Minuteman Press International names Nick Titus as president

Nick Titus has been named as the third-generation president of global design, marketing and printing franchise Minuteman Press International having been promoted from marketing vice-president of the business.

Bob Titus, who founded the business with his father Roy Titus in 1973, had served as president for 25 years but will continue as chief executive officer of the family-owned and operated franchise.

Minuteman Press International is headquartered in Long Island, New York and has nearly 1,000 independently owned and operated franchises around the world, including many in Australia.

“We have a tremendous company with incredible people who care about its success. Most importantly, the foundation and strength of our organisation relies on having dedicated franchise owners,” Nick Titus said.

“I believe that our company is strong and we are in a very good position for continued growth. Our three main goals are: to get our stores’ average to $750,000 per year in sales; to get our system-wide gross sales to over half a billion dollars; and to reach over 1,000 locations.

“We are pushing our support staff to conduct more individual meetings and evaluations to help ensure strong profitability and help make recommendations for continued growth.”

Growing up in the family business, Nick Titus started working at Minuteman Press International’s headquarters during holiday breaks in high school and college.

After graduating from university, he joined the Minuteman Press team full-time.

“I started out as a marketing rep, working directly with franchise owners and learning the inside of the business, then moved into our marketing department working on different ways to promote the business,” he said.

“Each year, I took on more and more responsibilities and became involved in different areas. I am very honored and humbled for this opportunity. I have some huge shoes to fill and I don’t take that lightly. I am very excited to continue with the core values we have instilled in our organisation and to have the opportunity to take our already great franchise to the next level.”

Bob Titus said after serving as president of Minuteman Press for 25 years, it was time for change.

“It is time for the third generation to take the helm. I am so proud and honored to promote my son as the third-generation president. Nick has grown up at Minuteman Press like a lot of us and our kids. He also grew up with his grandfather who taught him so much,” he said.

“In 1995, my father Roy Titus moved aside and named me president of the company. It was the coming of the second generation taking us through the next 25 years concentrating on our Minuteman Press franchise support system.

“In the last 25 years, we have added so many products and services that even Roy could not have imagined back in 1975.”
