Custom Publications Made Just For You!
Peabody Insurance Agency teamed up with us to build their annual magazine publication. They use these as part of their marketing plan to bring awareness to their clients about all the different aspects of their company.
Custom publications can be a valuable tool in your marketing strategy for several reasons:
- Tailored Content: Custom publications are designed specifically for your target audience. You can create content that speaks directly to their interests, needs, and pain points. When your content resonates with your audience, it's more likely to engage and convert them.
- Brand Authority: Custom publications allow you to showcase your expertise and thought leadership in your industry. By consistently delivering high-quality, informative content, you establish your brand as a trusted source of information, boosting your credibility and authority.
- Differentiation: In a crowded marketplace, custom publications help your brand stand out. It sets you apart from competitors who might rely on generic, one-size-fits-all marketing materials. A custom publication demonstrates your commitment to going the extra mile for your customers.
- Engagement: Quality content can drive engagement and build stronger relationships with your audience. Whether it's a magazine, newsletter, or other content type, if it's well-crafted and provides value, it can encourage readers to stay connected with your brand.
- Nurturing Leads: Custom publications can be an excellent tool for lead nurturing. By providing valuable content over time, you can move potential customers through the sales funnel, turning leads into loyal customers.
- Personalization: Personalization is a key trend in marketing. Custom publications enable you to tailor content to individual preferences, behavior, and demographics, further enhancing the relevance and impact of your marketing efforts.
- Long-Term Impact: Custom publications often have a longer shelf life than other forms of content. A well-produced magazine, for example, can sit on someone's coffee table for months, providing ongoing exposure and reinforcement of your brand message.
- Tangibility: Physical custom publications, such as brochures, magazines, or catalogs, provide a tangible and memorable experience for your audience. People often remember what they can touch and hold, enhancing brand recall.
- Data Collection: Custom publications can also be a source of data collection. You can track reader engagement and responses to various content pieces, helping you refine your marketing strategies and better understand your audience.
- Multi-Channel Marketing: Custom publications can be used across various marketing channels. You can repurpose content from your custom publication for your website, social media, email marketing, and more, maximizing its reach and impact.
However, it's important to note that the effectiveness of custom publications depends on the quality of content, the relevance to your audience, and how well they align with your overall marketing strategy. Additionally, the cost and resources required to create and distribute custom publications should be carefully considered to ensure they provide a positive return on investment.

Some promotional products are practical. Some are useful. And some simply make the whole event more fun. Foldable cowboy hats fall into that last category. They bring instant energy to an event and create a shared moment people actually participate in. Whether you're hosting a company picnic, sponsoring a festival, organizing a golf outing, or planning a community celebration, foldable cowboy hats are an easy way to add personality and interaction right away. A Giveaway That Sets the Tone Foldable cowboy hats are lightweight, packable, and made for events where people are moving around and having fun. They fold into a compact pouch, making them easy to distribute and easy for guests to keep. Once opened, they pop right into shape and become part of the experience almost immediately. Perfect for Summer Events Foldable cowboy hats fit right in at: Company picnics County fairs Music festivals Rodeos Golf outings Customer appreciation events Campgrounds and outdoor recreation School events Community festivals Beach and lake events They are fun to wear, easy to carry, and naturally encourage participation and photos.

It’s a small touch that creates a shared experience without adding complexity to your event planning.
Back-to-school season is one of the busiest times of year for schools, community organizations, and family-focused businesses. Open houses, orientations, festivals, and school supply giveaways all provide opportunities to connect with local families. While everyone else is handing out another pencil or notebook, consider giving them something they'll actually enjoy using: a coloring book. Coloring books are interactive, memorable, and offer a fun way to keep your brand in front of families. Better yet, there are two ways to make them work for your organization. Branded vs. Custom Coloring Books Branded Coloring Books A branded coloring book starts with a professionally designed, ready-to-print book. Your logo, business name, and contact information are added to the cover, creating an affordable giveaway that's quick to produce and easy to distribute. Branded coloring books are a great fit for school open houses, community festivals, health fairs, pediatric and dental offices, libraries, parks and recreation departments, banks, credit unions, and other family-focused events. Custom Coloring Books A custom coloring book is created specifically for your organization. Instead of placing your logo on an existing design, every page features original artwork and content that reflects your business, mission, or message. You can include your mascot, products or services, local landmarks, educational topics, safety tips, puzzles, activities, or just-for-fun pages. Whether you're introducing students to a new school, teaching healthy habits, celebrating your community, or explaining what your business does, a custom coloring book tells your story in a creative and engaging way. Give Families Something They'll Remember Back-to-school season is the perfect time to think beyond the standard promotional products. Whether you're looking for a branded coloring book featuring your logo or a completely custom coloring book with original illustrations and content, Behind Your Design can help you create something families will be excited to take home. Sometimes the best promotional products aren't the ones everyone expects. They're the ones everyone remembers.
When Superior Lawn & Landscape completed its new facility, they wanted an event that felt as professional and polished as the company they’ve built. Behind Your Design partnered with their team to bring that vision to life, creating an experience where every detail reinforced their brand. From the moment guests arrived, the Superior Lawn & Landscape brand was present. We managed signage, catering, beverages, entertainment, photography, and overall layout, along with rental coordination to create a cohesive, functional space. We also created branded giveaways and promotional items, including aluminum cups, koozies, journals, chapstick, bug spray, sunglasses, and lots more. Door prizes and a raffle featuring company merchandise added excitement and gave guests keepsakes from the day. The biggest visual impact came from something simple: the custom Hawaiian shirts. Seeing the team and staff in coordinated branded apparel instantly created unity. It transformed individuals into one team with one identity and reinforced the company’s personality in a way traditional marketing materials can’t. That’s the power of branded apparel.
Some projects are about creating great branding. Others are about helping bring a piece of community history back to life. This spring, Behind Your Design had the privilege of supporting the return of the Flint Soap Box Derby to Cronin Derby Downs, the original home of the Flint Soap Box Derby, where racing first began in 1969. On May 30, 2026, the newly restored track welcomed racers, families, volunteers, sponsors, and supporters back to the hill for the inaugural race at its historic location. It was a day filled with excitement, nostalgia, and community pride, but the impact of the Soap Box Derby extends far beyond a single race day.
When it comes to creating a polished, professional space, the details matter. One of the most effective and affordable ways to elevate your workplace is with custom vinyl lettering for walls, windows, and other smooth surfaces. Whether you’re branding a storefront, organizing an office, or adding clarity to a facility, vinyl lettering helps turn everyday spaces into intentional brand experiences.
