How a betrayal became a brand.
"It all started sometime in 2008. The recession was just kicking off and the economy was becoming a major challenge to us. We had been helping out a print broker that was having medical issues. He was going through chemo, a rigorous treatment, and couldn't handle his workflow any longer. We brought him aboard and made him a Valley Press employee while he was addressing his medical issues."
"I had spent two years treating his clients as if they were my own, running around town doing deliveries, picking up artwork. Putting aside the needs of Valley Press to build his clientele up."
"In 2008, the person whom I'd been helping survive his cancer decided to start his print broker company up again, and in doing so he and two other Valley Press employees cleaned us out by taking files, artwork and everything else needed to start up his company again."
A 12-inch vinyl record, melted into a bowl, the round Valley Press logo placed on top of the label, filled with marketing materials and small gifts.
Given out 200+ per week to potential clients ever since 2008. Recycled vinyl, free to anyone who calls or emails.
