Power & Sail Leaflet

Power & Sail provide marine electrical design, installations, sales and repair for the sports, leisure and charter boat sectors that includes motorboats, powerboats, ribs, fishing vessels and racing/ cruising yachts. They are based in Lymington and Southampton but operate across the south coast.

It goes without saying that boats don’t come cheap and so boat owners are very discerning when it comes to selecting a company to handle their maintenance. That’s why it was vitally important to Power & Sail that their marketing material reflected the high quality, premium service that they offer.

For the above leaflet Power & Sail provided the text, images and logo - then following their brief we produced the leaflet design.

It’s immediately obvious that this leaflet has been professionally designed. Therefore anyone picking up this leaflet will feel reassured that they are dealing with a professional company. The images on the front grab attention while the reverse provides the necessary details.

ETC Folded Leaflet

ETC Training Centre is specifically designed for committed football players who want to develop to make the step up from grassroots football.

Based in Southampton, they bridge the gap between professional clubs and grassroots football by offering talented players opportunities to continue their football development through professional coaching and competition matches.

We designed and printed this A4 half fold leaflet for them. They supplied the text and images and we developed the concept and design. Having a professionally designed folded leaflet such as this makes it much easier for ETC to sells their services to prospected customers – in this case talented footballers. The design will immediately catch the attention of people interested in football and then allow them to easily digest all the information. Including a high profile testimonial from Lukas Jutkiewicz, a professional Everton player.

Statham Business Stationery

We designed the above corporate identity and business stationery for Statham Property Maintenance who are based in Southampton.

It’s easy to forget how important business stationery is for a company. If you are trying to win a new contract by writing to the prospective customer on what is obviously a home produced letterhead it won’t inspire their confidence. In trying to save a few quid in printing costs you could loose thousands of pounds worth of business. Business stationery typically consists of letterheads, compliment slips, business cards and sometimes continuation sheets.

How can you tell the above stationery hasn’t been produced at home?

• The company has a corporate identity (see below)
• It’s obvious some thought has gone into the design of the letterhead and business card
• Good quality paper has been used for the letterheads and compliment slips
• Heavier card has been used for the business card
• It’s well printed – lithographically as apposed to inkjet or laserjet (you can tell the difference)

The corporate identity is the combination of the text, graphics and colours used. You know how you would like your business to be perceived but the art is to make sure your marketing material conveys this consistently. A corporate identity helps customers familiarise themselves with your brand and so instantly recognise that the message is from you.

The clever idea in the above logo is that the different elements, i.e. the logo and icons, can be used in different way across a range of marketing material.

Digital Booklet

We print a range of high quality lithographically printed booklets (or magazines) with many different specifications, e.g. size, stock weight, finish, covers etc. However for runs of less than 500 we also produce simple digitally printed booklets too. Printing digitally doesn't offer the same quality finish or variety but if you only need a few and are on a tight budget then they are a good solution.

Above is an example of a 12 printed page (12pp) A5 digital booklet we did for the New Naturalist. Collins New Naturalist series is the longest-running and arguably the most influential natural history book series in the world with over 100 volumes published in over 60 years.

So if you need a booklet printed the chances are we have a product to suit. Prices of our booklets start from £75 for 50 - see our website.

Parkers NCR Pad

We offer such of wide range of products that it’s sometimes easy to overlook the more mundane but important products like NCR Pads, or as they are variously called duplicate sheets, copy pads, carbonless forms, order forms etc.

Above is an example of an NCR Pad we did for Parkers. Established in Totton, near Southampton, for over 10 years, Parkers have built an enviable reputation for matching quality tenants to quality properties.

We can design the forms to meet your requirement, from 2 to 4 part, including adding perforations, numbering and printing on both sides - customers often add their terms and conditions on the back of the forms. We can produce the forms as loose sets, pads or booklets in the usual sizes of DL (1/3 A4), A6, A5, A4 and A3. In the studio we’ve got samples and examples to help and inspire you for what is possible.

Ice Scraper

Given the current weather conditions I couldn't help posting these ice scrapers that we printed for NGS.

As previously mentioned NGS supply winter maintenance vehicles, complete with skilled operatives, to undertake the pre-salting of highways, car parks, paths and roads.

Just think how many of NGS's customers are using these at the moment and so are constantly being reminded of them. That's why promotional items like this are such a great way to promote your business. Of course as well as ice scrapers we do pens, mugs, pads, rulers, wine, key rings etc. have a look at our website for prices.

Fresh Therapies Voucher Card

We designed and printed these voucher cards for Southampton based Fresh Therapies.

Fresh Therapies operate from a beautiful, relaxing, and well equipped studio in North Baddesley. They offer their clients the chance to fully escape the stresses and strains of everyday life, and to invest a little time indulging themselves, their bodies and minds for a better well being!

Voucher cards are a silk greetings card but with an extra tear-off voucher panel. They can be used as gift certificates, as in this example, or as a card with a thoughtful gift or special offer, saving or discount.

So if you’ve got a service which you can give as a gift, like Fresh Therapies, then why not try selling some voucher cards.
