentions:

• introduction;
• personal information;
• description of the current market;
• selection of premises;
• management team;
• marketing plan;
• list of partners;
• financial plan.

There may be gaps when purchasing a franchise; there is no such concept in the law. Transactions will be carried out under a commercial concession agreement. It is advisable to obtain legal advice. Particular attention is paid to the rights and obligations of the parties, the duration of the agreement, and the geography of legal force.

The holding provides one or a team of specialists to assist the entrepreneur. This may not happen, then you should know the action plan and procedures:

1. A license, brand material, technology, methodology, and instructions are provided.
2. A lease agreement is concluded, documents for conducting activities are drawn up.
3. An office design project and production plan are being developed.
4. An agreement is concluded for the supply of equipment and installation work.
5. Selection and training of personnel.
6. Contracts for the supply of raw materials and goods.
7. An opening follows.
8. Advertising company, attracting consumers.

When you open your own printing house with the help of a contract, you can quickly enter the market and make a profit. Entrepreneurship always requires effort, funding, and detail.
