Things we will all think to ourselves this Holiday!
I hate aspects of this time of year. Not for its crass commercialism and forced frivolity, but because it's the season when the food police come out with their wagging fingers and annual tips on how to get through the holidays without gaining 10 pounds. Assembled are five of the top ten points we have to say about that...1. About those carrot sticks. Avoid them. Anyone who puts carrots on a holiday buffet table knows nothing of the Christmas spirit. In fact, if you see carrots, leave immediately. Go next door, where they're serving rum balls. 2. Drink as much eggnog as you can. And quickly. Like fine single-malt scotch, it's rare.

As the Rebel Leader at Silver Star, I want to create a small firm that is very good at delivering business impact via swag. That means not just cheap and cheerful giveaways but product that molds the intent of the buyer - sways them in our direction and gets them on our side. We've been running independently in Ottawa since 2003, Seabrook Clients joins us in 2013 and in summer of 2013 after being invited to sit at the 'grown up' table by a pair of key clients, I revisited what Silver Star Swag would need in order to continue to grow with her clients (yes, I was raised a sailor - so like a boat, Silver Star is a girl). So in Fall 2013, Talbot Marketing of

Keeping your wines at just the right drinking temperatures—it’s a great dilemma. Too cold and it could mask the vintner’s uniquely crafted complexities. Too warm and the flavors may take a back seat to the alcohol. Insert into your bottle to cool room temperature reds in 15 min or keep whites perfectly chilled for an hour. Minimum to order is 125 pieces. Price includes a full colour dome label on each side.
