Business Card of the Month – Zumba® Vanessa Mimi Hernandez (Colorado USA)

October 1, 2011

Vanessa found my Zumba® artwork portfolio on my business website when doing a google search and decided to send me an email.

I emailed Vanessa some business card info, she replied and I sent her a proof that same day, we then decided on the best image to use to promote her business, finalised her design, sent it off to print, then the cards travelled by airmail to Colorado in the USA!

Thanks heaps Vanessa, always great to work with someone so professional and switched on!

I have also designed and delivered business cards for Val of the Da ‘Ville Girlz in Fayetteville, North Carolina!

Let me tell you, I had no idea what to do for business cards, or how it worked to get one made. I just e-mailed the type of card I needed, and a photo I wanted on the card. I got one e-mail back asking questions, then sent it back, then VOILA the same day I had a lovely, professional business card tailored just for me! I could not believe how quick and wonderful it turned out, I was just amazed! You will not be disappointed in this company, Design House and Jeanette is the BEST!! She even gave me tips on my Facebook page, who does that?? Keep up the great work, you are truely talented and we are all very fortunate to benefit from your artistry!!

TRUMP in Sydney

September 23, 2011

Donald Trump, Jeanette, Sydney, Business Seminar

For three unforgettable days in September at Sydney, I had the incredible opportunity to listen to some of the world’s most inspiring and successful business minds, including Anthony Robbins, Robert Kiyosaki and DONALD TRUMP!

Talk about being on the biggest high ever!

As a motivated professional businesswoman, I believe it is extremely important to continually learn from the very best. Personal growth and ongoing self-improvement allow me to strengthen my expertise and better assist my clients in solving their business advertising challenges — helping them build confidence, increase profits and grow their client base.

Donald Trump, Jeanette, Sydney, Business SeminarI have always set ambitious goals for myself, not only to challenge my own potential, but also to inspire others to pursue their dreams. One of my biggest goals at the time was to have a photo taken with my business idol — the legendary DONALD TRUMP, then valued at SEVEN BILLION DOLLARS!

Trump was introduced to the stage by Australian Miss Universe Jennifer Hawkins.

I have always admired Trump, especially through his television series The Apprentice. To me, he represented a wise, educated, funny and highly intelligent businessman with a strong “can do” attitude. I saw him as a powerful mentor — inspiring, motivated, professional and successful. He spoke openly and honestly, was extremely family orientated, and I genuinely felt a sense of kindness in his presence.

Trump said, “I believe, get even with people, if they screw you, screw them back ten times as hard!”

Three years earlier, I had decided I would achieve my goal of having a photo taken with Trump. To begin the Law of Attraction process, I even photo shopped an image of Trump and myself together two years before the event.

After Trump finished speaking, I attended the question-and-answer session. After nudging my way through more than 150 VIP guests and security, I finally attracted Trump’s attention and bravely asked for a photo. When he agreed, I noticed he was wearing the exact same pink tie he had worn in my earlier photo-shopped image!

He looked me directly in the eye and asked whether I had enjoyed his speech, to which I honestly replied that I thoroughly had. We exchanged a few more brief comments before I made my way to the back of the room, overwhelmed with excitement and adrenaline that I had finally achieved a long-term personal goal. My knees were literally shaking!

Meeting my business idol and achieving this dream made me believe even more strongly in the Law of Attraction, the power of positivity, and the idea that absolutely anything is possible in life.

It was an amazing, thought-provoking and truly sensational experience — one of many more to come!

A special thank you to Michael Burnett from Empowernet for successfully organising such an Amazing event!!

Before the seminar, I also completed the Sydney Running Festival, running 9km across the Sydney Harbour Bridge.

Some of Trump’s memorable quotes from the event included:

–       “Be totally focused, you can’t take your eye off the ball”
–       “Rich people don’t like rich people, historically, well I don’t”
–       “I like Losers to be my friends”
–       “The harder I work the luckier I get”
–       “You can make yourself Lucky”
–       “You need passion, go against the tide”
–       “Go with your gut, go against the tide, I like that”
–       “Get even with people, if you don’t they will continue to go after you”
–       “If someone screws you, screw them back in spades!”
–       “Always get a pre-nup!”
–       “Think Big, it’s much easier”
–       “Focus on the positive”
–       “The word momentum is very important”
–       “Believe in yourself, see yourself as a one man band, see yourself as victorious, you have to think like a WINNER!”
–       “Can you take the pressure!”

Thanks again . . .  just brilliant.”

Billboards My Favourite!

August 11, 2011

You probably don’t know that a Billboard is one of the most cost effective and useful advertising tools a business can have and if you chose the right site a very affordable monthly outlay!!

It’s something that is viewable 24 / 7 (especially if you use reflective material) and your skin / creative can last for years.
It is far cheaper than paper advertising that is thrown in the bin that day!

Keep your message ‘SIMPLE’, colourful, roughly seven words, choose a great location and wait for the feedback / enquires to come in!!

Add an extension to create the WOW factor!

I’m sure yours will look as ‘HOT’ as mine which has over 7,000 cars passing it every day!!

Is it time for your business to ‘Hit the Highway’ ??

Billboard of the Month – Fertility Solutions (Sunshine Coast & Bundaberg)

July 25, 2011

“Having just recently decided to branch out into Billboard advertising I came into contact with Jeanette Maynes from Design House.   I have found Jeanette to be very efficient and reliable – going that extra mile to ensure that the ad is “eye catching”, easy to read and of a very high quality.  She was even responding to my emails over a weekend period.

To those of you who are still a little uncertain as to which creative graphic or website designer to use I would highly recommend that you choose Jeanette, you won’t regret it.”

ZIN MEMBER Louise Johnson

March 25, 2011

I teach Zumba in a number of different venues and have recently decided to expand my “independent” Zumba classes.  I decided I needed to capitalise on the fact lots of people come to my class each week in many different places and try to get them all under one roof at my own class.
To do that I almost felt I needed to create a “Louise Zumba” brand and so I turned to Jeanette.  Initially I gave her no direction other than I liked pink!  What she was able to come up with for my business has been amazing.  The suite of print products she has created are eye catching and really represent me,  I feel like looking at them feels a little bit like what one of my classes feels like.  While Jeanette will let you e-mail ideas back and forth for days on end until you are both happy I promise you won’t need it……  I squealed out loud when I saw the first draft of my Zumbatomic poster.
The final seal of approval came from Zumba Home Office themselves when we sent our work off to be checked from compliance…..they loved it!
I know these products will make a difference to my buisness and bring more people to Zumba.  And I couldn’t be happier about that.  Zumba has changed my life….Jeanettes work will help me to spread the word and change more peoples lives.
