Simon Printing Is True Calling
"Maintaining family ownership is paramount to all of it," Simon remarks. "In a business environment, when the company is five generations old, there's a great source of pride in the accomplishments of my forefathers and a great deal of responsibility to carry that forward."
To that end, Simon has used the principles passed down from his father. "It's not any one thing, but the 10,000 little things that make a difference," he says. "Things like acknowledging employees in the hallways, being genuinely concerned about customer problems and keeping up to date on technology. You try to do each of those right, and do them with honesty and integrity. In doing that you're not guaranteed of anything, but you greatly increase your odds of being successful."
