Welcome to the first AN Design newsletter, we figured it was about time we got with it. We have designed several newsletters for our clients. If you are interested in seeing a sample, let us know, we can design one for you too! As our business continues to grow we would like to keep you informed with what we are doing, our latest upgrades, new clients and tip and tricks for your business. Since this is our first, we'd like to know what you think! We appreciate any feedback. Just reply to this email.
CONTEST
Instead of coming up with a catchy name for our newsletter, we have decided to let you come up with one! Submit as many entries as you want... the prize is big!

You can win a FREE logo design, FREE stationary design or a FREE newsletter design. WHOA! Pretty cool huh? Want to play but don't need a design piece? Give it to someone who does. I am sure you have a friend who would love it! You will be featured in a future issue of our newly named newsletter.

Just reply to submit your entry or email us.
WHAT WE ARE UP TO
These days we are keeping quite busy with work as new clients keep coming in and current clients offer new challenges. To help keep up with the demand we added a new MacBook Pro to our team. If you an Apple geek like us, you'll appreciate this gorgeous machine.
STAYING GREEN
It's easy to notice the trends going around currently with hybrid cars and energy efficient light bulbs being advertised everywhere. Who doesn't have green on the brain? Green thinking is here to stay, not just a trend.

Here are a few ways to stay green:

  • Instead of meeting in person, use a conference call or email. Beats paying for rising gas prices. Although we love meeting you in person, it isn't always necessary. If a client is local, walk, take the bus, or bike it!
  • Use the backs of old faxes or envelopes as note paper.
  • All the light bulbs in our office are energy efficient. We don't even use them during sunny daylight hours, we just open the blinds on the window. Have you switched your bulbs yet?
 
MARKETING TIP
Invest in Quality Marketing Materials. Print nice business cards, brochures and direct-mail pieces. Rent a highly targeted mailing list then design an inexpensive but effective postcard with your marketing message.

WE HAVE MANY RESOURCES – USE US TO YOUR ADVANTAGE!
In addition, we also can work with environmentally-friendly printers to suit your business and your conscience. From recycled paper stocks to soy-based inks and water-based coatings, our network of printers strive to offer sensible alternatives that help sustain the environment.
