Quick Q
|
I attended a luncheon recently
about loyalty marketing and was astounded by a statistic the speaker
provided. She said only 25% of companies who collect customer data
actually use it to help them make business and marketing decisions. So,
75% who collect customer data don't analyze or use the
information. WOW!
Tell me, Do you collect customer data? Do you use the
information in your business?
In the next newsletter I'll report
back and we'll see how the #'s compare.

Online training and
testing tools are
turning into mainstream soluitons for companies looking to facilitate
efficient and effective training and testing. And as HR pressures
continue to increase, so to will our use of technologies that eleminate
"people" from the process.
If you're interested in seeing an application in use,
our technology partner, Corectech, has developed a tool for online WHMIS

Corectech has also developed a web based testing tool that is

Welcome to Your Next Great Idea!
I get
inspiration and ideas from some unusual places. Color pallets come to me
from nature, fine art, trendy fashions and the local paint store.
Design concepts and promo ideas are sparked by pouring over the latest
issue of trendwatching.com, observing people on a busy street and
getting up from my computer and dancing to what ever happens to be on
the radio.
I find if I take a step out of the ordinary great
ideas are sparked, so I invite you to take a step out of your ordinary
routine, have a look at what some other companies are doing and maybe
you'll get Your
Next Great Idea!

Canada Welcomes the King . .
.
|
. . . the King of pies that
is!
One of the worlds hottest franchises, with over 350
franchises worldwide, has hit North America, and Winnipeg, Manitoba, is
the location of the first Canadian King Pie restaurant.
We've
added King Pie to our list of great bosses and are thrilled to be in on
the ground floor of such a delicious business enterprise. We are
currently working with King Pie to develop a marketing strategy and
tactics to launch the first store at Portage Place Shopping Centre in
Winnipeg on, October 5, 2007! For more information about King Pie and
franchise opportunities visit the King Pie website at www.KingPieCanada.com.
CONGRATULATIONS
KING PIE!

website which was designed by Dubyts Communications this summer.

Banner Bonanza -
|
We've been designing banners
like crazy lately. Not the old vinyl on vinyl, but full color
retractable horizontal and vertical banners. Our clients are using them
to replace old pop-up and panel trade show booths, at golf tournaments
and at special events and meetings.
Why the bonanza? We
attribute this trend to:
- improved reproduction
technology - high quality digital color is amazing
-
quality hardware - lots of options out there but we've got a great
supplier
- ease of use - almost anyone can set them up
and take them down
- portability - just throw it over
your shoulder and away you go
- cost effective -
relative to other comparable alternatives
They really are a
great way to communicate a message, anywhere. Add incredible
design, powerful graphics and impactful headlines and we're stopping
them in their tracks.
Pictured above is a multi-banner trade
show booth concept created for Federated Insurance. |

Notably
Newsworthy -

Looking to
get some press without committing an act of violence or ending up in
the obits? Partner up with a notable brand like QNET has done for
their upcoming Excellence
Conference.
QNET is bringing in a keynote speaker from
National Geographic. Wade Davis, an Explorer-In-Residence at the
National Geographic Society, will lead the conference with a breakfast
keynote address. The National
Geographic name brings with it familiarity, trust and an image of
quality . . . making it newsworthy.
We're working with QNET to
develop marketing materials and media consulting for the conference. The
integrated campaign includes print, web, email, newspaper, radio and
TV. This event promises to be a truly EXCELLENT one!
Also
notable, we received a few kind words from National Geographic on our
design concept and 6 panel brochure layout, which we quickly requested
permission to use on our website on the "Meet the Boss" page.
For
more information on the Conference visit www.qnet.mb.ca.
