Meet Les Dorfam
Galaxy Balloons |
Q: Are there any new product features or functionalities that you're seeing a rise in demand for?
A: DTF (Direct to Film) is a game changer when it comes to printing on hard goods. Originally designed for the apparel industry, here at Galaxy, we saw it as a game changer to add 4 color process to items we were not able to digitally print due to the size of some of our products. We purchased at DTF machine and we use this process daily.
Q: What industry publications or resources do you find most valuable?
A: We have all of our products on ASI's ESP's platform and also on Sage's platform. Both of these account for a large part of our sales as distributors use both platforms extensively to find products for their customers.
Q: What's a hidden talent or hobby you have that most people at work wouldn't know about?
A: My biggest passion is my 6,000-gallon outdoor Koi Pond with waterfalls. I have been a KOI enthusiast for over 20 years and have 15 KOI that are between 12" to 36" in length. It brings a calming serenity to my backyard, and I spend a lot of time relaxing by the pond. |

Shedding light on this flawed doomsday messaging, Dr. Jen Gunter explains why you shouldn't lose sleep over sleep -- and what to do instead. |
