Porsche - "Business Card" COmmercial

11/14/2014

0 Comments

 
Porche had a commercial a few years ago promoting their new 911 Carrera S model. In the commercial a young boy dreams of one day owning a Porche, after visiting a local dealership he asks for a business card. 

What you can takeaway from this commercial is that giving someone your business card is like planting a seed.
The boy promises to comeback in about 20 years, in a MLM business 20 years for a call back might not be what your wanting. But when you give someone a business card you give them a reminder. At the time, your business offer might not have been what they were looking for at that moment. You might get a call in a week, in a month, or even a year but you'll have a greater chance of a call back if you'd have given them a great business card...

The end of an era, PGD shuts down

8/22/2014

When I joined Unicity as a franchise owner in late 2009, a conversation with T Gray led me to start developing marketing tools for Unicity franchise owners. Starting with business cards and expanding to banners and posters.

Shortly afterwards PGD, still new, ran into problems with their website developer. T Gray gave me a call asking if I could help and I replicated the site to a T giving PGD full control of their own website and welcoming me into the PGD family.
Over the years all of those presentation videos were edited by myself, all of those graphics were designed by myself, all of those dvd's were created and produced by myself, and all of those websites were yes you guessed it made by me. I've spent many late nights and long hours working on projects for Unicity franchise owners who've used the PGD System. It's been a labor of love bringing the ideas of Jim Fobair and T Gray to life, making every presentation better then the previous. I've learned a lot over the years working closely with two great leaders, both Jim and T believed in me every time a deadline arrived.

And so, to help alleviate the frustration of Unicity franchise owners confused on which training "team" they should commit to, members from all of the top north american training teams got together and, with the urging from Unicity corporate, became one. Deciding to move forward with the newly created Do X Get Y system. We wish everyone the best and support their vision of unity. 

Not to worry, we'll still be here bringing you the absolute best in marketing materials. Expect a lot more new products and although PGD is now part of the past, we will always remember it as the beginning.

Thank you

VW's 'Eat The Road' Print Ad is Actually Edible

8/1/2014

0 Comments

 
Volkswagen is all about the unusual print ads lately. In Norway, the automaker recently offered test drives right inside a print ad. Now, VW South Africa has cooked up a lovely little ad you can eat—and placed it in Auto Trader magazine. "Eat the Road," reads the copy. "Seriously, eat it." The ingredients are listed on the side as "glutinous rice flour, water, salt, propylene glycol, FD&C colour, glycerine." It's not really clear if those ingredients form the coating for the road that appears in the ad, or what. Are you supposed to wolf down the whole thing, paper and all? A little research into propylene glycol isn't very encouraging—in the U.S., the EPA warns factory workers to avoid skin contact with PG to prevent brain, liver, and kidney abnormalities! I'll stick to reading the thing.

WORLD’S MOST EXPENSIVE BUSINESS CARD IS DIAMOND STUDDED AND COSTS $1500 A POP

7/31/2014

0 Comments

 
If you think business cards just help you share your contact details, you need to up your luxury quotient a bit. Keeping in mind those “ultra high net worth individuals” who believe in expanding their network by socializing with like minded people, Black Astrum is out with customized Signature Card range. Meant for high profile people across Europe, the Middle East and Asia, the Swiss metal business cards come studded with diamonds. Said to be a “highly distinctive symbol of status and wealth”, one set of the cards feature over 30 carats of diamonds.

Since its exclusively customized to a client’s specifications, the cost of making varies. 
However, the company states that the average selling price per card is about the £1000 ($1,500), and it is sold in sets of 25, 50 and 100 cards.

It's BAck!

One of our very first designs and most popular card to date has been re-released. The Doctors Speak Out business card was a big success and a crowd favorite, but it was discontinued last year and only available by request.

We are happy to bring it back and it still looks great. Keeping the original classic look, small changes were made to bring it up to date. Unfortunately the Pre-recorded hotline is no longer active and has been removed from the card.

New Business Card backsides

7/31/2014

We've just introduced the option of having a printed backside, and the response has been overwhelming. 

Most of you have longed for this option and now it's available on most Unicity product business card designs. The new backsides will not be UV coated, this helps prevent multiple cards from sticking to one another. Blank white backsides are still standard.

Updated Business cards

7/31/2014

Things have been quiet here at AMS, until now. We've taken some time and updated our business cards. Several cards received minor updates such as making the background pattern stand out a bit more, and tweaking the sub-header text. Products with different versions were merged into one card.

Cards like the UnicityComplete had the two new flavors added, and the UnicityCore and Define Your Prime Logo cards received new color options

Why VistaPrint is Bad for your Business

5/2/2014

Shona Creative wrote a great article about VistaPrint. Don't get suckered by their cheap prices, you get what you pay for, and in network marketing your card is a reflection of you and your business.

Why VistaPrint = bad for your business 
You get what you pay for, and that's why it's all 'FREE'

THEIR QUALITY 
Years ago, when I was an ity-bity baby entrepreneur I thought I'd give VistaPrint a try (before I found my own fantastic, professional printer Amber Media Solutions). And here's what happened. Design aside, the cards were: 
- smaller than a regular business card 
- very, very thin 
- very little coating on them 
- tattered at the edges and corners from lack of quality card and coating 
- dull in colour, even the white was greyish 
- the top edge was cut on an angle!I remember going back a couple of months later to give their flyers a try and the same result occurred, except instead of cutting the edge on an angle, they put the back upside down from the front so the flyer looked completely confusing and unprofessional!
