Summertime just naturally makes our creativity blossom. From planning company picnics in the park and orchestrating inspiring team-building events to offering clients specials of the season, it’s a great time of year to launch all those promotional pieces and marketing materials that were hibernating all winter. Here’s a look at some great ideas for projects to create with your Konica Minolta this summer:

Konica MinoltaA Company Yearbook(let)

Whether you’re the owner of a multi-site corporation with hundreds of employees or you run a one-location shop with 10 loyal workers, creating a booklet that features each of your staff members will excite and motivate your team. It can include mini bios on each individual ~ highlighting their goals, their favorite foods, local places to patronize, inspirational quotes, and their birthday dates! With your Konica Minolta you can print full-color pages of pictures of each employee, collate the pages and then have your printer staple them. Voila! Your yearbook is done and will be something your staff treasures and looks forward to each summer! How fun would it be to come up with a theme for each summer’s professional-looking yearbook(let) that is printed in-house!

Happy Hour Flyers

Although your business may have nothing directly to do with orchestrating large groups of people for social events, there’s no reason you can’t do that! During the summer why not plan a Friday Happy Hour event at your business where you feature appetizers, live music (if you check…you’ll probably discover some of your employees are talented musicians!), refreshing summer beverages and maybe a ping-pong tournament! You can design and print two-sided full-color flyers with your Konica Minolta and send them out to your customers, vendors and staff each Monday! The relationships you will build and develop by planning this 3-hour social event each Friday afternoon will easily bring more profit to your company in the long run.

Summer Newsletter

While your summer yearbooklet will feature the photos and mini bios of all your staff members, your monthly summer newsletter will feature accomplishments of your team members, birthdays to celebrate for the month and news about changes, purchases or events going on at work. With your Konica Minolta you can easily collate the multi-page newsletter, print some of the pages in color and have the newsletter folded or bound with staples. You can rally the support and input of your staff by having each department contribute content, graphics and photos to the monthly newsletter. To elevate the project to another level you can even assign the production and printing of the newsletter to a different team of staff members for each edition ~ giving them the flexibility and freedom to design it however they want using the company’s Konica Minolta photo copiers!

Promotional Brochure

In addition to sending your customers your weekly two-sided flyers promoting your Friday Happy Hour event, you can also create a tri-fold brochure for them that features your signature services, your latest products and/or your seasonal specials. Printing tri-fold brochures in-house is so simple and so cost-effective with your Konica Minolta printer that you may find yourself printing multiple brochures each year (and not just in the summer). With a tri-fold brochure, you’ll have five “panels” you can use for content, graphics, photos and then you can leave the sixth (middle) panel blank (except for your return address)! This will enable you to save money further by printing the address of each recipient directly on the brochure and mailing it without having to use an envelope!

Summertime is a wonderful season to let your staff and customers know just how much you appreciate them!  Feel Free to contact us for more information.

Employee Spotlights and Newsletters

Create vibrant employee spotlights with mini bios and fun facts about your team. Print high-quality, full-color pages using your Konica Minolta and compile them into a yearly booklet that boosts morale and community spirit. Additionally, develop interactive newsletters where each department contributes content and graphics. Rotate newsletter production among teams to foster collaboration. Your Konica Minolta makes printing and binding easy, ensuring a professional finish.

Happy Hours and Promotional Brochures

Organize weekly Friday Happy Hours at your office. Design and print engaging, two-sided flyers with your Konica Minolta to invite employees, clients, and vendors. These events enhance networking and business relationships. Also, produce tri-fold promotional brochures highlighting your services, latest products, and seasonal specials. Utilize the five-panel design for rich content and visuals, and use the sixth panel for mailing addresses, cutting envelope costs. Printing these in-house with your Konica Minolta is cost-effective and efficient.

By leveraging your Konica Minolta printer, you can improve internal communications and marketing efforts, making summer a time for growth and enhanced connections.
