Company Branding: Why the Little Extras Are Important

When was the last time you received something in the mail that wasn't a bill or an ad for Pizza Hut? Sorry, but Christmas/birthday/holiday cards don't count. You don't remember? You're not alone. If you're like most of us, the majority of your correspondence, whether  personal or professional, is done electronically. 7 year olds wield iPhones with efficiency rivaling that of any CEO, while my nearly 80 year old father isn't at all shy about firing off multiple text messages to well, everyo... read more!
