BUYERS GUIDE COVER CONTEST The Buyers Guide and Membership Directory is a book to show off what our members can do. To do this members are listed in this book with company information. Some companies purchase ad’s to showcase more information about what they can do and others help with the production of making the book. Another way for members to participate in the production of the book is to submit cover designs. PIM staff will pick a theme for members to incorporate into their designs. 2018 COVER CONTEST THEME: FINE PRINT We’re not talking about 6 pt print that might lead you to unknowingly sell your soul to illuminati. No, we are talking about Fine Print as in Fine Art, because we believe our members are capable of producing museum-worthy work. Did you know that the cover for the 2017 issue had to withstand 5 passes through the press before going to binding? The complications and effort were worth it, for a guide with an exclusive LOOK and FEEL, as the cover says, “unlocking the sensory advantages of print.” We know that all of our members have the capabilities to create FINE projects. Thank you to all the members that sent in designs this year!!! We had a record number of designs which made it incredibly difficult to pick the winner. Each design that something special and we wanted to show off all the entries! “CARDSource provides cards and card services that add value to our clients’ businesses and help them align with their customers.” 6 PIM 2018 Print Buyers Guide | www.pimw.org
