Just for example below, but you can see more on our site.
DID YOU KNOW:
1. you can save up to 30% your Voice and Data plans?
a. 3 weeks vacation and a $11,000 data bill. Be educated.
2. you can save approximately $7000 a year in efficiency costs?
a. Over an hour a day!
3. that you can learn to troubleshoot your own BlackBerry issues?
4. there are over 40 HOT KEYS?
5. you can make FREE local within Canada?
6. you can take notes while on the phone and then forward them to someone?

and much much more.

I'm interested in participating, but I do have a couple questions.
1. Is this a one-side only design?
2. Regarding the files you have provided: your logo, banner, etc. Do you have them as hi-res, print ready files? Do you have your logo in a vector format?

I'll see if I can come up with something tonight/tomorrow.
Thankyou kindly,
Kimber

I am not sure with the terms vector and high res. Though I do know what high res is I am not sure how to tell which one is what you need. Here are a few more. Let me know if these aren't it!::weep:

I have some file with psd extension but can't seem to upload here.

Hi there! :)

I'm thinking of entering, but I'm wondering what exact text you want on this sell sheet and if there is a headline or theme you're going for?

Thanks,
Stephanie

The general text is in my initial info and I am knew at this, so any creative flare on what you read that will get my clients interest is all good. You don't know what you don't know is my tag line.

Hi there,
Sorry to leave you dangling.
Thankyou kindly, for posting your logo. The EPS files were the vector files I was looking for. :)

Please accept this as my idea for your sell sheet.
Althought the image is a rough composite, should you choose to work with me, I intend to make the dollar signs more in line with the grey and burgundy of the rest of the brochure -- so everyhting looks like it "fits".

The watermarks that are currently in the images also will not be there in the final file.

I was going for a clean, uncluttered look. Neat, succinct, and to the point. Sort of like your services -- showing the client how to go from "A to B", with the least amount of airtime, and saving money.

I will wait for your feedback.
Thankyou kindly,
Kimber

Thanks for the submission.

LOVE the bottom, that is perfect. (I might adjust the words but the look is great)

I like the "idea" of the money coming out but looks kind of cartoonish. Can it look different? Maybe it is the green.....Not sure. I think it gives them a quick visual of money going out.


I am not sure about the........periods.....and the font in Did you know, can I see it differently? Thanks so much. Awesome start!

To all designers...a few changes after we had some surveys back from our clients. Can you change the wording on below:

You can delete multiple messages?
You can make FREE calls when travelling in Canada?
You can talk on the phone while checking your calendar or address book?
You can use a code to populate words? i.e. typing “sc” would type “Smith and Company”
You can save 1 HOUR a day?
You can save up to 30% on your cell phone bill?
That there are over 40 HOT KEYS?
You can schedule 80% FASTER with Calendar “Quick Scheduling”

BlackBerry Training should be prominent somewhere as I am not sure everyone would know what this SELL sheet for at first glance.

Under Videos it should say this instead – View 90 short “how-to” videos on your BlackBerry or PC.

“You don’t know what you don’t know” should be consistent with how it is on our site www.swirlsolutions.com at the top, if possible.

www.SwirlSolutions.com should be like that, capital s

Thank you :)

Thankyou kindly, for extending your deadline.

Again, the image is a rough composite. Should you choose this design, the image will be high-resolution, without the watermark.

I was going for the impression that participating in your training course, saves you money -- with the money returning to your Blackberry (savings), instead of flying away from it.

I have also changed the texts per your posts.

Please advise.

Thanks...I 'think" I like this better. Can you use a sans serif font?

Also, can't use the actual BlackBerry logo I don't think, so just the words BlackBerry Training.

Hello,
Please accept this revision.
I have replaced the BlackBerry logo, with type, and added an "official seal"-type graphic to the "BlackBerry Training".

Please advise.

Hello,
Certainly. This is the first design using your Help photo. I will post a couple variations, following.

One concern that I do have is the quality of the photo for print.

The actual size of the photo you have posted is: 1.552" x 2.646" @ 96dpi. Typically, the resolution for images for print is 300dpi. I have used the photo at a size of approx. 4" x 6" (a bit smaller). The photo you have provided doesn't have enough pixel information to be used at this size, for print.

Can you provide this image at a higher resolution, and larger size?

Aside from that, please advise.
Thankyou kindly,
Kimber

This is basically the same design, with slightly different positioning of the elements.

Please advise.

I think the help picture is too large, can it be made smaller?

Yes it can.
I will change it tonight, and repost.

Thanks....I will try and find a better res. But I still think it is too big. Can you shrink it?

cre8or
12-04-2009, 10:03 PM
Hi there,
I've made the image smaller. :) If you are able to find a higher resolution version of this photo -- it would be better for the final print project.

Please advise.

Hi we are just making our final decision and my partner would like to see the text on the left and the help on the right. Just reversed. Can you do?

Thanks so much for your efforts...oh can you add in email and phone.

Hello :)

Here are the revisions you have requested. I agree with Kimber, a higher res version of this photo would be better for the final print. I'm not sure where your printing them, at home or a printer. You may want to print these out at home now, to see what the picture looks like, just to confirm your okay with the picture quality. I made the phone pic slightly smaller in this version to make it a little less pixelated.

Thanks,
Stephanie

I do have a better resolution picture but it is over the size capacity that they allow here. So once decided can send.

Can a few more changes be made? My friend looked at it and made these changes so added her pdf. Note, I prefer the text on the left but I discussed with her before the change.

Verbally this is it:

1.Can you move the "you don't know...." to Underneath the Swirl Solutions logo?
2. Url Larger
3. BlackBerry Training in Grey
4. In the RED Circle can you change the text to: Technical Training made fun!

Thanks and appreciate the flip of words and text, like it better!

Per attached pdf.

I want to thank all submission, trust me when I say we agonized over which one, as they were all so great!

We decided to go with cre8or #35 and a heartfelt thanks to everyone!

Cre8or, can I send you the file for the high res image and have some slight wording changes too.

Thanks.
