n today’s episode of Pressing Matters, Jeremy dives into the real talk about what it takes to keep the wheels turning this time of year. Business isn’t always booming, and that’s exactly when the hustle really matters.💬 “The only way to do great work is to love what you do.” – Steve Jobs.Jeremy unpacks this quote and how, when things get tough, most reasonable people quit… but not entrepreneurs with passion in their veins.🔥 He talks about the decision to hit pause and take a vacation—not to escape, but to reset. Because even in the grind, it’s okay to take a breath and come back sharper.☎️ Shoutout to Sales Ink on LinkedIn for their post on cold calling. Yeah, it sucks… but it works. Sometimes you gotta do the uncomfortable things to get results.🖨️ Jeremy also highlights two recent features we're proud of:* Our Graphics Pro article on how to print the perfect event shirt* Our ImagesMagUK breakdown of the Anatomy of the Masking Tape Print EffectBoth are packed with knowledge for decorators looking to level up!💡 Pro tip: at Rock Hill Screen Printing, we’ve been giving away free custom decals with customer logos—and it’s making a serious impact.
