OK, Plastic Printers blog followers, I’ve got a dilemma. Before I tell you about it, I have to admit to one thing: I’m a die-hard, old-school chick. What does that mean? For the purposes of this weekly template installment, it means I buy a piece of equipment and use it till it fries.
You won’t catch me replacing my smartphone every 6 months or investing in new tech-gadgetry before the manufacturers have worked out all the bugs. I want to study, research, test, and tweak. I will do whatever it takes to make sure a piece of equipment is worth investing in before I spend my hard-earned cash on it.

What was my first clue? About a third of the way through last week’s episode of Game of Thrones, King’s Landing went from old-world, fantasy sepia to magenta! This amused and frustrated writer gave credit where credit is due. It’s time to get a new TV.
I researched a few possibilities, set a budget, and headed off to a local store. I walked in and as I headed to the TV section, I found myself completely overwhelmed. The models I had carefully researched and selected were out of stock. What was my next move? I’ll give you a hint: it’s the subject or rather; the object of this week’s free template download.
If you guessed that I looked for an employee; you’re right. Here’s the follow-up question: how did I know when I found the person I was looking for? Right again; I looked for someone wearing a store-themed I.D. badge. My mission partially accomplished; we headed back to the TV section to review my available options.
Think about that for a moment, and ask yourself how many times you’ve done the exact same thing. When you enter uncharted retail territory, you automatically start looking for basic ID badges. This deceptively simple visual aid:
