Meet the Team

Mitch Kranitz created Print Partner in 2020, becoming the MSP Channel Manager for our parent company, Green Office Partner.
 
Before taking on this role, Mitch founded and sold two of his own MSPs. During this time, he clearly observed how much of a chore it can be for MSPs to coordinate with print vendors, which are too often unreliable partners. That’s why we’re so passionate about pushing against this notion.
 
When Mitch isn’t thinking about Print Partner, he’s likely hanging with his family, listening to a Lex Fridman podcast or working a puzzle!

Doug is the powerhouse behind Green Office Partner’s sales organization.

Doug brings 30 years of extensive sales and sales leadership experience to Green Office Partner. His diverse background spans sole proprietorships, small to mid-sized businesses, and large, fast-growing organizations on an acquisition trajectory.

Loyalty and commitment are the hallmarks of his career. Notably, Green Office Partner is only the sixth organization Doug has joined in his 30-year sales journey—one of which was his own small business.

Green Office Partner has ranked on the Inc. 5000 list for three consecutive years, as well as receiving the ENX Elite Dealer Award. Perhaps most impressive, We ranked as the #1 Best Place to Work in Chicago in 2023 and 2024.

Alec has been writing and managing content for Print Partner and Green Office Partner since 2022. In this last year, he’s built the Print Partner blog, the newsletters, social media posts, and various other campaigns.
 
When Alec isn’t writing about paper jams in a coffee shop, he’s probably playing board games, trying new recipes, or petting his cat, Romeo.

Karel is truly the “engine” that runs Print Partner. Every deal registered, every new partner that joins, Karel is the glue that keeps all the pieces together. We would all be lost without her meticulous attention to detail!
 
When Karel isn’t busy keeping Print Partner running smoothly, she is spending time with her family, watching TV and listening to music.
