When you want to have something embroidered, whether it be a logo, a mascot, or even just a name, that image or lettering will need to be digitized before it can actually be embroidered.  Digitizing is a process in which a digitizer uses a specific program to take your artwork or lettering and convert it into an embroiderable file that the embroidery machine will be able to read and understand.  Without an embroiderable file, the embroidery machine will not be able to produce your logo for you.  Digitizing can range in pricing, generally depending upon the size of the logo or the number of stitches that the logo is.  Using a good digitizer is important, because he or she will be in charge of how your logo is going to end up turning out once embroidered.  The digitizer creates the file which tells the machine how many stitches to make your logo, what sequence to embroider your logo in, as well as what type of stitching to use.  When embroidering very small logos or lettering, this can often be a problem with embroidery, as small letters do not tend to show up well.  However, if the digitizer uses the right type of stitching when creating the logo, the letters will look much clearer.  Because the digitizer controls the number of stitches that are put into a logo, he or she also controls the price that the person will pay for the logo.  Embroidery and digitizing are priced according to the stitch count of a logo.  The more stitches a logo comprises of, the more expensive the digitizing and embroidery services will be to the consumer.  So, if the digitizer is able to create a high quality logo using less stitches, then it can save the customer a lot of money.  Bates Embroidery is a company that provides both Digitizing and Embroidery in Dallas, Texas.  ...read more

As marketers continue their debate over the next great advertising medium, a new study released today by the Advertising Specialty Institute found it's not TV, print or radio that gets consumers' attention, but good oldpromotional swag. This includescoffee mugs,pencils, retractablesolar-powered flashlightsor any other product bearing a company logo.Promotional productsmade up a $19.6 billion industry in 2007, per the ASI. Through surveys conducted both online and in-person in major cities, such as New York and Los Angeles, the institute also found that promotional products generate a cost-per-impression average of $0.004, compared to $.033 for national magazine ads or $0.019 for prime time TV ads. The surveys asked 600 participants #who were mostly businesspeople over the age of 21# to recall promotional swag received over the last 12 months. Key findings include: 84 percent of consumers remembered an advertiser based on a product they received. 42 percent had a more favorable impression of an advertiser after receiving a promotional product. Nearly one quarter #24 percent# indicated they are more likely to do business with an advertiser based on items they receive. The majority of respondents #62 percent# have done business with an advertiser after receiving a product. Writing instruments are the most commonly owned tchotchkes, with 54 percent of respondents owning them, followed by shirts, caps and bags. Most #81 percent# promotional products were kept because they were considered useful. More than three-quarters of respondents have kept their items for about seven months. Among wearables, bags were reported to be used most frequently, with respondents indicating that they use their bags on average nine times per month. Bags deliver the most impressions, with 1,038 impressions per month on average. ASI president and CEO Timothy Andrews said the findings indicate that promotional products yield a higher ROI, along with very low cost-per-impression, compared to other advertising media. Moreover, items received this year still generated a high recall rate among recipients, leading to greater purchase intent. "During a time when we're facing turbulent economic conditions, this research advises marketers and business owners to invest in advertising specialties (promotional products) now more than ever," Andrews said. "Advertising specialties provide measurable results for a very reasonable investment."Read more stories like this and promotional marketing ideas on ourPromotional Marketing Blog.  You can alsosearch for promotional productsatwww.FlatWorldDesign.com. ...read more

July 06, 2009 - This Wednesday, Signazon.com launched a new oversized check material called "Snapboard" which makes extra large check presentation easier, cheaper, and faster. Many of Signazon's clients need to produce extremely large checks for presentations, or they need a check that they can travel with, and Signazon.com's new Snapboard material makes that process painless and trouble-free. "What we have found recently is that our customers want to order really big presentation checks from our customer feedback , but the cost of the oversized shipping is just out of their budget—particularly if they need to use expedited shipping," states Kelly Cooper, Head of Internet Sales at Signazon. "At Signazon.com, when our customers ask for something, we listen." Snapboard large Checks, which launch this week, are made of a rigid white plastic that can be rolled up or bent and will spring back to a flat position without breaking. The novelty checks ship out in a rolled up position to reduce regular or expedited shipping costs. The Snapboard material is ideal for extra large oversized checks (30" x 72", for instance), or for situations in which a client needs to travel with the big check for a presentation in another city. "A lot of our clients won't find out that they need a large check until just a day or two before the event," says Cooper. "They don't want to cut back on the dimensions of the oversized checks because size is so important for making an impact, but shipping a six foot package overnight is too expensive for them. Now they can choose the Snapboard material, and get the size that they want, the type of shipping that works for them, and all at a price that they can afford." "We're constantly coming up with solutions to particular problems and issues from our customer Reviews, testimonials and Feedback'. If we can find or invent a way to give them exactly what they want, then we're going to do it. That's why we're always more than happy when our customers call in, Live Chat with us, or submit questions in our FAQ section. As long as they're giving us feedback , comments on what they need and what they want, then we're going to take the rights steps to make sure that it happens."

How To Design ACreative Graduation  Banner One of the simplest ways to recognize a graduate is with agraduation bannerdisplayed on graduation day at a ceremony or party. And, while well disigned banners are reflective of the time and effort put into the recognition, you may be looking for a more polished and professional look. After the celebration, graduation banners are the perfect addition to a class time capsule or a class charity auction, or a graduate-s box of memorabilia. Other banners and signs perfect for students are college banners, college flags and banners, Greek banners, and any cool banners or cute banners that would be appreciated in a dorm room. This article give you few advise to create a graduation banner that will help you recognize the achievement realized by the special grad in your life.   Effective color combinations Color schemes are as important to an effective banner as the message itself. Color combinations between the foreground. Good contrast makes the lettering and graphics stand out ensuring that your banner will grab the attention of the reader. Regardless of the color scheme you choose ensure that the contrast is drastic enough to ensure that your banner stands out to the viewer in a format that can be easily read. Banners margins and white space Margin widths are usually the most abused spaces on a banner. A general rule of thumb is to have the top and bottom margin be 10% of the height, and right and left margins be at least as wide as one of the banner's main font character width. Avoid filling the empty spaces of the banner with graphics. White space helps keep the viewer's eyes concentrated on the text. Graphics SchoolLogos, photographs and other images can effectively be used to reflect your spirit, but should not overpower the intended message.

Use Fonts like Helvetica, Futura and Ariel are more widely used because of their clarity at a distance. Fonts such as these should be used for the main premise of the banner. Secondary messages could incorporate a font similar to Goudy, Benguiat or Times giving your banner enough contrast in fonts to be interesting, yet at the same time be clear enough to be easily read. Refrain from using fonts such as Old English style text, script fonts or Engraved fonts if your intended audience could be at a distance. You could consider more complex fonts such as the later, if your audience is at a short distance such as a trade show or booth environment, but we suggest to not use harder to read fonts so that you can achieve success with both demographics. A misconception of Graduation banner design is to use upper case fonts to grab attention. At times upper case lettering can be used for one word or a line of text for emphasis, but is should be stated that it takes the human eye longer to read and process upper case writing opposed to lower case. ...read more
