| Greetings! |
As our summer quickly comes to a close many of you are already starting to plan a variety of annual fall & holiday events such as: tradeshows, school or charity fundraisers, pep rallies and year end meetings... the list is endless. Our 2009 catalog is now online, just in time to help you get started. The catalog is a complete interactive online experience. You can browse through pages of the new online catalog just like browsing through the pages of a paper catalog. After "virtually turning" the pages, you select the desired item, it is enlarged in high clarity, with your logo showing right on the item. You'll also see the item description, for full details about the item.
For some, using an online catalog may not be a new experience, but what makes our new e-catalog so unique is the ability to view personalized logos on chosen items with the click of a mouse. No graphic design experience or special programs are necessary.
It's time to stop guessing and start creating! Check out the e-catalog today to see your logo on a sampling of items. We look forward to meeting with you to discuss your next marketing program.
Sincerely,
[NAME] |

How to Motivate Sales Teams in a Tough Economy
by Mike Brooks
Sales reps have it tough today - not only are their clients and prospects harder to sell, but even their companies have pulled back a lot of the incentives they used to reward and motivate their performance.
It started back in December when many companies canceled their holiday parties and annual bonuses. Then it continued as companies announced they were not contributing to their 401K plans and that any raises or increases in commissions would be postponed as well.
As the downturn continues, it threatens to squelch employee morale throughout organizations - from the sales reps, to customer service, all the way to accounting. With little money for standard raises and cost of living increases, many companies are rediscovering the benefits and impact that little perks can have. [MORE]

How to Pull Off a... Halloween Party
Most adults have outgrown trick-or-treating, but kids aren't the only ones who can have a good time on Halloween. Generate some excitement around a Halloween party for your employees or clients. Follow our expert's advice to create a bash that's wickedly awesome, not frighteningly bad.  Step One.
Give it a spooky name
Your party will have no guests unless the name is exciting. A fun and creative name adds a little hype, and it can help guide you in your planning. Think "Night of Fright," "Hauntingly Halloween" or "Frightening Fiesta." Whatever you call it make sure the name is "spooktacular." Calling it a "mixer' is a good idea because it implies that it's for business networking, but it's also a party and it's going to be fun.
Step Two
Decide on the décor.
No matter where you hold the arty, don't the decorations. Black and orange streamers and balloons can adorn the room and faux bats can hang from the ceiling.
