As businesses began to emerge from lockdown - and a lengthy spell of inactivity - Media & You was invited to help a printworks in Cheshire that was inundated with requests. I was contacted by Beckie Thirsk, director of operations at EMJ Printing, with a flurry of small - but important - jobs to turn around. Among the tasks requested for printing at the facility in Ellesmere Port were business cards, menus for cafes, flyers for a gardening business and the opportunity to design a logo for a fledgling organisation. Plush is intended to be a subscription box, packed with beauty products and delivered to your door throughout the year on a regular basis. Beckie Thirsk is a busy lady. Not only does she have the role at EMJ Printing, she is also an executive director for BNI, the international networking group.
