This year, eye colors include mossy greens, shimmery bronzes, earthy warm browns and rich gold tones, and soft pastels for those smoky eyes. And there are new shades for your cheeks as well. These customized colors for fall have a classic look that picks up the trends of the season with no worries about matching your skin tones or what looks best on you. That's our specialty!
- Pamela Kiernan, Merrill Lynch - I have many clients and don’t get to speak to them as often as I would like, so I send hand written cards for as many occasions as I can think of, when the opportunity is right: A client sold his company, had a grand kid, read about them in the paper about something great, was married or promoted, or suffered a loss. These little notes, on my personal note cards, make a statement and a difference, and only take a few minutes to prepare. The client usually remembers them in a positive way, and it lets them know I think about them as people rather than just simply a client. This helps to build trust, a key factor in every lasting client relationship. Needless to say, I send every client a big, beautiful card on their birthday…..and I always throw in a chocolate bar. These go over quite well….and the client looks forward to receiving them each year. I've heard comments that it makes them feel like a kid again…..and a client looking forward to it every year to me sounds like a client who is staying for a while!

S.O.S. LLC - Cara Brook. Having trouble getting motivated to clear out the clutter in your closet, attic, basement, etc?? Pretend you’re moving! When you’re unsure about whether or not you should keep an item, as yourself: “Is it really worth it to pack the item, move it, and then unpack it?” With your “moving” mindset, you’ll have an easier time making decisions.

Studio B/Visual Communication - Bernadette Nelson. When selecting printing for your business card, shy away from thermography (raised lettering). It makes small type hard to read and projects a somewhat outdated look.
