Happy 2012! Here's what's been happening.

 

Looking for a house?

Mary Baum - Wednesday, August 31, 2011
Even if you're not, check out Sandy Jacobson's new site. We have yet to take it fully live with her own domain, but the basic elements are in place.
To see the full site, click on the screenshot. Her Twitter page matches, too!

A better site than the clients and a lot of the manufacturers . . .

In my humble opinion. ;-)

A new season at Frontenac Racquet Club brings a new top-level juniors' program.

Mary Baum - Sunday, August 21, 2011
A new season brings a refresh to print and web, as usual.
But this year, we have a new building, with two new courts going in.
And a new tournament-level program for juniors.

Kickstart gets a look of its own.

Mary Baum - Sunday, August 21, 2011
We gave an identity to our 8-week Kickstart program for young moms . . .

A refresh to FRC-JRS.

Frontenac's Juniors program got a refresh
in a sleeker, more athletic style as well.


Does good work need a big budget?

Mary Baum - Monday, June 07, 2010

Don't get me wrong: I'd rather get paid for my work.

But when my father needed new business cards to take to a trade show back in the spring, I certainly wasn't going to charge top dollar. Or even one dollar. 

Still, these cards needed to work hard at the show. A lot of people Dad knew wouldn't be there, and he was going to be introducing himself - at 83 - to a new group of cabinet companies, in the hope that they would agree to have him represent them in the Midwest.

In the end, he got a lot of comments, and a couple of people in company booths agreed to talk to him only after seeing his card.

5 brands born in 2009.

Mary Baum - Saturday, February 20, 2010
I branded one product, three companies and a political candidate in 2009.

I'll tell you the stories over the next few weeks, but here are the logos now.

Bob Olsen's novel take on charitable giving is a product worth investigating. Not sure what he's going to be doing with the product from here on out, but I'll let you know if I find out what his next steps are.

Kimberly Schneider, The Manifestation Maven.

Folks who oughta know say she'll be a big celebrity in 24 months.

Need to de-stress? There's a group of (mostly) women who swear by sewing as their therapy. They're called fabriholics. 

You can spot them because they're much better-dressed than the rest of us, but their credit cards haven't been maxed out yet.

Their headquarters is Sew It Seams, LLC, on Manchester Road in Kirkwood, MO, and their chief sewing therapist is Dr. Cindy Feelgood Schaper.

Imagine a weight-loss program with a 90% success rate and you've got TransFigure Total Health. Supervised by registered nurse Jane Arrington, the program gives clients the support of counselors who have all been through the program themselves - so they know exactly how to help folks through every phase of the plan.

Only one leading candidate for mayor of University City, MO, is almost completely financed from within the city's borders - and believes that City Hall should listen to folks from all over the area, not just in certain neighborhoods. That's Shelley Welsch. And that's why, if you live in U City, you should vote for her on April 6, 2010.
