One of Our Best Projects We Have Completed!

It is no small feat to become licensed & approved to provide promotional product solutions to Division I universities and apply their approved logos.  Branding-Pros has accomplished this feat!  Recently we completed our most upscale project for the University of Utah.  

Each year the University of Utah soccer program sells season tickets to students and to the community.  To those purchasers of these season tickets the entrance to each individual game is not a formal ticket, but a branded soccer scarf unique to that particular year.  Annually, close to 2,000 soccer fans wear these scarfs with great pride.  These branded scarfs become program collector pieces, foster school tradition and build program unity.  

These scarfs we provided are a three layer, full color, double-side sublimated scarf with frayed ends.  They are 52" long and 6" wide. Working closely with the University athletic department we provide three full production samples before the final scarf design was approved.  This being said, from order to delivery it was 7 just seven weeks.  FYI... sublimation is a chemical heat process whereby color is actually impregnated through pressure into the thread of the scarf.  This imprint process is vibrant to the eye, provides a crisp and very clear imprint, it is permanent in the fiber and is full color. Sublimation can only done on synthetic fibers. We can sublimate any synthetic fiber including apparel.

When you have an upscale project - consider sublimation and more importantly consider Branding-Pros!   We have the proven expertise to pull these technical and important project off!

If You Don't Toot Your Horn - Who Will?



I can pretty much always count on my kids thinking I am pretty great - even though a couple are still teenagers.  It is great to have group of consistent fans!  Now most people who do not know me, I would dare say are not fans of mine on a professional basis.  It is for this reason that I believe it is my duty to TOOT THE HORN of Branding-Pros.  If we do not do it who will?  We want our clients to be our fans.   We want to let them know we strive to be great and be difference makers for them!  In part this blog is dedicated to creating more Branding-Pros fans.

In a like manner, on a professional basis, we have become the fans of our clients and target clients.  We work to help them TOOT THEIR HORNS and help them standout.  This means following and understanding our clients.  As an example, SKI UTAH promotes Utah ski tourism.  We know from a recent published news article that Utah ski tour is up now in the last two consecutive years, with just shy of 4.2 million visits in the 2013 / 2014 ski season.  We follow their blog, we use their app, we know of services - we are their fans. Now it does help that we are avid skiers.  To our clients outside of Utah - come to Utah during the winter months and we will taking you skiing to let you know just how great Utah skiing can be. 

In a like manner to what we stated above, "if we don't toot our horn - who will"? You too must ask yourself the same question - If you don't toot your own horn, who will?

A Matter of Appreciation

Over the course of years we have been fortunate to have worked with certain clients on a consistent basis.  Kern River Gas Transmission is one of those great clients.  To express our appreciation to them and let them know their business is valued, we provided them with a co-branded token of appreciation.  It is our hope that our clients will use these mobile phone chargers, aka - tokens of appreciation, at time of importance to them.  They will then be reminded that we do care beyond building their business.  It is our philosophy that the "Difference is in the Details." 

We Practice What We Preach - Customer Appreciation

Iowa League - Play to Win

This past week I attended the Iowa League of Cities Conference as an exhibitor.  I have attended this same conference type in the states of Minnesota, Washington, Oregon, Idaho, Montana, Utah, Wyoming & North Dakota.  The organizers of conference executed the best municipal conference & expo I have yet attended.  What made this event so successful?  There are four things that caught my attention:
  1. The conference coordinator promoted this event well in advance with the show attendees and show exhibitors.
  2. The conference expo had a 70's disco theme.  The event coordinator encouraged with incentive the exhibitors to foster this theme in their respective booths.  It was great to see many exhibitors do so - even wearing "disco era" apparel.  This conference coordinator already is promoting their 2014  conference with a football theme.
  3. The event coordinator make the expo part of the conference fun for both the attendees and for the exhibitors.  They executed various games (Scratch & Win, Twister...) and features to foster a very fun. There was good music, good fun and yes an open bar.  This focused fun drew attendees to each respective booth - thus allowing the exhibitors the opportunity to engage the attendees more closely.
  4. The event during was limited, three hours during the evening and then 3 hours the following morning.  This limited time period
