Colin Sinclair Mcdermott · The Online Print Coach · The Print Show 2025
Wayne from INKISH is at The Print Show at the NEC in Birmingham, catching up with his good friend Colin Sinclair McDermott — better known as The Print Coach and founder of Print Mastermind. Colin shares that the first day of the show has been buzzing, with a steady flow of visitors and a renewed energy thanks to the addition of The Sign Show and the central Hall 3 location.
With decades of experience in the print industry, Colin built and ran his own print company before moving into business coaching over five years ago. Noticing a lack of dedicated coaching for the print sector, he created Print Mastermind — an online training and community platform designed specifically for print and packaging businesses. The platform helps companies improve in every area — from sales and marketing to systems, processes, and finance — through weekly mastermind sessions, structured content, and shared best practices.
Colin emphasizes that the Print Mastermind community is selective and focused on creating a safe, collaborative environment where members can share challenges, ideas, and strategies. Businesses interested in joining can reach out directly via LinkedIn, his website, or by phone to discuss fit and goals.
Wayne highlights Colin’s impressive podcast and webinar content, which continues to help print businesses raise their game and accelerate growth. Looking ahead, Colin is preparing to head to Orlando for PRINTING United, where he’ll take on a major role as part of the new Allstars Ambassador Program — serving as team captain alongside other industry leaders. He’ll also be speaking at various events, participating in “Spill the Ink” sessions, Student Day activities, and hosting live podcast recordings throughout the show.
From Long Beach to Birmingham and next to Orlando, Colin’s journey reflects his commitment to empowering the global print community. A lively conversation about education, leadership, and collaboration in print — filmed live at The Print Show.
