BYD at The Michigan State University Annual Apparel & Promotional Product Vendor Fair

October 15, 2024

Last Thursday, we had the pleasure of attending the Michigan State University Annual Apparel & Promotional Product Vendor Fair, and what a day it was! From reconnecting with familiar faces to meeting new people from all corners of campus, we felt right at home among the Spartans. After all, Matt is a Spartan Alumni. The turnout was incredible, and we’re grateful for everyone who stopped by our booth to check out what we offer.


Some of the biggest hits of the day were our full-color hair ties, embroidered key tags, and the many options of dye-sublimated apparel. Our custom stickers flew off the table, and the Tide To-Go Pens were an unexpected favorite—because, let’s face it, who doesn’t need a quick fix for spills? We also saw a lot of interest in our challenge coins, which sparked great conversations with campus clubs and departments looking for unique ways to commemorate their achievements.


We’re thrilled with how the day turned out and excited about the new connections we made. It was wonderful to showcase what Behind Your Design can do, and as an MSU alum, it’s always special to return to campus and contribute to this vibrant community.



Thank you to everyone who stopped by to say hello and learn more about our services. We’re excited about the opportunities ahead and look forward to collaborating with many of you in the future!

Bringing Detroit’s Iconic Beverage Distributor to Life: Our Work with Eastown Distributors We recently had the pleasure of partnering with Eastown Distributors, a multi-generational, family-owned business with deep roots in Detroit’s history, on a brand-new website and photoshoot. Our goal was to showcase not only their products but also the legacy and reach of this iconic local company. The photoshoot started at sunrise in downtown Detroit, capturing some of the city’s most prominent locations that Eastown proudly delivers to, including Comerica Park, Fox Theatre, and Ford Field. These early-morning shots highlighted Eastown’s presence in the heart of the city and set the stage for a story that connects the brand to Detroit itself. We also ventured into everyday business operations, photographing merchandisers as they stocked shelves at grocery stores, and visiting independent retailers and neighborhood pubs to show Eastown products in action. This mix of iconic landmarks and real-world environments brought a sense of authenticity to the campaign, illustrating the company’s reach and dedication to its customers. On the digital side, the new website features a BrandFinder tool, making it easy for users to discover which brands Eastown distributes and where to find their favorite beverages. This user-friendly feature ensures that fans of Eastown’s products can quickly locate them, whether at local pubs, grocery stores, or specialty retailers. Working with Eastown was exciting because it allowed us to highlight both the people and the places that make the company such a vital part of Detroit’s beverage landscape. From family legacy to modern operations, this project celebrates everything that makes Eastown Distributors unique, and we’re proud to have brought their story to life online and through photography.

Elevating the Tanglewood Brand At Behind Your Design, we believe good design should do more than just look pretty - it should connect, inform, and support the people it's made for. That’s why partnering with Tanglewood Assisted Living has been such a meaningful project for our team. As a trusted support system for families navigating Alzheimer’s and dementia care, Tanglewood Assisted Living sought refreshed branding that reflected clarity, compassion, and consistency.
