Created Hand-Crafted Invitatioins

Mask included in A7 Mailer

Spanish and English versions

Challenges:Let’s take the old tradition of having a big party for a 15 year old Spanish girl and tie it into a Cirque du Soliel theme. That’s what we did. The event planner was going to have theatrical entertainment, reminescent of Cirque du Soliel. We wanted guests to come to the party of the year... hence, add a little mystery to the party invitation - send a mask in a 3D mailer. They also need 135 invites to be in English and 35 to be in Spanish since they were being sent to Mexican relatives ... Ole!

Success:They loved the concept. From the hand-ap-plied pearl and vellum insert, to the gold and black mask... It was a lot of designing, hand cutting, packing and shipping but overall - it was a grand ball and most of the invited guests showed up to the party.

Marketing concepts

Direct mail campaign

Email campaign

Design, layout, production

Challenges:This client was a manufacturer that had excess capacity on thier manufacturing floor, so they were venturing into new products. They were offering their manufacturing floor space to other companies and wanted to be portrayed as the “heros” to help-ing with capacity overload. We helped launch the “keep your cool” campaign using direct mail and email blasts.

Success:The client had a few internal struggles between teams. They wanted to be portrayed as “super heros” in helping companies keep their cool under stress. With the product launch we were able to as-sist them with multiple concepts, production, print-ing and mailing support. They kept their cool and expanded their bottom line.

Client: Electronic Data Systems - Check 21

Project Included:

Marketing support

Event support, Fulfillment

CD reproduction

Source packaging

Challenges:The new laws around check processing were confusing to many banks. EDS wanted to develop a campaign that made the con-versation around the new regulations a little easier to digest. The Trail Guide concept was the winner. Working in conjunction with an outside creative, we were able to project manage the Flash development, packaging, CD duplication.

Success:Overall, the sales force was able to take the content developed and showcase the Check 21 offering at tradeshows, sales calls and the EDS Marketing Center. It was helpful that the terminology of the Sarbanes Oxley compliance was put into “manageable” bites of information and portrayed in an interesting concept.

Challenges:Tonti Properties was the first Energy Star rated com-munity in North Texas. Their entire theme and com-munity was built around the “green living” concept. From the trash recepticals to the printing of the brochure we had to make sure that what ever we designed we tied into the theme of “green” in every aspect - from ink to paper to signage materials.

Success:Our brochure was nomincated for the coveted Mc-Sam Award for Multi-family Communities in 2009. The client won the “Community of the Year” at McSam.Our client loved the new logo and elements of the brand. The particularly liked our organic cover de-sign. We were able to incorporate their signature 3-D floorplans. Our brand helped them not only win the award, but resell the property in 2010.

Presenatation Support

Banners & Signage

Challenges:HUD contracted with my client for over 20 differ-ent events during the course of 2011 and the Going Green event was an important mandate for the housing sector. We needed to support the initiative and communicate to the prospective attendees the importance of the coming changes as well as pro-vide top notch design representing HUD. The event was a rush, rush, hurry and get done - but the client actually had to change the event date from April 2011 to July 2011.

Success:We were able to provide a quality “green theme” that enhanced the appeal to the prospective at-tendees - which was a coordinated effort for all.

mEnvironmentalChallenge:The Oklahoma National Guard wanted to increase their recruiting centers activity. To engage new recruits they decided to enhance and provide brand consistency to eight recruiting centers across Oklahoma.

Solution:Valiant Design+Marketing responded to the proposal posted on the GSA eBuy and won the bid. We met with the small team on-site and traveled to the eight individual centers. Understanding the National Guard corporate branding campaign was essential to arriv-ing at the best solution. We were given photographic assets from approved campaigns and were asked to design and redeploy the assets with consistent messag-ing and theming.

Results:Today the Oklahoma Army National Guard has a consistent brand across eight of their recruiting centers. Recruitment Officers are able to engage prospective recruits and promote the brand. The numbers are roll-ing in. Be all that you can be. “Always ready. Always there.” Go National Guard.
