BMW

This offer is now closed but look out for new BMW marketing material in the New Year!

With the VAT threshold increasing it is not surprising customers are seriously considering making a large purchase such as a vehicle sooner rather than later. With this in mind we are delighted to offer BMW and MINI dealerships the opportunity to publicise the increase and savings in the form of roll-up banners. These banners offer great value for money in that they are in brand colours and styling and at only £99 plus delivery they are sure to be a valuable tool in securing extra business prior to the increase.

Yellow Pages

Yellow Pages, a personal view by Tim Bigger of Abstract Creative.

Before the web, Yellow Pages was king when it came to business connections. I can clearly remember awaiting with considerable anticipation the arrival of the new book to see who has arrived and who has left. In fact, it became a rough guide as to a business’ success in that the ad usually got bigger as a company became more successful.

Of course all that has changed. We now have so many vehicles in which to be seen the poor old Yellow Pages has taken rather a back seat. JR Hartley would turn in his grave if he could see the way things have gone particularly with the massive advancements made with the web – or would he? As it happens, the hero of this piece is Yell.com the web arm of the Yellow Pages. The service is easy to use, quick and highly flexible so just because the published book version is flagging slightly there is no need to throw the baby out with the bathwater as Yell.com is the way forward for many businesses.

Advertising is effective if you do it properly. Abstract Creative specialise in producing effective advertising for all kinds of businesses in a wide range of mediums so if you would like to advertise your business give Tim Bigger a call on 01903 774419

Creative passion

I have been designing all kinds of things for 26 years now and the truth is, you never get tired of it. Of course you are sometimes at odds with your creative views and those of your client but ultimately, it is the design process itself that can give so much satisfaction. I guess this must all boil down to two words – creative passion. Those with passion in any chosen career path tend to become highly accomplished and respected within their field.

This is especially true of any of the diciplines connected to the arts. Creatives are passionate about what they do and will more often than not put in a great deat of effort to reach a pleasing conclusion to a piece of work. Ironically, this passion can also be the bane of a creative’s life in that they will never be truly happy with the end result and will always wonder if they could have produced something better. The unfortunate side of creative passion is that it will occasionally put the creative at odds with the commercial world so having the ability to temper creativity with business acumen is a valuable lesson to learn.

So looking back on the last 26 years I can truly say it has been a wild and exciting ride but ultimately it is creative passion that fuels the engine.

Would you like to benefit from my creative take on things? I would be very happy to talk with you about any project you may have, there is no cost so please feel free to give me a call on 01903 774419.

BBC Weather

For those of us old enough to remember, graphically speaking, weather forecasting in the 60’s and even the 70’s was a bizarre and rather amateurish affair. Hoops of magnetic highs and lows festooned the weather board punctuated with the odd grey cloud or two, sometimes accompanied with half a sun peeping from behind a reassuring cloud.

Today however is a very different picture – literally. Thanks to the huge advances in computer graphics and green screen technology, we are able to now see detailed maps of the country, cloud cover and animated sea conditions all in crisp colour.

This technological advancement is not just limited to television, virtually all areas of the media have embraced new capabilities and the standard of visual representation is now extremely high. However, still one fundamental principle will always be key – the idea. No matter how technologically advanced the execution, if the idea is weak, the end result will be also which means good ideas must be cultivated in the creative mind and allowed to flourish.

Abstract Creative strongly subscribe to this philosophy and always strive to create consistently well thought out, idea led designs for clients. In real terms, why settle for poor when you can have more?

Please call Abstract on 01903 774419 for an informal chat to see how we can help, we are confident you won’t be disappointed – just take a look at our testimonial page!

Asda

Supermarket giant Asda, acquisition of even bigger giant Wal-Mart have worked very hard to create and maintain their brand image especially during the economic downturn.

Interestingly enough, the downturn has actually given their marketing team an overwhelming amount of ammunition in the battle to be the cheapest, a battle chiefly fought between three combatants; Tesco, Asda and Morrisons. Interestingly, Tesco had an about turn in their strategy. Earlier on they were hard on the heels of Sainsburys who leaned towards quality not price but Tesco had a legacy of being price driven which meant they were never really going to convince their market of the quality advantage. Salvation came when Asda, the Leeds based chain started expanding wildly and all of a sudden Tesco abandoned flirting with quality and went full steam ahead soley basing their strategy on price.

We now have the situation where Tesco and Asda are head to head with Morrisons, another northern based chain and who will come out on top remains to be seen. Certainly the enormous efforts being put into television advertising will pay off in the long run as the downturn drags on.

Brand development can be facinating as a story unfolds. It must be remembered however, every business has its own brand and indeed brand values. Most businesses would like a good reputation or supply top quality goods or services so that when a customer sees their product or logo they are reassured that they have made the right choice. It is exactly the same for businesses large or small, the brand is everything as it speaks for you.

We at Abstract Creative are always mindful of the importance of the brand, that’s why when we create a new identity for a business we ensure we understand the ideology behind the name. We always try to acertain what values and goals the company has and most importantly, how the business sees itself.

If you would like to take advantage of the Abstract treatment when it comes to your brand, call us today on 01903 774419

BBC News

BBC News presentation has always been a graphically rich experience and with vast improvement of computer generated imagery the process has become a highly polished affair.

This is especially true of some of the support graphics found on news items that require data or statistics which often will be overlayed onto suitable imagery creating wholly unified pieces. Colour is an important aspect in this process and one that is dealt with really well by the designers at the BBC who are often under considerable pressure to create interesting and poinient graphics in a very short space of time, still – necessity is the mother of invention or more accurately, design.

If you would like outstanding graphics created for your business for any promotional campaign you have forthcoming, please call Tim on 01903 774419 Now!

London Underground

I took my children up to the museums over the Bank holiday weekend and took the tube as I usually do. I always take an interest in the advertising festooned in the underground system because it is such a snapshot of now and in some cases, a glimpse of tomorrow. I was surprised to see for the first time some of the giant LED displays on the far side of the tunnels tempting me with the usual products only this time with lifelike colour and something more – movement.

The truth is, Londoners have enjoyed this form of advertising since 2007 and to them it is quite old hat. On the other hand, to advertisers it gives a whole new dimension to the ‘global campaign’. Now, advertisers can reinforce their message across a wider variety of media and reach audiences in a far more effective way.

If you would like to advertise your products or services on the Underground or anywhere else for that matter, contact Abstract Creative on 01903 774419 today.

Brochure design in Littlehampton

If you are thinking about how to get across the main thrust of your business, a brochure may be just the thing. Brochures come in all shapes and sizes which means you can control how much you spend on it. Of course, it doesn’t have to be a standard A4 in size, any cost effective dimension should be weighed up especially if you are considering posting them to potential leads.

Brochures are a highly effective way to attract new clients and it is worth remembering it may be the initial contact a prospective client has so creating the right impression is vital.

Abstract Creative have been designing attractive, effective brochures for over 25 years so knowing what works and what doesn’t comes as second nature to us. If you would like to benefit from what we know, please give us a call on 01903 774419 for an informal chat.
