CASE
STUDY
Need
Previous holiday cards have been our chance to have a little fun in the Christmas spirit, but this down economy time required something a bit more direct (with still some "tounge-in-cheek").
Solution
When times are down, sometimes your best friends are"hope" and "perverance". We all remember what it was like to start a business or a new job - so the 2 words above are fitting. Taking that seedling of a new growth and nurturing it into something beyond your expectations. Now how does one get that Christmas ornament up on that big tree of potential?
