We won a PACE award! Those of you who've been to the Tria office know our walls are decorated with years of Addys, Pace and Craftsman awards. We love the fact that our clients bring us their projects, and let us work our creative mastery so that we can help them achieve such successes. This year's PACE Crystal Award from the Central Michigan Chapter of the Public Relations Society of America – the Chapter’s highest honor from the Public Relations Society of America – for the Lansing School District Advertorial series is no exception.

Designed for Kolt & Serkaian Communications of Okemos on behalf of the Lansing School District, the campaign showcased the Lansing School District’s many programs and initiatives that set it apart from other area school districts, and also highlighted the accomplishments of the Lansing School District’s current and past students, teachers and parents.

"Tria Design & Marketing did a wonderful job in helping us communicate our successes and goals to the public," said Mark Mayes, Supervisor of Public Information and Marketing for the Lansing School District. "We needed to make our message stand out, and they delivered."

If you haven't requested your binder, it features Inspirations — client case studies that outline solutions to their unique marketing challenges. It also features a set of Tria Marketing tips on a variety of subjects—quick reads that you can refer to again and again. So, if you'd like to request a binder, click here.

The NEW Tria web site is up. (Okay, so this e-mail newsletter is a tad marketing-heavy this month. But we've got so many new things on the way, we just have to share them with you!) Our new Tria web site is up and running. You can view our fabulous new interactive portfolio, designed and programmed by Tria's Flash genius, Troy Miller. Also, on the site, you can request copies of our Tria Resource materials (if you do not want to get them in the Tria Resource Binder format), and receive them in pdf format.

Quick Tip to Remember:
All marketing and advertising expenses are 100% tax deductible, AND they help you sell more to your existing and future customers. September is an ideal time to gear up for the fall. So, stop giving valuable profits to Uncle Sam to spend foolishly, and instead, use them to build your business this year.

Don’t forget, every month we give you great downloadable resources, like "Why Hire a Creative Supplier," "How to get Great Work out of your Creative Supplier," and our famous "Marketing Projects: Planning & Pricing Guide" which helps you schedule and budget print and web projects. The first two are from an independent Boston advisory company. The third we've developed over a decade or more of working on projects with clients.
