Curse of the Jersey...   Message List

Re: [bigfootmtb] Re: Curse of the Jersey...

they won't be asking us to produce their advertising for sure, anyone worth anything wants to know what represents them is up to scratch and seeing as they are in the printing biz, I imagine they do it all in-house anyway.
so long as we keep our end of the bargain and get them some publicity, can't see any probs. bit of a deal actually as you tend to wonder around the trade stands anyway.
 
now where's my flyer design... anyone fancy putting my..........lol

Better be supplied by them otherwise not much is happening :-)

One week delivery for £25 is pretty far fetched as it is; all
companies pad their postage something chronic - although on-line
retailers of specs are 100% honest and trustworthy ;-)
