Is it you vs. HQ?
It happens. Often when I head into our First Strategy Sessions we find out that organizations don’t always know what sets them apart from the rest of their competitors…or they know what speaks to their local demographic but it conflicts with what HQ is asking of them.
If this is where you find yourself, you are not alone. What works for one office in one place, doesn’t always work for another market. Ask any of the big banks in the US who tried to infiltrate the Canadian market only to discover that what worked there, doesn’t work here, or look at Target who is struggling to make it work in Canada. We aren’t saying go rogue and leave Corporate’s messaging behind. NO! let’s look at their big message, your desired outcome and develop a place in the middle to build a effective and engaging campaign that brings your organization loyalty and additional business.

Part Deux…of Things we will all think to ourselves!
In honour of all those who have kept us from enjoying ourselves over the Holidays of the past…these last 5 points are for you! 6. Under no circumstances should you exercise between now and New Year’s. You can do that in January when you have nothing else to do. This is the time for long naps, which you’ll need after circling the buffet table while carrying a 10-pound plate of food and that vat of eggnog. 7. If you come across something really good at a buffet table, like frosted Christmas cookies in the shape and size of Santa, position yourself near them and don’t budge. Have as many as you can before becoming the center of attention. They’re like a beautiful pair of shoes. You can’t leave them behind. You’re not going to see them again. 8. Same for pies. Apple. Pumpkin. Mincemeat. Have a slice of each. Or, if you don’t like mincemeat, have two apples and one pumpkin. Always have three. When else do you get to have more than one dessert? Labor Day? 9. Did someone mention fruitcake? Granted, it’s loaded with the mandatory celebratory calories, but avoid it at all cost. I mean, have some standards, mate. 10. And one final tip: If you don’t feel terrible when you leave the party or get up from the table, you haven’t been paying attention. Reread tips. Start over. But hurry! Cookieless January is just around the corner. Still need SWAG for something special? Can you believe its not too late?. Our premier suppliers are still shipping in 24 hours! We are looking forward to starting January with a bang, as we are awarded our Second National Award and shop the New Products Show! To those who’ve enjoyed the ride this last year with us, thanks for listening to our crazy suggestions & taking the leap! Its been wonderful being a part of all your success. Sincerely, Sam, Karen & JenniferThings we all think to ourselves…
Things we will all think to ourselves this Holiday!
You Ready to Get At it?
Are you ready to get started?
Gratitude means many things to many people… and what it means to you may be less important than what it means to the people you depend on.
Just out of Thanksgiving, we are coming into a season where we are expected to show our appreciation to those who make it happen for us – our staff, our clients and all those in between. Before you think about another generic gift basket, consider for just a minute, just what each of those might appreciate (and no, it’s not actually MONEY). Cash is currency, not a gift. We’ve assembled a beautiful flip e-catalogue to get you started in the right direction. Next just hit “reply” and our team will start whipping up something magical to suit your recipients, your budget and save you lots of time (I promise) while getting you greater return than that gift card. Click here to flip through the 2013-2014 Talbot Leaves & Snow Collection. Or skip that all together and click here to get started. Copyright © Silver Star Swag, All rights reserved. We’ve met, done some business or had you in our sights to partner with…looking forward to connecting again soon – Our mailing address is: Silver Star Swag 4221 Rideau Valley Drive North Ottawa, ON K4M 1B2 Canada Add us to your address bookIts Not About the Pen
