Post It Notes

Where does your new business come from? Being able to answer this question is a big part of effective marketing. What if your business comes from referrals? Then keeping your referrers happy is a great way to grow your business. Post-It notes are an effective gift that most everyone can and will use. They also have the added benefit of keeping your contact information handy.

Imprinted Golf Balls

Imprinted Golf Balls

Controlling when your customers think about you is one of the greatest features of promotional items. Their state of mind will have an effect on what they think of your message.

So when do you want your customers to think about you? When they are stuck in traffic? When the are getting ready for work? How about when they are doing their favorite thing? Golf balls are a great way to have your name appear when your customer is enjoying themselves. Just be careful about giving them to bad golfers.

Aluminum, Coroplast, and Paper Yard Signs

Nothing speaks to the quality of your work as much as your work itself. So when you do something great, let people know. For businesses that travel to their work site, you can accomplish this with yard signs. We have lots of options for yard signs, including many sizes of real estate frames, coroplast signs with stakes, and disposable paper signs.

Have you ever received a badly photocopied black and white newsletter? Who wants to read that!?

This 12 Page booklet was created for Moberly Regional Medical Center as an informative newsletter for employees.

We worked closely with the hospital’s marketing department to make something visually inviting enough that people would enjoy reading it. It’s filled with bright colors and full color images to illustrate the stories. The final piece was printed on glossy stock and center stitched.

Photo Reproduction and Custom Framing

Do you have an important family photo that is one of a kind? What if something happens to it and it is lost forever?
This image was the only copy the family had of their relatives. We took the original, reproduced it, and made a custom matte and frame to be used as a gift to the couple’s daughter.
Additional copies can be made easily, and the original can be stored safely away while the image is still enjoyed.

Custom Made Full Color Sign

We were tickled to be asked to help our neighbors, Petal Pusher Floral, with their sign and graphics needs for their new location. The job started with finding someone to help cover an ugly space on the building where the sign would go. We supplied the contractors with sign grade aluminum for that job and they added bracing for the new sign while they were at it. The sign itself is on reinforced aluminum with trimmed edges. It is mounted with decorative bolts that offset it from the gloss face of the building.

Website Design and Content Creation

A web presence is needed for just about every business today. This was recognized by our friends at Youngs Lodge in Callao, MO and so they asked for our help. This website was produced quickly to provide that presence for their brand new operation, but it is easy to update so the content will continue to grow over time. This not only allows them to keep adding information about their services, but it makes the site more interesting for people that come across it a second time, allowing a bond to be built with potential customers.

Website projects require some of The Art Department’s best team work. Websites aren’t just a function of programming or merely of graphic design, its very much a fusion of the two. When we create websites, Jenn develops a concept for the site and then Jeff creates the code. We love to create websites that can easily be updated by the owner of the site, but we can also create content when needed.

Oval Shaped Full Color Sign for Bean Coffee Shop

Want something a bit out of the ordinary? We can do that!
We were happy to help the owners of the new corner drive-through coffee shop, Bean, with their signage. The clean look of the logo is complemented by the unique oval shape. The coloring and finish of the sign match well with the improved look of the building and the overall improvements of the entire corner property. We love helping small businesses look good!
