Description

The Copy Shop was just a twinkle in the eyes of Jim and Kay Rickard back in 1980. At that time Jim was a top producing salesman for Xerox and Kay was trying to get back into the work force after she had fulfilled her motherhood obligations and done some substitute teaching on the side. As they pondered their future together, it became apparent Xerox and teaching were not the golden keys to their golden years. What to do? Like many others, they caught the entreprenurial bug, but what enterprise they wondered?In 1980 Traverse City had several printing shops but not an exclusive copy shop. With Jim's wealth of experience with copiers and no copy shop, that twinkle became an idea, and the idea became a dream, and the dream became a reality in June of 1982 when The Copy Shop became Traverse City's original copy shop.The Copy Shop opened with two copiers, a typewriter, Kay and one staff member. Sixteen years later The Copy Shop operates two locations with 12 staff members, 7 black and white copiers, 4 color copiers (two fully connected to Mac work stations), a large format ink jet printer, 3 desktop publishing work stations, scanners, 2 self-serve computers(one IBM and one Mac) and a very long list of binding and finishing equipment.
