I was contacted by Brenda Goodman, owner/publisher of Talent North, a monthly magazine based in Greater Sudbury.
She was looking for someone to put together her publication. After meeting with Brenda and her sales manager, Surreal Graphics suggested an overhaul of the publication — new logo and appearance of the magazine.
Surreal Graphics presented three different versions of logo design, as well as mockups of standing features that appear inside each publication.
Once the logo was chosen, Surreal Graphics took over the pagination of Talent North, as well copy editing the features.
After a few issues, Surreal Graphics suggested having the ads designed by us, as many businesses did not have access to designed ads (having professionally designed ads, sales would increase).
Surreal Graphics also came up with marketing campaigns to help increase revenue (Local Talent Dining feature and Pamper feature).
Responsibilities of Surreal Graphics:
- Copy editing of every story
- Designing and laying out monthly publication
- Processing photos and creating illustrations
- Design and create ads
- Calendar, Riddles, Jokes and Crossword
- Provide files for printer
- Provide digital files for website
