Adair County Public Library

I just got to thinking I should have done “BEFORE & AFTER” pictures of this brochure.  Perhaps I’ll follow up with that idea later this week.

This is obviously a tri-fold brochure I designed for the Adair County Public Library.  It’s an informational self-mailer piece  marketing their Endowments and Gifts.

Glenda came to me and said they needed to step it up and hire a designer to overhaul the brochure and give it a professional look.  They provided me with all the copy, photos, and logos.  The brochure came together quickly and under budget.

With ample preparation and planning on your end… hiring a professional designer doesn’t have to break the bank!  If you’re looking at some of your own marketing materials that really need updating, contact me today and let’s talk!

2010 NEMO Bridal Expo

It’s that time of year again… time to start preparing for bridal shows and meeting newly engaged couples! I’m an Event Sponsor once again for the 2010 NEMO Bridal Expoand their graphic designer too! We just updated all the materials and are sending out vendor packets to local businesses this week.

If you’re located in Northeast Missouri and would like to be a vendor in this bridal show, be sure to contact Donna Brown with TailorMade Events for more information. She’ll get you set up with a packet and answer any questions you may have.

On the other hand, if you or somebody you know is getting married in 2010, you should plan on attending this fabulous show. Not all of the businesses that participate in this show have storefronts… so it’s the perfect opportunity for you to see them all under one roof. This year it’s taking place at The Crossing church. We change venues every year so that people can see the various facilities for rent in the area.

Think for a minute about your product and services brochure… have you outgrown it… is the information out dated… are the pictures from the 90′s? If so, now is the perfect time to freshen up your look and reach out to your clients to remind them you’re still around to be of service!

Columbia Chimney Sweep

Here’s another logo I designed for a start-up business in Columbia, Columbia Chimney Sweep. It’s the perfect time of year to offer this service to the community. If you have a fireplace and it’s been a while since you’ve had maintenance done and you’re in the Columbia area… call Donald at (573) 256-8555!  Tell him Brooke sent you!

Here is the door hanger I designed for his door-to-door marketing campaign. What better way to truly TARGET your market! It’s a fitting method for reminding home owners the importance of keeping your fireplace and chimney safe.

Best of Missouri Hands – ArtSmart 2009

This is the second year I designed the ArtSmart conference brochure for The Best of Missouri Hands. It’s an annual conference where artists come together for a weekend of learning, networking, inspiration and friendship. Be sure to visit their website to learn more about the organization AND the conference!

Each year the conference has a different theme… this year it’s Meet Me in St. Louis. I designed the brochure to unfold like a map, incorporated a nautical look to match their creative copy, and used a few snapshot photos from the previous years event. It was a little difficult to photograph due to the fold, so here’s a link to the online version attached to the Best of Missouri Hands website.

The conference is this weekend and I’m sure if you’re interested it’s not too late to register! If you can’t make it to the conference… maybe you’ll consider supporting the arts by becoming a member. Something to think about.
