I began chatting with Vanessa and immediately she began brainstorming and coming up with ideas. Within minutes she had drafted several variations of the idea. After I selected my preference she went right to work and encouraged my input through the multiple stages of the process, ensuring it was exactly what I wanted. At no point was I left in the dark, Vanessa sent me progress pictures along the way. It was nice to see how things were coming along. I was very surprised, not just by how quickly it was done, but the extra degree of care that went into the piece. Vanessa overdelivered in every way, and I can't wait to make one special little girl the happiest for her big day. She is absolutely going to love her gift. I highly recommend Vanessa, go see what she can do for you!

BEST PRINTER EVER…read more Kind of an unconventional review for me for a Sunday morning, but hey, this is one local business that deserves some props. I needed to get cartons and labels printed for my new beauty business. Now keep in mind, I've done product development the beauty industry for over 15 years, so I've seen it all - cartons, labels, marketing materials, everything. I know quality when I see it. And I have some idea of what things should cost. I called around to about three different printers in the local area for quotes. The other printers were giving me outrageous costs (upwards of $11.00 / box - CRAZY!!). QPS owner Charles got back to me right away. We discuss what I needed... Now being a new business, my order quantities are pretty low. But Charles kept it real. He wasn't trying to gauge me and he even helped me with different ways that I could save on costs without sacrificing quality. When I went down to the facility, he gave me a tour of the place, printed me a digital sample, and showed me all the different types of boxes I can get down the line. It took me a few tries (and visits) to get the samples right, and Charles stayed with all the way. He turned around my order within a week, and BOOM. I got ROCKSTAR boxes and labels (which you'll see from my fabulous photos). At the end of the day, costs were totally reasonable and I couldn't be happier. Can't wait to sell out of my first run so I can go back :) Super high quality - just like the name.

Charles is fantastic, and a former Chicagoan!…read more I recently sent him a job to have printed - a 12 page instruction manual. My client recommended him, and she dealt with him directly on pricing and billing. Easy! I handled the technical aspects, and everything went smoothly. I'd sent the file to several other online digital printers and didn't even get an email acknowledgment, much less a quote. Charles called me on the phone soon after I sent the file to him - over a holiday weekend! Customer service, people, it matters! He had an online proof for me quickly, and my client was thrilled with the price, service and paper stock he suggested. He's in CA, yes, but that doesn't matter to me. I've got a few clients here in Chicago that I will recommend him to. The small cost for shipping is worth it when you find a printer that really KNOWS his stuff, and does the job RIGHT. Gold!

So I decided to join Len's San Mateo meetup group, and after attending several meetings, he graciously agreed to be my Editing/Publishing Coach.

I remember attending a concert and pining over a tee that cost $50 and a sticker that was $20.... like seriously wtf! I don't have a money tree growing in my backyard so I let the temptation go. Rob was able to make me the same products with exceptional quality for a lot less (I mean A LOT). I'm already making plans on my next Combat Graph-X piece.

I texted him, and he was very quick and responsive. I let him know that I wanted a custom Raiders shirt, and we talked about some ideas I had. He then took those ideas and created a very nice design! The whole process from start to finish only took a couple days, and I was able to pick the shirt up well before the game. I also wanted a cool Raiders decal for my car, and asked if he knew anyone. He let me know that he actually started off doing decals and still makes them, so I was able to get a sticker from him as well! I'm really happy there is finally a custom clothing/decal guy in Hayward. His prices are very reasonable, (way better than those mall vendors!) and the shirts and decal material he uses all seem like they are very good quality. Doesn't hurt that he is super responsive and very helpful as well! I cant wait to get more stickers and clothing from Rob! Highly recommend him to everyone!
