Fear cannot be banished, but it can be calm and without panic; it can be mitigated by reason and evaluation. « Vannevar Bush, American scientist (1890 - 1974)
Nichole’s got some good points here - I thought this was worth passing along…
Like many Americans, I have been watching the national news a lot lately. On CNN [...]

Feels good to recycle advertising mail and unused catalogs…

Sure, we’ve all heard “reduce, reuse, recycle” and all the other green and eco-friendly phrases. I found a few pertinent facts and thought they’d make for a good reminder…

Americans use 85,000,000 tons of paper a year; about 680 pounds per person.
The average household throws away 13,000 separate pieces of paper each year. Most is packaging [...]

The Power of Promotional Products… Part 1

December 12th, 2008 · No Comments

I’m a true believer in the power of promotional products - can you tell? Being in the industry, I see them used in so many powerful ways to achieve a specific outcome, but not everyone understands that. It seems that some people think of promotional products as pens, mugs and other goodies that are [...]

Low Cost, High Perceived Value

December 11th, 2008 · No Comments

Here’s another end-of-year blowout. Again, Gemline, one of my favorite suppliers. Always great quality, and service is second to none.

Great for sales teams, association members, just about anyone whose target [...]

600,000 promo items. Easy?

December 11th, 2008 · No Comments

I say useless because most of us in business today have so many things we have to do, that we want someone to help make those chores easier, quicker, [...]

Probably the best eco-friendly value in the industry

I found this gem a few months ago, and ordered a sample. Thoroughly impressed with the quality, I’ve sold a bunch of them. They make great premium items, employee gifts, trade show item for a wheel of fortune, all sorts of uses for them. I have one client that resells them online. They’re eco-friendly in [...]
