Hot air balloons are in these days and it is here to stay forever. This statement is said with conviction because hot air balloons have so much to offer. A lot of people have written in their journals or lists of things to do to ride in a hot air balloon and reality television shows are some venues where a person can actually make this dream come true.

Fortunately for everyone else, one does not have to join a reality television show to ride in a hot air balloon because the hot air balloon industry is actually growing pretty fast. So once you are in a state where there is a wide open space, check the yellow pages for hot air balloon companies that can make you experience this exciting adventure.

Hot air balloons catch attention because their huge and they fly. Anything that is visible to the eye and flying is always a novelty but for it to be considered more than just a novelty lies in how the things look like. It is important then for hot air balloon companies to work on their signage or creative execution as the people in would like to call it. An balloon signage more than catching the attention also sets the mood for people who will be riding in the balloon.

Just like in the usual mediums, balloon signage should be able to translate properly the concept behind the entire idea of using a hot air balloon to sell a brand or idea. The first thing to consider is the space available and how to maximize that given space. A hot air balloon definitely has a limited space so the art directors should be able to focus on one picture and a short phrase that should be enough to work on.

It would be useless to have too many things going on if it cannot be seen by people on ground. Focusing on a logo and a tagline would be sufficient to get your message across. If the brand or company is identified with a certain color then it would be good for that color to be painted all over the balloon.

A carefully laid out balloon signage can spell success for your brand or for the event you are holding. It is a must that you give proper instructions for the art direction to work well with your big idea after all a hot air balloon is big enough to command attention of people who are around the vicinity where it will fly.

Advertising Great David Ogilvy

The late David Ogilvy, renowned as the Father of Advertising, celebrated his seventh death anniversary on July 21 this year. It is only fitting that we pay tribute to this legend whose original thinking and insistence on basics transformed Madison Avenue in the 1960s and 1970s.

Ogilvy is recognized for his creative genius, but perhaps his greatest contribution to is his formula for creating great campaigns, which is still widely practiced today. At a time when was all about creativity and artistic flair, Ogilvy labored to put science into his craft. He championed the use of four basic principles in the process of creating campaign. These are a dependence on research, professional discipline, creative brilliance and a preeminent regard for delivering results to clients.

Many other great practitioners patterned themselves after Ogilvy, who held the strong belief that an man should be well-rounded and be the product of many influences. He was perhaps the best example of this belief. After all, diversity runs in his blood. Ogilvy was the son of a classics scholar and a financial broker, and he also worked as a chef, researcher, farmer and door-to-door salesman for cooking stoves. He was so good at selling stoves that the company he worked for asked him to write an instruction manual for other salesmen. He also worked as a chef, researcher and farmer.

Among the many great and memorably campaigns that Ogilvy created are the ones for Hathaway shirts, Schweppes, Rolls-Royce and Shell. He also had some controversial tendencies, especially early in his career. Did you know that his first effort showed a naked woman? Ogilvy admitted later that this ad embarrassed him, but he continued to believe that non-traditional approaches such as nudity have their place in .

Part of the Ogilvy legend is the way he got his start in . An older brother, Francis, used to work in the London ad agency Mather & Crowther. Francis showed his bosses the instruction manual that David had written. The big bosses were suitably impressed. In fact, they were so impressed that they quickly offered David a job in the agency. And, as the old clich goes, the rest is history.

Get Translation Help with your Business Academic and Creative Writing or Personal Documents

Definitions…

In the Oxford Dictionary, Translation is defined as the action or process of expressing the sense of a word, passage, etc., in a different language; a version in a different language. It is also defined as the act, process, or instance of rendering from one language into another; from a medium, form or mode of expression into another; the written product of such a rendering. d So little for the definition of such a noble art; because, as I have learned from my years of experience in the practice, translation is actually a crafty activity the object of which is not just to render the meaning of a source document or text in a target language, but entails first understanding the context, knowledge, experience, psychology, intentionality and expectation of the source producer of the said document or text.

So, in spite of the spectalcular advances in software tools and harware platforms, computing technology remains unable (if not to say that it will certainly never be able) to look into history and explore the needs and aspirations of specific document or text writers as would a trained and qualified human mind do. In this sense, proper translation requires human sensitivity. It is this human factor that distinguishes our sevices from many of our ‘paste-and-click’ competitors.

We combine a large professional in-house translation staff with helpful, personalised attention to your document or text in order to provide you with a superior written product that responds to your language needs.

My Team…

My own experience as a historian and philologist is self-evident of my translating skills, combining my ability to understand historical, social, economic, political and psychological instances, with my mastery of linguistic subtleties. Equally, my technical expertise as a bilingual author and fluent speaker of four languages has armed me over years with substantial skills not only in handling grammatical transpositions between languages with a special attention to what is known in French as ‘faux amis’ between similar languages, it as also prepared me for a greater understanding of different societal modes of vision and expression. My team is, therefore, selected from a range of people with great bilingual skills some of whom are natives of areas and conditions of high linguistc bridging, just like myself, born of a Spanish speaking mother and a French speaking Father.

Others team members are linguists who possess the optimal combination of native linguistic skills, cultural knowledge, industry certifications, academic credentials and practical experience in their own respective fields of expertise. And the whole pool of our dedicated translators include interpreters, language instructors, bilingual transcribers, desktop publishing professionals and scholars of different areas and fields such as Dr Patrick Mouvogny. Project teams also include editors, copy editors, technical editors and proofreaders, as appropriate.

So, in addition to their native linguistic capabilities, our team consists of people with interdisciplinary skills with substantial expertise and experience in working with industry areas such as finance, law, healthcare and information technology, among others, and hold requisite advanced degrees and certifications in their own areas of command.

The Projects…

We translate in all major literary, business and diplomatic languages. And we have worked on highly sensitive academic and business projects and have rendered certified translations of personal documents. So, whatever your translation project, large or small, corporate or personal, we look forward to being of assistance to you.

In terms of size, quality, time scale and safety, not only do we translate your document or text, whatever its size or the cutting-edge technicalities and complexities involved, within timely deadlines and agreed time frames, we also created a database of your documents with your consent, in case duplicates were needed in time. In which case, your translated document will be delivered to you with a database identity number which includes the date of production for future reference. And we do all this with safety and confidentiality.

The Rates

We are pleased to offer volume discounts in addition to our comprehensive rates that include the cost of both translation and editing as appropriate (see our Editing Services page). And all our rates are calculated on the basis of the source text. We charge using a Quote feature via e-mail on a per page* or per source word basis, considering that an average A4 page contains approximately 500 words on the standard guidelines of double-spaced lines at 12pts Times New Roman with an average margin setting of 2.54cm for top and bottom margins and 3.17cm for left and right margins. To calculte your document’s size prior to contacting us, in Microsoft Word, click on Tools on the menu bar and select Word Count from the drop-down menu.

Principles and Practice of Advertising The Importance Of Association

March 8th, 2009 at 04:38pm Under Advertising

Given a knowledge of the target audience with their needs, and given an analysis of the product’s specific qualities which may be presented to the consumer as able to satisfy those needs - the next step is the psycho-economic technique of advertising is that of establishing associations, in the thinking and the acting of the consumer, between the need and the product in question.

A common error of advertisements is in assuming that the mere repetition and constant reiteration of the name of the product, company name, or a trade mark will effect a sale by simple brute force. The theory is psychologically wrong. What is desired is not merely that the consumer be familiar with the name of the product. Familiarity may breed contempt. Connection and association, rather than brute impression is what will be effective - connection of such a kind that, given the moment of need, the product name will come to mind before any other product. Not the mere driving of one idea, but the connection of the two ideas, is the task of advertising. The following law should be kept in mind:

The Law Of Contiguity

In general, the best way of establishing mental associations between two things is by presenting them together. Thus Abraham at once makes you think Lincoln because these two words are so frequently seen together. No matter how familiar you may be with the word Lincoln, that word will not tend to come to mind when you think Abraham unless this association by contiguity has been formed. Similarly, the mere repetition of Yuban, Yuban, Yuban does not lead you to think Yuban when you go to purchase coffee, unless, along with the word Yuban the idea coffee has also been presented. In advertising, then, the Law of Contiguity means that whenever the name of the product is mentioned it should be accompanied by the idea of the need which the product is to satisfy.

Principles and Practice of Advertising The Law Of Sequence

March 8th, 2009 at 04:38pm Under Advertising

Digg me


The Law of Contiguity states that one thought will lead to another based on conditioning. Such as Abraham and Lincoln. As a matter of fact two ideas are never present at precisely the same moment; so that contiguity really means rapid succession. One idea being given, the other follows directly in its wake. So in reading advertisements one word of a headline is seen before another, one part of a paragraph follows an earlier part, so that a train of ideas is set up. The Law Of Sequence states that mental associations work more easily in one direction than in the other. Forward associations, that is, associations in the direction in which ideas were originally presented, are stronger, more lively, and more easily recur than backward associations.

This is especially true of such ideas as take the form of spoken words and other sort of acts that involve motor processes. Thus I have seen the letters in the word advertising so often, one immediately after the other, that I can begin with a, d, v and go on quickly and easily to spell the whole word. But it is a very significant fact that I cannot spell the same word backward. The letter a calls up d and these two call up v etc. But if I begin with g and try to reverse the direction of the original sequence I can proceed only with difficulty.

In advertising this means that ideas should be presented in the order which they will later be desired to take. The first idea in the mind of the prospective purchaser will be the feeling of some particular need - such as hotel. Effective advertising means that when this need is felt, it leads at once, by virtue of established associations, to the hotel you are advertising. First the need then the product is the sequence in the mind of the buyer. This should be, therefore, the order in which the two ideas are presented in the advertisement, in the brand-name, the trade-mark, etc.

Some examples would be:
Hotel Astor
Academy Riverview
Cafe Boulevard
Encyclopedia Britannica

Contrasting with these names are those such as the following, which fail to take advantage of the law and in so doing sacrifice real association and memory value:

Douglas Shoes
Mennen’s Talcum
Ridgefield School

The same law holds for the arrangement of items in the advertisement as a whole. The common practice of beginning the advertisement with the name of the brand or firm or company and following it with a description of the need it satisfies may gratify the personal vanity of the firm, but it does not establish the most effective associations in the mind of the reader. In reading the advertisement the mind should be led in the direction in which it should go on the occasion of need.

Advertising Today Strategies for the Short Attention Span

March 8th, 2009 at 04:38pm Under Advertising

My years in radio taught me that the most effective means of ratings success is to speak to the audience you want instead of the audience you have. It can be a long process, and it takes patience to develop and grow your message before you see results. But repetition builds reputation, and it can work for any business model. Here are some things to keep in mind in building an effective campaign:

Keep it simple, stupid. You can say more with less. Don’t clutter your message with too many details. The more compelling the message is, the more pre-qualified your customers will be. A customer more motivated to find out more information, will be more motivated to purchase what you have to offer.

Ask for what you want. Be downright honest with your potential customer. Don’t promise something you can’t deliver, or hide something you can’t with cliches and meaningless tricks and gimmicks. If you want action from your customer, you have to be willing to tell them what you want them to do. I want you to read the rest of this article. When you are done, I want you to read some of the other articles I have written.

Go against the grain. Take a risk on doing the opposite of what you’ve always done or what others are doing. Too many times, successful tactics get tired and worn out, but businesses are afraid to make a change or try something different. I am not going to give you anything free if you read this article or go to my website. The information I have available is just simply too valuable to give away. There will be no coupons, no sales prices, nothing other than the quality with which I conduct my business.

Make advertising cuts a last resort in tough budget situations. Advertising is usually the first thing businesses look at in a difficult economy. It’s just the opposite. I’ve never understood why the solution to a slow down in business is often a reduction in telling people about your business.

Coordinate among all forms of advertising. Just because you don’t listen to the radio, doesn’t mean your potential customers don’t. Link your radio advertising to your TV, internet, direct mail, and newspaper. Radio can reinforce a message on TV which can be aware of your newspaper and lead to better direct mail and can send them to your website. It’s absolutely necessary to building an effective brand.

And finally, rinse and repeat. Keep your message fresh with tweaks and constant monitoring. And don’t let up…or business will.

Grab Customers’ Attention With Advertising Balloons

Let’s face it: most small- and medium-sized companies don’t have huge budgets. Traditional media, such as print, television, and radio are far too expensive. And, for those es that rely on walk-in traffic, Internet won’t reach the intended audience. Thankfully, there’s another medium that’s incredibly effective for a variety of es: balloons.

Advertising balloons - also known as blimps and inflatables - are an incredibly cost-effective method of gaining the attention of passersby and turning prospects into customers. Starting at slightly over $100, the cost of an balloon can be recouped in no time at all.

There are several different types of inflatables. Advertising blimps have the traditional blimp shape, but come in a variety of sizes. They are easily customizable with a company logo, special message, or unique combinations of colors. Advertising blimps can be large enough to attract attention from miles away, or small enough to catch the eye of a trade show attendee. Larger blimps can even be lit at night to garner notice 24 hours a day.

Round balloons are also attention-grabbers. Again, they come in all sizes and can be flown high above the ground, acting as traffic magnets for a ‘ location.

A can also buy a pre-made inflatable, such as one in the shape of a hot air balloon that says, Grand Opening. Eye-catching shapes and colors are sure to attract customers. Similarly, dancing balloons (also called wind dancers) are eye-catching. Inflated with a cold air blower, dancers will delight both adults and children. However, they’re generally made with a light material that doesn’t hold up well in sunlight or strong wind. For that reason, a tarp should always be placed under a wind dancer.

When you order custom balloons, you first need to think through the various elements that will give your balloons maximum impact. Here are attributes to consider:

Lettering: If readability is important, stay with a small number of letters on one or two lines. Determine the distance at which you want your balloon to be read. For maximum impact at 30 feet, for example, letters that are three inches high will suffice. On the other hand, letters that are 12 inches high have maximum impact at 120 feet but are still readable at 525 feet.

Colors: There are specific color combinations that will give your balloon more impact. Black lettering or art against a backdrop of yellow, white, or orange is the most effective, followed by blue on white, white on green, green on white, red on white, and white on red.

Like everyone else, you probably look up when you see an balloon in the sky. Just imagine how much recognition you can get from your from the relatively small investment of an balloon!

Inflatable Advertising Balloon that Works

March 8th, 2009 at 04:38pm Under Advertising

When people want to introduce a new product into the market, many companies rely on television, posters, magazines and newspapers in order to advertise.

Unfortunately, these mediums are quite expensive so firms that are working on a small budget should try something else such as an inflatable balloon.

The balloon is often seen in major sports events like football and baseball. These are made of nylon and coated with silicon. The advantage for those who decide to use this is that people who work in office buildings, those who are driving on the road or those who are walking can see it.

Research has shown that many small companies have also joined in the bandwagon after seeing someone else do this to attract customers.

The inflatable balloon is powered by air and comes in different shapes and sizes. Those who dont have a big budget can get one that is 5 feet in height while those who have money to spend can get the one that is 70 feet tall.

Before the individual decides to use an inflatable balloon, it is best to ask these questions.

1. How big will the balloon be?

2. Will light emit from the balloon so that it can also be seen in the evening?

3. What kind of shape will it have?

4. Lastly, what kind of artwork will the inflatable balloon have?

These four questions are important because the appearance is key in attracting customers. Some firms that specialize in balloons have something that fits those requirements in the inventory. If there are none, a customized version will have to be done.

The marketing or department of the company must be very detailed oriented in this endeavor because this will be the symbol for the . It is like having the Budweiser or Goodyear blip often seen in major sports events but on a smaller scale.

Inflatables are easy to maintain. A strong and heavy base keeps it on the ground making it withstand heavy weather conditions. The person will just have to pay for the electricity that the unit uses.

The inflatable balloon will usually get some minor cuts and punctures later on. These are still able to function but this will have to be replaced if there is some major damage.

Small and medium sized companies should give this medium a try and see how this can help make the grow.

Digital Signage

Digital signage is the newest player to the world of out-of-home advertising, and has been taking over the industry with a vengeance. The term digital signage refers to screens both large and small that are used to show content and advertising. The screens are usually networked to a main content server which can usually be administered from anywhere in the world where an internet connection is available.

The benefits of digital signage are clear, and are being realized by thousands of retailers, government institutions, and educators world wide. The dynamic digital signage is eye catching, and can be used to up-sell at point-of-sale where add-on purchases might not normally occur. The digital signage also serves to modernize the retail area, making it look cutting edge.

The digital signage phenomenon has become more popular as the cost of equipment has fallen. Large plasma or LCD screens are more affordable today than ever before. The servers and PCs that are used to administer the content are also extremely affordable. This attainability has lead to explosive growth in the digital signage sector over the past two year. The sector is expected to reach new heights in 2007, and reach sales of over $1 billion US.

Because of the affordability, companies both large and small have been taking advantage. Digital signage has also become common place in hospitals, schools, post-secondary institutions, government, airports, shopping malls, and financial institutions, to name a few.

Whatever its use, there is no argument that the digital signage phenomenon is here to stay. For more information check out our websites below.
