Print Design Podcast - How to Win with Print in a Digital World

Dave Hopkins

Booking Overview

An interview-led design and business show focused on print design, packaging, materials, production techniques, and building creative practices, with recurring guests who are print designers, studio founders, publishing professionals, and design-industry leaders. Agencies could credibly pitch experienced graphic and packaging designers, print-production specialists, creative studio founders, and executives with notable physical campaigns, publications, or print businesses; booking difficulty is likely low because guests are specialized practitioners rather than mainstream celebrities.
