Make it simple. Make it memorable. Make it inviting to look at. Make it fun to read.
Leo Burnett about Advertising
To perform, an entertainer needs someone to perform for. This means getting the word out. All performers have ways of promoting their programs. The methods have changed over the years, but the goal remains the same.
From the simple business card to the promotional packets, exploring our archive of member promotional materials will give you a glimpse of some of our members.
Business Cards & Post Cards
Business cards used to be all one-sided. Today, business cards are still used, but they are usually two-sided and, of course, the graphics have improved immensely.
Business cards can also be more than two sides, like this fold-out example from Steve Varro.
Other Promotional Materials
