Why is Branding SOOO important for an SMB?
17/07/09 11:46
This article was originally published at:
http://oakvillenetworking.com/blog-news-articles
We all know that small and medium sized business owners have to cut costs in order to keep overhead low and cash flow, well… flowing. But one of the most important areas can often get cut too much, and too soon, and that is the area of Marketing & Branding.
Where do I begin?
When starting out, the first step after writing a business plan, is to sit down (preferably over a delicious Starbucks!) with a graphic designer who will guide you through the process of creating and establishing your brand. When choosing a graphic designer, make sure you check out their portfolio (the pride of any artist!) to see if you gel with his or her style.
Can I go cheap?
Don’t go for the cheaper option just to save a few bucks! The old adage is true: you get what you pay for. A logo is an investment and it will stick with you through out the lifespan of your business, so make sure your final decision on colour, font and image is one you’ll like 2 years from now.
Where do I put my new logo?
Carry your new logo throughout all your marketing materials. This includes website, business cards, letterhead and envelopes. You should be proud of your logo, and like any business owner, you should plaster it over everything related to your business. This will establish your presence in the market and your brand will become more and more recognizable to potential customers.

Their product is truly delicious AND it’s all hand-packed by their team. Check them out here www.beanladies.com, or visit them at one of their upcoming shows.


Networking: friend or foe?
15/07/09 13:20
I never thought I would say this, but I just love to meet new people. Coming from a person who is afraid of people, or least has been for most of her life, this is big! The thought of sitting across a table from someone I hardly know used to terrify me so much. But as I started doing it (action brings clarity!) the terror slowly started to fade, and I realized that it was just another human being sitting across from me over the Starbucks Coffee, who had a story to tell, just like me. Once I took out the “I am a salesperson” bit, I was left with “how can I get to know them, and potentially gain a new friend?” So now when I meet people, business us usually the last thing we talk about, and once you’re friends, it comes so naturally that you should ask how you might be helpful to each other.
Suddenly networking takes on a whole new term, more like friendmaking.

Oakville Networking Group

This is the coolest nicest bunch of people to meet with on a Friday morning! Unlike most networking groups it begins at the more manageable hour of 9 a.m.! A few coffee and muffins later and you’ve made new contacts and new friends. It’s set in the cutest little hotel restaurant on Bronte Rd. in Oakville. Check it out here at:

I DO!
15/07/09 13:06
Well, we took the big leap! Yup, on May 2nd 2009 Michael and I got married, and I officially got a new name! A most beautiful wedding day it was - first breakfast with the gals at the Hilton, then makeup and hair, then the aisle. At the end of which was the most amazing man I’ve ever known... After a week in the glory of the Caribbean, we are back and loving the business we’re in more than ever.

A big thanks to Scott Brubacher!
Scott, a realtor in the Mississauga Area, specializing in Streetsville, arranged for ModGraphic to come into his office and share with his fellow agents a bit about what we do. Over pizza and slides, we chatted about our services and how we could potentially help them to gain more business while giving a professional and credible impression.
Thanks to Scott (www.scottbrubacher.com) and to Royal LePage Mississauga Realty!

BCX Mississauga Chapter
This is a really great association for small to medium business owners who rely on referrals as one of the ways to grow their business. It is basically a relationally-based networking group that has chapters all over the world. My experience so far has been a very positive one, and for a naturally shy person, this is really encouraging me to step out of my comfort zone and meet new people, and potential clients.
You can check them out at www.business-connection-exchange.ca.

No more pricey design!
12/01/09 21:19
You CAN afford it!
ModGraphic says, You can’t afford not to have it! We firmly believe that bad graphics and branding can turn away potential customers, just like wearing a suit you sewed yourself to a business meeting! In this visually driven world, why not wow your next clients with a catchy logo, great website, or even just a professional looking envelope? These small details really can make a great first impression.

Goodbye to ModLogo

The birth of a new name
Well, we had to make the difficult decision to change ModLogo to ModGraphic. Reason being that it was too limiting to have Logo in the company name, as it could potentially drive away customers. Here’s to the birth of a new name!
