Big things and exciting news

Bux-Mont Awards will be closing for two weeks beginning June 27 reopening Monday July 13th. If you should have a need for recognition services in that time, please call 215.257.5432 or email help!@buxmontawards.com and we will try are hardest to accommodate you. Why are you closing for two whole weeks?!?

Well a number of reasons really. Bux-Mont Awards staff works very hard throughout the year to honor our recognition obligations. Some of our customers memories lapse from time to time, yet they still need their awards for their big sales event, and we must provide those awards to maintain our name and to show you all we really do care. We always get you in (thus far) but we have earned a break. Therefore, the week of July 4th we are taking a vacation to spend some quality time with the family in the Outer Banks. Some of our extended family (our coworkers) are planning vacations at this time as well, and there are some others who will still be doing some prep work.

I know what you are thinking, and you are right, I did say that we are going to be closing the week of the 27th and taking vacation beginning on the 4th, and the reason for this is great!

We are taking the first week we are closed and moving our production facilities into a new location. The trophy/awards showroom will remain where it is, diagonally across the st. from the Washington House in the odd fellows building at 201 N Main Street. It is the production part of our business that will be moving. Everyone will continue to come to 201 N Main St. to order there awards. In this respect not much will change.

However we are going to be changing. Our production area, or where we make the trophies and plaques, is going to move across the bank parking lot to the other corner of the block. This space, the old Baum House, is going to be where our awards are made. They built on a big addition to the back end of this space to create an expanded work area so that Bux-Mont Awards can continue with it's mission of providing quality recognition services to the Bucks,Montgomery, and surrounding counties!

This space we are moving into provides the additional benefit of increasing our retail space. With a newly renovated showroom redesigned to capture the old time feeling of the original building while at the same time incorporating state of the art lighting and temperature systems Bux-Mont Awards is pleased to announce the soon to be coming of The Other Corner personalized gifts and apparel. As a division of Bux-Mont Awards, The Other Corner will expand upon the great personalized gifts we offer that not many of you know exist. Think things remembered in the mall combined with the cart that sells pictures on mugs mousepads and more. We can put pictures on a number of products to personalize the perfect gifts for a number of occassions.

The focus will be on personalized gifts for the graduate, religious gifts, and the animal lover in all of us. A new website is in the works along with a new blog to help our customers understand how the Other Corner can help them!

We are excited to get everything moved and into our new space, look for more information about the other corner as we continue to get our production space sorted out, and we start to prepare the showroom at The Other Corner.

We have a opening planned for the Annual Gallery of the Arts in Sellersville here in September. We look forward to sharing more news with you as it comes! Let us know what you think in the comments!

November means...

I know, I know, I don't want to think about the upcoming Thanksgiving holiday let alone Christmas. With these tumultuous times we are dealing with and the massive amount of change being undertaken, let's show this world that we can let the Phillies pick us up. Please visit our Sellersville store to see the World Champion Phillies Ornaments on display and for sale. These commemorative ornaments include pictures taken at the Game 5 World Series Clincher against the Ray and those Phillies. There is no better tree ornament this holiday season.

AFL Seasons Over, but there is still Pro Indoor Football to be played!

The US Indoor Football League , or USIFL is a Professional Indoor Football League whose goal is to improve upon the industries "Thug" reputation and provide a high quality of play, performance and entertainment at a fair price. Providing true, family-friendly entertainment, the USIFL is reaching new heights with more teams and more excitement. The Lehigh Valley Outlawz are looking to establish themselves moreso since they are freshman to this league. With the Arena Football League season over before it begins, the UNIFL is the ONLY indoor league which will embrace former AFL players The 2009 season kicks off with the NE Surge at Lehigh Valley Outlawz on March 22 in a fully televised contest. Being thankful the Soul won it all in the AFL last year and sad that we won't be able to see them try to repeat this season, I am excited to take the family to a couple of inexpensive nights out in the Lehigh Valley. The drive from Bucks County isn't as long as the ride to Phi...

Always learning

While some were consolidating to maintain their bottom lines and stay afloat in the recent tumultuous economic conditions we tried investing.  And while we didn't have much money to invest, our bank (with the gracious help of the Small Business Administration), thought enough of our business and our goals to fund an acquisition of a retiring engravers business in Lansdale. At the same time we are investing in knowledge.  We joined a promotional products trade association that enables us to receive discounts on many promotional products which is savings we are passing along to you.  They have webinars, online sales tools and much more available to those interested in using promotional products. We also have our web promotional products search engine at www.promopros.com   and will be offering tips for creative uses of promotional products here on this blog.
