Too many slips 'twixt tie-up and the lift
Article Abstract:
Jackson Press, an instant printer with a large turnover, was too eager to grow and, even after its merger with Pink Panther in February 1997 to create Current Knowledge Print Group, the company was flat financially at $28 million turnover. Founder Michael Jackson made the mistake of concentrating on large clients (80% of revenue) and letting go of smaller ones. Jackson lost $1 million in revenue in one year. In July 1998, Current Knowledge's investment in technology started to pay off. Current's turnover was $32 million in June 1999.
