OFBiz Brochures, Cards, General Marketing

David E Jones-2

HotWax Media (the guys who did the recent logo revision) have completed some brochures for Apache OFBiz, as well as some business cards for the project.

You can see them here:

They are working on a revision of the tri-fold brochure that can be effectively cropped and printed on a normal color laser printer, but still look good with professional to-the-edge printing. The current ones are intended to to-the-edge printing.

For the upcoming OSCON show I'd like to do professional printing for the brochures the same as I have done for the business cards. The cards were $200 for 2000 (so I have plenty if anyone wants some, paying for the printing costs of course).

The brochures are quite a bit more expensive, especially on a shorter time frame... I am planning right now on printing them on my color laser and then having them folded somewhere, and only doing ~200 of them. Having 250 professionally printed by the end of the week would cost about $600. For larger quantities are longer times it is cheaper. For the same turn around time for 2000 it would cost about $900. If there is someone in the Portland area we could ship these to instead of shipping them to Utah before I start driving to Portland it gives us a couple of extra days and we could get the prices down to $500 and $700. If we had more time with this same place (like 2 full weeks...) the prices come down to around $350 (for 250) and $500 (for 2000).

So, anyway, if someone is interested in helping with OFBiz marketing expenses it would help a lot and we could do professional printing for the upcoming OSCON show. If so, please contact me ASAP, I pretty much have to decide tomorrow or it's too late for professional printing.

Also, looking out a bit further: we could print a lot of these and share the cost among multiple companies and then also split the brochures for use in complementing our own marketing materials and to help promote the project at events like OSCON, ApacheCON, and dozens of other potential conferences we can (and hopefully will) be attending in the near future.

Thanks!
