Daniels Print Communications and Springboard Enterprises Launch the Springboard Marketplace

    BOSTON, MA, October 21, 2014 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Designed for time-starved entrepreneurs, the Springboard Marketplace is where startups can find essential products and services to make their lives easier, including brand and marketing collateral, custom web-to-print solutions, and legal and insurance services.

"We are honored to support the important work Springboard is doing to help women-led companies succeed," said Grover Daniels, President of Daniels Print Communications. "Our online platform enables the members of the Springboard network to quickly and easily purchase quality print products, marketing collateral and exclusive design services online at competitive prices," continued Daniels.

"Our vision for the Springboard Marketplace is to help streamline the purchasing process and offer special packages, products and services from Springboard supporters, alumnae and trusted providers. In addition to the Daniels print products, the Springboard Marketplace will launch with Directors and Officers and Key Employee insurance packages from Aon, and Delaware incorporation/re-incorporation services from Mintz Levin," said Amy Millman, President of Springboard Enterprises. "We look forward to an ongoing collaboration with Daniels Print Communications to enrich the Springboard Marketplace with the vital products and services our exclusive network of peers require," continued Millman.

Springboard alumna and board member, Lauren Flanagan, served as an advisor to Daniels Print Communications. "I was in the first Springboard class of January 2000 and Grover Daniels was one of the early-adopter customers of my former company, which was a pioneer in securely storing and delivering brand assets online. When Amy Millman and I discussed the vision for the Springboard Marketplace, I reached out to Grover and found a good fit with the Daniels' platform. I love it that Grover's daughter, Lauren Daniels, who was a young girl when I first met her, is now leading the project. This is a typical example of the Springboard network effect," said Flanagan.

"We are thrilled to offer our Marketplace platform to the Springboard community, and to the most successful venture-catalyst in the US," said Lauren Daniels, Vice President at Daniels Print Communications. "The Marketplace is a key benefit for member organizations to provide special offers and exclusive services to their communities, and helps in their efforts for sustainability," continued Daniels.
