Feedback from our PCPI members:

“If you join only one professional association for print buying...this is the one! I highly recommend PCPI as the association that will help you advance your print knowledge, your network and your career.”
 
Marion S. (Buz) Price, VP, Production, Javelin Direct

“PCPI is the perfect fit for the print buyer. I've searched for years for a professional association that existed exclusively for print buyers, not just another graphic design or marketing targeted group. PCPI has empowered me to reinvent my role as a print buyer - I'm more confident & proactive, created better relationships with my printers, and have gained respect from my co-workers. PCPI is a must-have for any successful print buyer.”
 
Cynthia Todd-Flick, Production Coordinator, University at Buffalo

PCPI has provided a forum for me to fulfill my quest to keep up with the state of the industry and all its changes while understanding better what motivates the universe of print buyers. It is a great and needed organization.”
