Brand Consistency: Nadine Pfautz of C.H.A.R.T. Consulting is a sharp, professional Human Resources Consultant that wanted to overhaul her company’s image.  Together, we “charted” out a new course for her brand that is consistently reflected on her website, rack cards, calendar, letterhead… even her name tag and client gifts, like koozies!

Annual Reports: Does your Annual Report “sell” your business?  If your company has to create one anyway, why not make it a good-looking marketing piece as well?  I can help with proofreading, graphics, pie charts, whatever you need to get it all together.

P.S. Chica and I say, without a great website and branding that stand out, you might not stand a GHOST of a chance in the marketplace… now that’s scary!

This month we’ll be treated to the beauty of changing leaves, and I got to thinking…  what CHANGES could help my business in this last fiscal Quarter?  And what changes could I help YOU make, to market and grow your business?  Creativity is key, especially in these CHANGING economic times.

This month’s projects feature three clients who are CHANGING their brands and marketing materials.  You might be interested in their stories, or perhaps interested in their services (skin care, networking group for women, or a local garden club)?

Happy Autumn! -  Lois • • •

The Challenge: Ewa Deveney of Studio 123 Norwell is the owner of a beautiful skin care and nails boutique.  She realized that her logo, printed materials and website did not adequately represent her business.

The Solution: We created a softer, more feminine, high-end look for her salon.   Now, from signage to business cards to website, potential clients can truly get a sense of what great services she offers.

The Challenge: Jeannette Travaline and Stacey Cocco of South Coastal Bank noted the steadily increasing numbers of women entrepreneurs in this area. They wanted their bank to be supportive and involved in this trend.  They created a “Dynamic Divas,” program, providing business women with education, networking, personal enrichment and professional development.

The Solution: Working with the Dynamic Divas team, we designed a fun and innovative brand, and an informational, attractive, user-friendly website.  Since the program’s creation a year ago, 122 Dynamic Divas have emerged.  Feedback has been fabulous and attendance keeps growing!

The Challenge: The Community Garden Club of Duxbury used the same traditional logo since 1927, and the new President, Lisa Pattinson, decided it was time to update the look!

The Solution: We worked together and came up with a crisp and modern logo, but kept the circular text of the old logo.  Garden Club members love the new look and feel, and membership has increased since its introduction.

I hope I’ve sparked your interest in possible CHANGES that could help your business grow and prosper.  Please email anytime for questions, advice, or consultation…  I enjoy helping colleagues!

P.S. I’m looking for more opportunities to give my “Top 10 Website Mistakes” presentation.  It’s 5-8 minutes long, and reviews say it’s fast-paced and humorous!  Contact me if you know of an organization that might be a good venue, thank you!
