event

After attending the event, I learnt a lot from Shiloh Armstrong’s business. In the event, Armstrong talked about his business whereby he deals with printers and graphic. He said that the business has experienced steady growth since it begun. The major activities within the business are graphic, web design and print business. Armstrong said he owned the business together with his wife. He added that a student from Idaho State University started it in 2007. At the beginning of the business, Armstrong and his wife started with minor printing and web design as he said. They outsourced everything apart from their web designing. Armstrong said that over the past five years, his business has developed to great lengths and still offers high-quality services. They named the company BengalWorks, and it was working out of two dissimilar locations until last October. They later moved the business into the former Ashley Furniture store at 470 W. Oak St. near the Westwood Mall.

The new location, as Armstrong described it, is more visible as well as accessible, and it is also bigger than the former location as this offered them with a space of enlarging the company. Armstrong said that approximately 60% of their business came from the Southeast Idaho. For the past five years, Armstrong together with his wife has taken many courses as well as classes within their industry for the significance of learning how they can expand the services offered by the business. Armstrong said that the strategy of the company was to become a ‘one-step-shop for all things marketing’. Before concluding the event, one of the attendees asked Armstrong what he cares when he wants to hire someone to work with the business’ printing office. Armstrong answered to this guy by saying that one of the most significant things he cares from a new employee is the GPA. Explained about it and said that GPA is important to him because it shows that the applicant did a great work and can complete tasks on time.
