Custom Note Pads

Custom designed and printed note pads or scratch pads are a great giveaway or promotional item, and are also perfect for corporate gifts and employee recognition. Give them away at trade shows or events. Or leave behind for a top client. This product is packed with value. They are a useful item that keeps your name in front of clients for a long time. The pad will sit on your client’s desktop where they will be reminded of your company daily as they write a to-do list or memo. Or your client will carry it with them to meetings, showing it to potential referrals for your business. This product is suitable for nearly every business. For an add-on to corporate gift baskets or employee holiday gifts, go beyond cheap custom notepads and toss a customized personalized note pad in the package.

Note pads come in a variety of sizes, colors, and paper. Note pads can be printed with as many pages per pad as you’d like, though we usually recommend 50 or 100 sheets per pad. The pads can be printed in one, or multiple ink colors. Nearly any paper type can be used in the pad, from bright colors, to recycled or eco-conscious paper. Based on a standard sheet of paper, we suggest quarter page, half page, or full page note pads.

The best promotional item to be passed around is the one that will get used repeatedly. A note pad is a great investment for your marketing dollars.

Logo Design

We love designing logos. To successfully brand your business, you should project an image of strength and stability. Customers need to trust that you can and will deliver on your promises. They have to feel comfortable with you.

Simply telling your customers you stand behind your products and services may not always be enough. When your marketing materials scream “amateur” it becomes difficult to convince prospects that you’re different from their serious about offering a quality service for them.

The cardinal rule to looking professional is to coordinate your promotional materials–from your business cards to your website and everything in between. If your marketing materials don’t match, potential customers may believe they’re looking at different companies. Here are four easy ways to tie your marketing materials together:

1. Create a clean and uncomplicated logo.

2. Make one color yours.

3. Work with only one or two fonts.

4. Stay the course.

Nowadays, your company’s actual size may not matter, but its perceived size does. And looking big will pay off big-time.

Brochures, Postcards, Rack Cards, Flyers

Brochures or flyers are usually the most important part of a company’s marketing communication toolkit. No matter how great the product or service or how polished the sales team, a brochure that communicates well what the company does and how well it does it may determine whether or not a potential customer will decide to buy. A rack card is all about being brief and to the point, but also provides enough information about the product or service while conveying the right feeling about the company and the people who run it. A postcard campaign provides the vital “touches” a company needs to stay visible to its client base. Digrafika can design and implement an effective campaign for your company, no matter how small it is.

Business Stationery

After you have a logo designed, you may want to consider a business stationery package. We can create several samples which incorporate your new logo and your contact information. Your logo can be used on business cards letterhead, notepads, business or return envelopes, labels, and more. Depending on the package you have chosen, we will provide you with file templates of your new letterhead, envelope, and business card, to take to your printer.

Often we suggest having several items printed at once because it saves money and time in production. Letterhead and envelopes, and even some business cards, can be printed in succession using the same inks. Depending on what your printing needs are, we can arrange to have your stationery printed, or make suggestions where to take your designs for production.

Keep your audience in mind when designing a logo

If you’re considering a new logo for your business or new product, keep your audience in mind. Often a business owner tries to choose a logo that is based on a private experience or personal preference, without giving mind to who they are marketing their services too.

Your logo design must be appealing to your target audience. Therefore, you must take some time to consider who your target audience is with the logo design. If you are targeting upper middle class business people, your logo design will be vastly different from a company that targets teenagers who like to skateboard. If your logo design fails to catch the attention of your target group, your business will likely be passed over for the competition.

But most importantly, the finished logo design is meaningless until your company can communicate to consumers, through marketing and networking, what its underlying associations are. It is a trigger that leads consumers to identify with and become loyal to your brand. But building that mental bridge takes time and money. The story of the Nike swoosh, an otherwise meaningless symbol, has been told through saavy marking and has transformed the logo into a symbol for an athletic lifestyle.

Designing is an intuitive process and interpreting a client’s vision can be a fun challenge. A graphic designer’s line of questions and method of consultation is designed to enhance the creative process and determine who you are targeting and how to tell your story.
