Someone once said, “Don’t wait for opportunity, create it.” When Scott walker, owner of VinylWorks, arrived in Wheat Ridge he immediately saw the city’s potential.
Talented from a young age, as a reward for good grades in high school his parents bought him his first screen printer. After finishing a marketing degree at college, he secured a job with Miller (before it was MillerCoors) where he found himself managing over 25 employees who were installation technicians. Fast forward eight years and one company merger later where he found himself laid off. That’s when Scott decided to buy his first vinyl cutting machine.
His idea was to sell businesses vinyl cutouts of their addresses if they didn’t already have it posted. Starting by working out of his basement, he ultimately didn’t feel successful until his second year, but he loved every minute of the job. People may say that owning a business comes with risks, but what they don’t tell you about is the learning curve, and how it affects your business individually from others. Once in the flow of things and as business grew, he expanded by getting his own shop, getting more machines, and eventually had a large enough clientele base that required hiring a few employees.
VinylWorks has a wide array of services, but that’s not the only draw for clients. Mickey Blackwell, Scott’s right hand man is a very gifted graphic designer and adds an incredible amount of value to their products. While only some businesses might be able to afford design firms separate from the printing process, others can be left with limited choices when printing companies don’t have a designer. VinylWorks is the ideal choice and closet thing to a boutique signage store in Wheat Ridge.
Scott’s business has been going well, and ultimately he would like to expand to additional markets. To date they’ve worked with big name clients such as Google, Visa, UPS, and Yamaha. If you decide to work with the team at VinylWorks, you’ll experience their amazing abilities first hand. When 5 people can consistently put out amazing products, the friendly service and approachability is just the cherry on top.
