Regular Vs. Premium Flyers
When you’re designing a flyer to advertise your business or special event, it can be tempting to think small – as in small budget. After all, printing 1000 “regular” full-color flyers on good sturdy cardstock can cost a fraction of the price that printing 1000 flyers with premium features can.

How to Successfully Promote your Business at the Miami International Boat Show
It should come as a surprise to no one that Miami is all about boats. Even a broke schmuck could end up on a boat by the end of any day in Miami if he rubs enough elbows with some of the thousands of people who own cigarette boats, yachts, sailboats, and party barges in this town.

The Miami International Boat Show, which runs from February 14 to February 18 this year, brings in tons of boat enthusiasts from near and ...
