Did you ever wish you could have beautiful, high resolution photographs of your products to display on your website and in your marketing? As a designer, I’m always concerned with the quality of images my clients send me for their brochures, etc. A poor quality digital photo looks unprofessional. What does a grainy, shadow-filled photo say about the level of service your business offers?

So put your best foot forward and order some photography that does your business justice at Via U! Photography. A dull photo is boring and does nothing for your brochure or website, and it may give your target customers a negative impression of your business. Via U! offers an easy and inexpensive solution for putting your products in their best light, literally.

Choose the background and setting for your product photograph right online at Via U! Then pack up your widget and send it to the studio. The studio photographs your product using the background you selected and uploads the proofs to their website for your approval. You pay only if you decide you want to download the picture. When you approve, you own the photos and can begin using them in your marketing.

This is a fantastic solution for any business wanting to make a big splash in their advertising. If you are a small company but want the expertise of a Madison Avenue photographer, check out Via U! Photography.

Busy professionals give and receive business cards every day, and it’s usually the first impression someone has of us. And we don’t just hand cards to people directly; we staple, paperclip, tape, or toss into envelopes in ways that either cause the card to be destroyed when removed or be lost. Card-It has a solution. They offer a simple card punch that creates die-cut slits into which the corners of a business card are inserted. The punch is approximately 8.5×3.5″ and is a necessary addition to your office for only $29.95. Next time you send a potential client a brochure, flyer, thank-you card, proposal, contract, or invitation, be sure your card is securely attached and prominently displayed.
