£2k target reached

A big THANK YOU to all our clients and friends who donated sponsor money to our chosen charity - DSUK. Disabilities Snowsports UK is a charity who are dedicated to helping disabled people from the UK to experience Snowsports such as skiing and snowboarding.

This year Jonny once again joined Nina, Greg, Joanne, Andrew and Joe and we skied our way as Team IncREDible at Manchesters Chill Factore indoor ski slope.
As a team we raised just over £2000 on the day by skiing 350 runs dressed in matching "IncREDibles" outfits. 

During the day we were joined by Paralympic Team Coach Euan and Jack (as appropriately called JakJac!) one of the UKs future Parolympians set for the 2018 Winter Games - watch out for that name!!

We will be looking to help DSUK in the future and are thinking of ways to help them raise money, something that is becoming more and more challenging as demand for charitable donations rises.

To find out how we can help you to raise your profile please call us for an informal chat on 01332 291141 and we will show you what we can do for you.

I am ten

Ok, so if life begins at 40 then that makes me a mere ten years old...

So to celebrate this milestone the team made me this superb card...featuring Mel Champain - a superstar in the making (we think!) and current star of the Southern Comfort ads.

It's also the 50th anniversary of Dr Who so I am in good company!

Julia's cakes

We were lucky enough to be given some delicious cup cakes made by Ben's wife Julia.

What a tasty treat  - thanks for this, we really enjoyed them - now just need to work it off..!

I am the Beat...

Anyone who can remember the riff that goes with with this lyric will most likely be a teen of the 80's - Once you start thinking about it you just cannot stop it going on in your mind!

Well, this Beat is for Nottinghamshire Police and Crime Commissioner and its actually an on-line newsletter. We create this for our client Better Times who write and manage the project.

The Beat is designed to provide news and features aimed at Nottinghmashires' wide ranging communities.

If your business has something to say, then a newsletter is a great way to say it. Especially if its well designed and easy to read.

Let us help you with your news, call us now on 01332 291141 and we can discuss the benefits of regular communication with your clients and prospects.

A sign of the Times

Some of you may know that we have been producing advertising for clients since 1987  - there is more demand now than ever before to make your product or service stand out from the crowd and advertising can be an effective way to achieve this.

Karlson are one of our favorite clients and they have recently focused their business on managed print services. To help promote this we produced this little advert which published in the Times. It is important to keep 'on message' when writing advertising copy - and even more so when space is limited.

This advert compliments Karlson's sponsorship of the MPS awards and has so far been well received by readers.

Why not give us a call on 01332 291141 to see how advertising can help your business grow...

Christmas in May?

It may seem odd to some people that we even mention Christmas in the middle of the year, but it is the time to start thinking about your Christmas collateral and marketing! I know, I know, we have not even had a proper Summer yet!  But if you have a product, service or venue then you really should be planning 6 months in advance if you want to keep ahead of your competitors. This is exactly what the team at Waterfront have done. They will be taking delivery of their Christmas 2013 brochures in the first week of June! This year we have developed a simple but stylish flyer based on the theme of "the place to be at Christmas".

There will be a complimentary website page and posters etc too - so the Waterfront have got Christmas under control!

If you have anything you'd like to promote around the Christmas period then don't leave it too late, give us a call now of 01332 291141 and we can have a chat about how we can help you to make the most of the season!

R and D exhibits a great idea

When keen golfer and all around good egg Terry from R and D asked for our advice, we were pleased to be able to provide a range of creative services to help him with his special event day.

We created two large format exhibition panels in the form of popular 'banner stands'  - these low cost panels roll up to fit into a carry case to allow for easy transport and look great when in use.

We also created complimentary posters and flyers. All these items were designed, produced and delivered within a very tight time frame and to a very high standard.

We think Terry's event will be a resounding success - and we wish him continued success. If you have an urgent project or need some competitively priced creative ideas, then please call us on 01332 291141 - we'd love to help.
