Daniel Schmidt

General Manager Card Bureau

Daniel is an integral part of the team at IDentiTech ensuring all aspects of the card printing bureau and mail house operate efficiently.

Daniel has a solid understanding of card printing and the production process from working in a card bureau environment for over 10 years. Daniel is responsible for assisting clients, small and large with their card printing programs.

“I work closely with our clients to ensure that the card printing solution implementation process is as pain free as possible. I understand that for many of our clients, card printing is completely foreign to them, so we offer on-site installation for printers where possible. To our interstate clients, we offer installation support via remote access to ensure that the printer is installed correctly, and that staff are trained to use it. For organisations that choose to outsource their card printing to the IDentiTech bureau, we ensure that their online database is set to the specific requirements of each customer, so they can order their ID cards quickly and easily.

We understand that there is no one size fits all when it comes to card printing solutions. We work closely with our clients and recommend a solution that suits the requirements of their business specifically.”

So if your business requires photo ID for staff, membership cards for your members or gift cards for your store, speak to Daniel.

Having worked on the client side has provided Melinda with Insight as to what her clients are looking for. “Having once worked in a role that required me to manage the purchase of promotional merchandise and uniforms, I really appreciated a supplier that listened and understood my requirements and ultimately provided me with merchandise options that were fit for purpose, good quality and within my budget. Now that I am a supplier, I really understand how important it is to understand my client’s business and what they are trying to achieve. I understand that great customer service is everything.

In addition to building great relationships with our customer’s, we have built great relationships with a number of Suppliers that will always help us to do the impossible. I think a good promotional merchandise Distributor is only as good as the Suppliers that they use. Using reputable Suppliers that we have dealt with for years allows us to ensure we are always providing a quality product and can deliver on the promises we make.”
