Going green

With green having been all but forgotten in this economic downturn, lets hope that it isn't all forgotten on the upswing. We can continue to drive this economy by espousing the green virtues and help leave this planet a better place for our children (sound familiar all you aging boomers?)

In our effort to go green we will highlight here on our blog, some of the things we are doing to leave this planet a better place for our kids.

One of these things is our love of Velcro. We are a big fan of Velcro for many reasons. Not only do they save us from the arduous tasks of shoe tying, but the folks over at Velcro have been busy coming up with new applications for their hook and loop.

One of these ingenious ideas is as a reusable zip tie. Velcro zip ties are great. We never had enough zip ties around when you need them, and I always hated having to waste one every time someone asked for a new monitor or to move their keyboard. The velcro zip ties were the perfect solution.

We are happy to do away with throw away zip ties and switch to the velcro brand. When we were going through our big move, we needed a solution for our cable organization that was as green as could be and worked for our organizational needs. Velcro answered the call for our needs in grand fashion!

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.
