Presentation Folders

MedPro Raleigh contacted Castle Designs to design a full presentation folder with insert sheets. Their needs required 5 different tech sheets. We designed the sheets with a 45 degree cut on the top right corner that progressively got deeper. This allowed the titles of all 5 sheets to be visible. The full color presentation folder was designed to match their exist marketing material. Our graphic design team designed several different folders. The customer was so impressed with the layouts that they had two different designs printed for different needs.

What is good graphic design worth?

Graphic Design in Raleigh – want is it really worth?

Can quality graphic design help the your sales? The answer is Yes!

Is it worth paying a fair price for great graphic design or should go for the cheapest option I can find on CraigsList?
Think about. How much is a sale worth to your firm. How much is a new client and an ongoing relationship with them worth to your firm? If your sales increase by 25%, 30%, 35% or more, is it really worth doing it on the cheap?

A well designed brochure can tell a story and help close a deal. A badly designed one can do the exact opposite.

Website Design Raleigh – Domains

admin — Thu, 21 Jul 2011 21:13:39 +0000

So you are ready to have a website designed and built. First thing you will need is a domain. Domain is the address people type in to see your website i.e. www.WebsitesAndBrochures.com. The main thing to consider is how easy is your domain to remember and type into a browser? If you have to write the domain down to remember it how is anyone else going to? I had a painter I built a website for who wanted his name to be the domain. His name is Robert Gurrieri. There was no way anyone could look at his truck and remember www.robertgurrieri.com when driving down the street. We are in the NC area so we selected NCHomePainters.com, this is something you can remember and also spell correctly. Remember don’t get overly creative, keep it simple. Also, when ever possible stick with a .com, if not go for a .net.

Are you ready for new growth

admin — Wed, 20 Jul 2011 01:26:56 +0000

We all know the economy is slow and has been through hard times. I am not a CPA and do not have a crystal ball but one thing we do know (from history) is after a great recession comes a boom. Does your firm have the marketing tools (website, full color corporate brochures…etc) to take advantage of the boom as soon as it hits.

If you are saying we need to wait until we see recovery you will be too late — your competition will grab up all the new customers! Why wait? You need the tools in your hands ready to strike as soon as possible.

You have a website but it just is not generating leads?

admin — Wed, 20 Jul 2011 01:08:44 +0000

OK, you did what you are meant to do, you had a website built two years ago. You went live and then sat back to wait for ALL these leads to start calling — you got one or two calls but nothing like you had hoped! Sound familiar?

The reality is it’s not that simple — if it was Castle Design would not be in business. Every site needs to have SEO to get seen by Google. Then it needs to be pleasing to visitors to look at, plus tell the right story for your audience. But, most of all it needs to be unique.

Think about it: If you want to go to Disney World, other amusement parks simply won’t do. They might have some crazy rides, good food, and even a lower ticket price, but they don’t offer the same experience. When you want that experience, there’s no alternative: it’s Disney World or nothing. Castle Design of Raleigh, seeks to position you as the Disney World of your industry.

Are your brochures just thrown away?

admin — Wed, 20 Jul 2011 00:49:57 +0000

Every wanted a full color brochure but want something just a little different? If you typically see 8.5″ x 11″ brochures in your industry try something a little different — how about a square 8.5″ x 8..5″. The cost is going to be the same to print but the look and feel is going to be something that stands out.
