| Using Your Past to Promote Your Future |
| For years, our books have revealed the human stories behind
successful organizations, stories that seldom find their way
into standard business histories. We will carefully weave
these people and events into the history of your industry, your community,
and our nation. The result will be a unique book of local
history for your communities and a valuable, perpetual
marketing tool for you. Written in an interesting, informative, and popular style, our books are read by people of all interests and ages. Readers will come away with a solid knowledge of local history. Plus, they will gain a lasting appreciation of your organization’s past, knowledge of its current products and services, and confidence in its future |
| Inspire Your Staff and Your Customers |
| Readers will discover that your founders and past leaders are more than stoic images hanging on the board room wall. They will see them as real people, with hometown roots and families – people who made their own hopes and dreams into reality through hard work, determination and caring. People your readers can and will come to admire. |
Your History - A Potent Marketing Tool |
It’s one that can never be matched – or bettered – by your competitors. That’s because their traditional customers will have read your book and may already be yours |
| Standard Advertising: Costly and Repetitive |
| Today’s multi-media advertising is expensive and requires constant revamping by your staff and a pricey outside agency. Advertising claims are always suspect, and their real impact is debatable and fleeting. When was the last time you threw out a book? Any book. Books are credible, permanent and kept handy, particularly those dealing with local history. People will be referring to your book often for years to come. And every time they do, they will be re-reading your organization’s success story |
| Your History Becomes Community History |
| We don’t pretend to write definitive local histories any more than we promise to use every fact and figure about your organization. Rather, we blend your success into the success of the community, merging them forever in the readers’ minds and memories. |
| Strengthen Your Image and Your Profits |
| Whether your organization is a for-profit or a not-for-profit organization, telling your story creates civic pride, builds community loyalty, generates new business, and offers lots of great opportunities to increase your community presence. The final chapter promotes and illustrates your current facilities, products and services and points confidently to a successful future. |
| In hard- or soft-cover, the book’s uses are truly unlimited. Other clients have used their books effectively to mark: |
• Milestone anniversaries
|
| Good Books Take Inspiration Great Books Take Time |
| Typically, our archival and external research, writing and editing, photography, design, and prepress works take from 8 to 14 months. If you need your book published to coincide with a special anniversary or event coming up within the next two years, we must begin soon. |
| The true, documented story of your organization and its vital role in your community – past, present, and future – really should be told. Let us help you tell it well. |
| It’s Time to Make Some History of Your Own. |
