FIRST - Please ignore the ADS above this para - it's NOT me I’ve personally worked in practically every aspect of what you’d generally call graphics for decades and decades. With that huge book of experience, I find that clients bring their tasks to me and my team, not as a ‘vendor,’ but rather as their solutions partner. A few recent examples: • The US Open’s LA ad agency wanted to make some billboards that looked like a fuzzy tennis ball – just got it done with no fanfare or drama. • Last month, a client was having a Manhattan PR event and wanted to close off half the space to force focus on just the events’ showcase wall – we made and installed a 40’ fabric graphic wall. Added a large wall graphic around the lobby monitor screen too while we were there. • For over a decade, the NFL’s Play60 program needed teacher and student support materials, customized each of the 32 teams plus two special editions – and we continuously evolved the materials to be focused and effective while always finding ways for greater cost efficiency. • One client’s top executives prefer genuine engraved business cards – no task is too small • A fashion accessories client has us go to hundreds of unique dealers’ stores, measure their windows, and then produce and install window graphics unique to each location • Another fashion accessory challenge was to produce and pack a silk-screened interior window cling and then drop ship to 500 doors. We were told that another supplier had already failed on the project, so we needed to be ‘out the door’ in seven days. • An accessory manufacturer was doing a global product launch and needed to ship intricate countertop displays in both North America and in Europe. We engineered and prototyped here and executed simultaneous manufacturing on two continents. • One major financial institution has us do all their wealth management brochure design for them because we run circles around their in-house service. • A TV network had planned a PR event promoting an unusually funky show, so we produced 2500 each of 4 diecut face masks on wooden sticks for the attendees to use. Followed up with 1000 each of 4 posters, individually rolled and tubed for distribution at a Cyclones game. We have access to all the latest equipment near and far, and we bring an unmatched set of experiences and knowledge along with the uncommon focus and discipline to get things done. In summary then…what do we do? We do whatever you and your teams need done!
