Prova has gotten some great exposure recently. Honolulu's favorite newspaper wrote about how Prova taps graphic talent online.

One for a custom logo design, & one for a DVD cover design. We're giving $550 for the best designs. If you've got a creative design, head on over to Prova & show these clients what you've got.
If you're an entrepreneur, you might find Entreprecouragement a great resource for getting motivated when it seems like no one else is helping you.

Saw on Duct Tape Marketing last weekend that John happened upon Prova & had a great review to post. Maybe our design community can return the favor with a free design contest?
Thanks John. If you haven't checked out Duct Tape Marketing, do it now.
7 Tips For Gaining an Edge During a Recession
Posted by Prova
According to research, businesses that advertise in a recession usually come out of it ahead of their competitors who cut advertising. It is important to stay visible and not rely solely on your current customer base to make it through the slow times. If there is no money available for advertising, there are many resources to keep your business visible but you must be creative.
The Face of Your Church

If you were selling your house, your agent would go to great lengths to make sure it looked amazing from the outside. Its curb appeal is important for an obvious reason. When a potential buyer rounds the corner and sees your house, what will be their first impression? Will they be looking at a dull building with hanging gutters, brown spots in the otherwise sparse landscape, and dingy windows? A poor first impression based on the outside of your house would be hard to overcome even if the inside was a granite filled paradise.
New Big Red Commercial
Posted by Prova
If you've been paying attention to commercials lately, you might remember Verizon's latest commercial & how it seemed oddly familiar.
[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EkWKdJF7Md0]
If you can't put your finger on it, it's a parody of an old "Big Red Chewing Gum" commercial. Verizon does a great job giving their commercial the same feeling & jingle replacing lines like, "So kiss a little longer, stay close a little longer," with "So browse the web much better, update facebook pages better." In the 80s-90s this was the theme of every Big Red Gum commercial.

Of course it brings up the question, does it differentiate Verizon from the other cell phone companies touting "Best 3G coverage?" AT&T's lackluster response to previous challenges to "Best 3G Coverage" was to hire an actor to list [and throw postcards to] several large cities AT&T has at least 1 tower in. -Not convincing.
Sprint's response is to boast about being the Nation's only 4G network. Without any 4G phones, this isn't too helpful now. However, once 4g phones begin to show up, Sprint may cash in on their advanced branding.
After watching Verizon's Big Red commercial, can you tell me what they say makes them better?
