Seems Like Just Yesterday!
June 06, 2010
Summer hasn't even arrived and we are already talking about calendars! Why?
Well, calendar companies cannot possibly print everyone's calendar order in October or November (what would they do the rest of the year?)!
So we encourage you to order early and take advantage of early bird prices through July 1st.
Calendars are printed over the summer months and stored for shipment when you need them (in October, November, and December).
Take a look are our calendar selection, and let us know if there is something else you'd like to see.
We have wall calendars, pocket appointment calendars, desk calendars, adhesive, card, commercial, utility, computer strip ...
and themes of every description!

Give me an 'S'
April 14, 2010
Summer is almost here and this means golf, beach, travel, festivals, community events, fun runs, and anything outdoors!
Traveling? See the Grip It Luggage ID and the Clear Airline Carryon.
Golf? We have a category for golf items, many of which are on sale.
Water bottles, t-shirts, can holders, coolers, tote bags, flyers (see the Fold Up Flyer), and flashlights for the campground are appreciated by everyone, and the imprint area is large enough to really showcase your business!
Other things to consider? Our new Wine Totes, wine glasses, ice cream scoops and barbeque basting brushes!

Green Means So Many Things!
New month, new color, same deal! Our gift to you through the end of March is 10% off any green item which is not already on sale!
By “green” we mean the color: Forest, Hunter, Kelly, and Lime … and by “green” we mean anything eco-friendly (we even have a category for it!) … and by “green” we mean Seeds (we have a category for Seeds too, featuring 30 flowers and vegetables).

Never Too Young
February 12, 2010
I think we can all agree any time is a good time to teach children about money … and how saving it can be a lot of fun!
If your organization is a bank or credit union, you may be interested in some of the items we have for kids. We have a new Coloring Book category, and there you will find coloring books which are about money, or visiting the bank or credit union.
We have a new little Piggy Bank on sale through the end of June, as well as some colorful Coin Purses. But anything can be a reward or incentive for kids to save, so visit our Not Just for Kids category where there are jump ropes, banks, kick balls, crayons, flyers, and pencils!
Finally, check out the new 20 oz. Water Bottle … it is made in the U.S.A., is BPA free, and the sides are thin enough to make squeezing easy!

All Aboard for 2010
December 30, 2009
Happy New Year to our customer, The Grand Traverse Heritage Center, which is holding its ever-popular Festival of Trains through January 3rd! Lori, the Executive Director, was kind enough to send us this photo of our Oliver Specialties billboard.
As the new year begins, we are adding new promotional items to our website daily, and offering lower minimums and lower prices (and keeping prices the same) on most!
Be sure to check our Quarterly Specials link January 4 for special sale prices for the first quarter of 2010. We will also be blogging next week with suggestions for winter festivals, home shows, Valentine’s Day promotion, and other ways to get on track for 2010!

Walking the Dog
November 05, 2009
We have lots of pet lovers in our town! Within six blocks downtown, there is a dog groomer, a dog bakery, and a dog accessory store. Our bank places a huge water bowl outside their entry in the summer, as do two or three other retail establishments. The bank offers dog biscuits at its drive-up window, and a local party store passes out “biskies” to whomever stops in with their doggie.
Pet Insurance is now offered by many financial institutions, and many businesses are sponsors of local humane society or pet rescue fundraisers.
Our new Pet Accessory category has a number of items to promote your business to your pet owner customers! One of these is Reflective Collar Tag #V100. Your imprint is on the front, and your customer can enter their address and phone on the back. Look also at the leash covers! Here are two items to keep your pet safe and seen!
Pets are part of the family (Haley and Buddy for me)! Show your customers you appreciate their business by acknowledging the four-legged members of their family!
