Fonts are a big deal. For most people, it is something that you would not think about or consider. Fonts create all sorts of emotive connections, and it being close to Christmas, there are a plethora of font options. Woolworths lately created a promotional stubby coolers, with a bit of a font problem. Read on to find out more!

Woolworths Stubby Coolers

With Christmas around the corner, everything is in overdrive. More meetings happen, more business activity happens, Christmas parties get thrown in the mix. Everything that usually occurs during the year gets busier and more intense at the end of the year.

Woolworth's celebration of

The month of June is on us. End of June in Australia means it is the end of the financial year for many businesses. It is with this in mind that we are releasing a terrific range of new merchandise for June 2019 this year. Here is a sneak peek. Check them out, and please let me know what you think.

Shopping Bags

Now that grocery shopping bags are not available from most major Supermarkets, the need for Shopping Bags is more critical than ever. What is your experience with using your own bag? Personally, I always seem to lose bags and never have one when I need them the most.

If you are like me, then you and the guests in your organization would need more promotional shopping bags. Keep one in your bag, car, office, friends house, and basically, anywhere you may think you would need one.

Fruitloops is one of those cereals that kids either love or hate. Me personally? I think they are pretty alright! Most Aussie kids I know love'em. So it is no surprise (long overdue in fact), that there is now merchandise associated with this delicious cereal product. The branded merchandise in question is custom themed apparel that matches up perfectly to their brand of crunchy yummy cereal.

Merchandise with a Cause

The merchandise that has been released with Fruitloops, at the moment is not available in Australia (i am sure that has to change right?). The money raised from this set of custom merchandise goes to designers and community members that helped produce and market the items. So they are products with a good cause!

What Merch is on Offer?

To begin with, there are ten different types of products,

The business of logo design is a very complicated and costly affair for larger corporations. There are hundreds of considerations and decisions that need to be made when it comes to designing a logo. Below is a list of some of the most costly logos to design in the history of logos. Check them out below.

Why Logos Can Cost a Lot of Money?

Logos can cost a lot of money to design, because they need to convey the right message and the correct feel, regardless of where they are displayed. Consider this, a logo may be visible on any or all of the below locations:

• Websites
• Print (in magazines or newspapers)
• Television
• Personalised merchandise (which can vary widely from promotional umbrellas, business cards, flashdrives, shirts and more!)
• Billboards
• Building signage

Once the locations are identified, larger

Unique Promotional Packaging

So much of the time, packaging design and branding is an intense saturation of words and labels with the express purpose of driving the brand recognition into consumers brains. But sometimes, immense impact can be made with what is not said...

Customised Paint Tubes

Japanese design duo Ima Moteki has sought to revolutionise the way children learn about colours with some ingenious packaging design. Their 'Nameless Paints' range is comprised of minimalistic white tubes of paint labelled with an "equation" of primary colours, so the colour is not identified by a word, but what it is: a colour.

Android are releasing two new phones tomorrow-the Samsung Galaxy S6 and HTC One M9. So with that in mind I have compiled a list of the top 6 smartphones in the world. If you are looking for the hottest new phone, this is a good month to make that purchase!

I’m an iPhone person and nothing really compares to my iPhone 6 but I still appreciate the other options that are out there. Check out my list below:

6. HTC One M9

HTC's newest flagship phone, the One M9, is slightly better than last year’s model. It has a better camera, slightly tweaked design, and faster processor.

5. Samsung Galaxy Note 4

This little free offer by a Pizza Hut Franchisee in Melbourne Australia has raised an eyebrow or two. A Pizza hut branch in Mt Waverley decided that it needed a boost in sales so it decided to offer a deal which included 1 free small animal to customers who bought 10 pizzas.

Free Gift Offer With every 10 Pizzas

The Pizza Hut Franchise located in Mt Waverley decided to do something dramatically different to most normal special promotions. In conjunction with a local pet store, it offered a free small pet with every 10th pizza that a customer purchases. Now I can only assume that the definition of a small pet would be either a hamster or a guinea pig. As you can appreciate many people were outraged by this idea.

Personally speaking I would have been happy with just a free can of coke with every 10 pizzas purchased, or better still just a little freebie promotional keyring

Takeaway coffee cups that you and I use everyday are an environmental peril. In our opinion they are as a whole a much much nastier by product of everyday living even compared with other disposables that end up as litter like takeaway boxes, food packaging, cigarette butts and even exhaust from automobiles. Why? Well there are several reasons. Coffee as a product in itself is generally considered an essential for many people everyday. So some of us may consume the odd takeaway box at lunch time today (some may be considerate enough to recycle them) whilst many smokers overtime do desire to kick the habit but what makes coffee cups different when they are disposed is the sheer quantity. This product is consumed at a relentless pace everyday by most people. In fact expenditure on coffee along will reach $800 million it is forecasted by the end of this year.

Fund Raising Merchandise

Fund raising is many positive things. It brings about community,spirit, team building and most of all fun. All this for a good cause! It is with little wonder that almost every few days brings around a new event and new merchandise products to raise funds. One thing about fund raising merchandise though which needs to be mentioned though is above all else the aim is to raise money. Lots and lots of it for your cause in order to accomplish community and global aid objectives.

Over the years we have developed a good feel for fund raising merchandise as to what works well and what doesn't. You most definitely would want your products to be popular as it means you would have maximised your revenue and minimised excess product waste that do not sell. So with that in mind here are some top tips to keep your fund raising merchandise humming and buzzing along with success:
