Expand Your Advertising Campaign

If you’re an entrepreneur, one of the things that will always be in your mind and should be at the top of your top list is to seriously advertise your products or services. Customers will not know your company exists if you don’t advertise well. With all the various forms of advertising like flyers, posters, commercials (print or media), leaflets, brochures and more, I’m sure you’ll find something that will fit your budget and advertising needs for your company. Not only that, you can join various trade shows where you can give promotional products or give-away, event sponsorships and event giving promos or vouchers for your clients.

I’m sure that you would not want your business to be left behind by others therefore a well planned advertising campaign should be carried on. You can entice more customers if you are always visible and aggressive in not just giving your clients good products or services but offering discounts or deals from time to time. Such effort is worth in the end especially now that there are huge competitions between stores online and on physical stores.

One of the sure-fire approaches to advertising is to have posters or banners where your business name and services/products can be printed. Posters can now be printed in various sizes depending on the client’s preference. 

Posters are not just used by business owners only, because anyone can order small to large custom prints at an online poster printing like ShortRunposters.com that can be displayed in your homes or used for any purpose that you desire. They can print 18 x 24 or 24x36 posters and accepts following types of files JPG, PDF, EPS, TIF, PNG, BMP. There are articles that can help you upload, order and customize your order on their store. Click here for more products that you can choose. 

All online poster printing services are very helpful and useful as customers can order online and many companies offer competitive prices.

My 26th 8x8 Photobook from Artscow

This is the first time that my family had a Halloween Costume Party in Oct. 31, 2011. Actually, I just thought of having one out of craziness. I just told my family that whatever costume that they will have is just fine so we just improvised. I didn’t even spent any single peso for my costume because I’m only a cow girl..lol

The mini-party was fun! The kids even went outside and the people where amused to see them haha.. I complied all our photos and made it into a photobook that I had printed at ARTSCOW.
Actually, I have free referral credits so I used the 30-paged 8x8 photobook for this book. I ONLY paid the shipping fee of $8.99, yey! What a deal!

Artscow books are bookbind so it’s durable.

Music/ Musical Theme Kit

I only have one music or musical theme inspired kit that I designed for artscow and it's the MY ROCKSTAR digi-kit. I have several templates that are free to use by the customers and I'm planning of adding more templates soon.

Actually, I only have templates for girls but my kit is suitable for boys and girls because I made 2 guitars with different colors : one pink and the other is blue. Since musical or rockstar theme are very much in demand or ïn" at parties, I might as well made another music or musical theme kit that can include drum set and I might just need to make a graphic that will look instruments that musicians are really using.

Right now, I'm pretty busy with some other online works, so I'm setting aside my designing for a while now. When my schedule will become light, I might turn to designing once again. I have too many ideas in my mind and I hope I can execute them through graphics.

My 25th 8x8 Photobook from Artscow

This is my 2012 PROJECT 366 (Photo-a-Day) photobook that I made last year and as usual and I had it printed at ARTSCOW.

So as not to overcrowd my photobook with tons of photos each week, I decided to make a book that contains pictures within 3 months and that means I’ll have 4 books for Proj. 366 for 2012.

Here is my 2012 Project 366 Photobook for Jan- March 2012 vol. 1

Ordered another Photobook

It's been many months now that I have not been able to design a digital scrapbooking kit for artscow. I became too busy with my online works that I put it aside for the moment. I'm not completely giving up designing for I also enjoy doing it, it's just that my work schedule won;t permit me to create new designs.

Apart from that, my right arm is always aching every time I strain it so much using the mouse while designing. I'm actually resting it for a while. If I have not designed another kit lately, I was able to finish my 3rd volume of my Project 366 photobook for 2012.

It looks like this. 

 Last year, during the months of October till December, there are pretty much tons of personalized stuff ordered at artscow. I'm not really sure if they have cigar ashtrays that can be personalized too so we can order and give them to our friends who love smoking.

I ordered my book yesterday and I just hope that it will arrive in 1st week of February. I still have tons of photobooks to make but all I need is time to make them.

How to Make Personalised Birthday Invitations

cardsWhenever a birthday is coming, invitations are probably one of the first things you have on your to-do-list. There’s are go about sending out unique invitations and making personalised birthday invitations is just one of them.

 

Since we’re living in the modern age, a lot of people would rather print out their birthday invitations. Don’t you think it would be better if you made them yourself?

How to Design the Perfect Invitation

In making personalised birthday invitations, there are the things you need to do.

· Number of Guests. First thing’s first. Before you start planning out your invitation, you need to know how many guests you’ll be inviting in order to know how many invitations you need to make. It is always a good idea to make a few extra copies to be on the safe side. Preferably at least 5 extra copies. This is important because you never know when you’ll encounter unexpected problems along the way. It’s better to be safe than sorry.


· Budget. This one is optional. Most of the time, people don’t really have a specific budget for making invitations but there are those who do. If you’re on a tight budget, it is vital for you to take the number of guests and the materials you’re planning to use into consideration. If you have a lot of guests and you’re budget isn’t that big then you need to compromise with your materials. There are some materials that are cheap that also have good quality.

 

· Gather Materials. You need to gather all the materials that you’ll need to create your invitation. You don’t need to limit yourself – except if you have a budget of course - in choosing the materials you want to use. It’s okay to have extra materials since you could always use them to make other things or maybe another invitation for anyone in your family whose birthday is near. You wouldn’t want to go back to the bookstore while you’re in the middle of creating your invitation just because you realized you don’t have enough materials, right?

 

· Decide Your Design. After you finally gather all the materials you need, the next thing you need to do is to decide on your invitation’s design. If you don’t seem to have any idea of what invitations you would want to make, you could always go to Google and search for some ideas in creating personalised invitations. With the hundreds and thousands of results you’ll get, it’s impossible for you not to find the design you want for your invitation.


· Work on Your Invitation. Finally the last step. It’s time to start working on your invitations. Don’t forget to have fun in making it because the feelings you have while you’re working on it will be reflected to your finished products.

Updated my Project 366 Photobook

Wow, I can't believe it's 2013 already!

I have many things to prioritize this year and one of them is to be more healthy and to follow the healthy eating pyramid as much as possible. Also, I have tons of photos that are waiting to be scrapped and compiled in a photobook.

It's been many months since I made photobooks and I'm hoping that I can more this year. My friends are into PL- Project Life this year and they are all inspiring. I wanted to do that as well but I still need to finish all the photobooks that I have started.

Inspired, I was able to continue my PAD - Photo-a-Day Project 366 for 2012 and I was able to finish the month of September. Soon, I can have it printed because I'm doing the Photobook every 3months. This means that I am done with my July- Sept. 2012 photobook. Yey!

My 24th 8x8 Photobook from Artscow

This is my 8x8 39-page TRIP TO ALBAY 2011 photobook that I made and I had it printed at ARTSCOW.

I just made this photobook very simple as I wanted to focus more on the pictures rather than the embellishments. Apart from that, I wanted to layout more photos so I can have it printed right away.

My trip was on October 20-23, 2011 and I stayed at a friend’s house. My main purpose in going to Albay is to attend the Christening of my goddaughter Cate. Wished I stayed for more days but I need to get back home.
