By Kiana Wilburg There’s nothing wrong with investing money in television advertisements or social media promotions. But any true entrepreneur worth his or her salt would know that diversity in advertising campaigns is vital.Some of the promotional cups done by BranderZ Guyana.And while all the commercials in the world can be helpful, sometimes you need something tangible for your product promotions or trade show.Promotional products convey priceless brand impressions at an economical price, and that’s an inescapable reality. This just happens to be BranderZ Guyana’s area of expertise.This young company located in Georgetown has been making a lasting impression with its customers in just a short space of time. It is run daily by Martin Brock and his endearing wife, Amanda.Apart from his love of his two children, Amy and Alexander, Brock said that he is motivated everyday to do his job because he is afforded an exciting opportunity to embark on a creative journey each day.The 40-year-old explained how he is on a mission to take the business of promotional products to new heights.HOW IT ALL GOT STARTEDBranderZ Guyana CEO, Martin Brock, alongside some of his company’s promotional T-shirts for Guyana’s upcoming 50th Independence Day celebrations.The former student of Bishop’s High School said that the idea of getting involved in the promotional products industry all got started from an idea given to him by a dear friend. He said that he was informed that Digicel, for example, is one of the good customers in such a niche market.Brock who had already started with his wife a company, Corporate and Executive Gifts, decided to try their hands at the promotional products sector. They soon realized that they were on to a money-making venture.He said,Cheap Jerseys Authentic, “When we got everything in order, we approached Digicel and they jumped on board immediately. They made a big order too. At the time we were doing engraving and other works.”The father of two said that he eventually lost Digicel as a customer as they changed their policy and began to outsource their items.But that did not discourage him at all. He said that he and his wife pursued other big clients and were able to secure the likes of Republic Bank, the Guyana Lottery Company, Western Union, Industrial Supplies Guyana, Wartsila, and Neal and Massy. They have maintained these as valued customers even to this day.Brock said,Jerseys NFL China, “Because of the outstanding support we have received from Republic Bank, we were able to open up BranderZ Guyana last year November and stock copious supplies of items, locally.”The businessman said that the company at first started by outsourcing its products and the number of special works it did on promotional products but now they have been able to acquire the necessary equipment to do these works independently and on a larger scale.BENEFITSBrock contended that promotional merchandise, branded with a company’s name and/or logo should be considered an investment and part of an entity’s marketing budget.He said that they are not only for companies that attend trade shows, even though that might be what they are best known for.The businessman said that giving promotional gifts to current and potential customers can aid in branding, improve their opinion of the company, helps them to remember the products or services, will make them more likely to buy from the entity.He said that it is also less expensive and more effective than other forms of advertising and marketing. Brock stressed that the best part about promotional gifts is that they are kept for a long period of time by customers and this he intimated, helps with branding.Brock noted that a goal for businesses, big and small, is often brand recognition and when this is taken into consideration, promotional products prove to be a simple tool that can help increase brand awareness for a small business.He said that while business cards will always be an incredibly valuable business staple,Wholesale Jerseys, promotional products are a fun,Wholesale Basketball Jerseys, creative way to showcase a company’s contact information. Instead of just leaving a potential customer with your business card, for example, he said that a businessman may want to consider leaving behind their business card in addition with another tangible, branded product.The BranderZ Guyana CEO also expressed that the diversity in promotional products is a powerful marketing platform for reaching the masses which all businesses should make use of.SERVICES PROVIDED“We offer a number of services here at BranderZ Guyana. We do embroidery, heat transfer, vinyl printing, foil printing,China Jerseys Wholesale, ID cards, screen printing, engraving, specialty printing on almost all promotional products such as clothing, cups, pens, mugs, umbrellas, key rings, badges etc,” related the 40-year-old.Brock also intimated that his company has for some time,China NFL Jerseys, invested in importing a range of products so that customers can enjoy the benefit of seeing the type of product that they would be interested in as opposed to going through a catalogue.“Sometimes it is mind-boggling, given the thousands of varieties of items we import. It is a logistical nightmare because what are the chances of you walking into any given store and seeing 40 different pens and the one out of that set you like is the one which they don’t have?” questioned the entrepreneur.He added, “The odds are very high and sometimes, entities find themselves in that position and we just refuse to be in that place. It is a challenge but we are determined to cater to the needs of the customers. Companies in Guyana would not take that risk but we are crazy enough to do it.”The businessman said that what sets his company apart from others that are involved in the same line of trade is their amazing team work.He said, “We have also invested heavily in all the things needed to produce quality work and our minimum quantity is one. Regardless of how large we get, that will always be our trademark because some companies only allow you to do at least five or more products at a time but we are willing to do one. It is about producing a service at the end of the day and not just raking in the quick dollars. Here at Branderz Guyana, we love what we do.”Brock added that he takes the time to meet and greet clients when they visit his company. He asserted that he takes pride in going through the creative process with them.With regard to business development in Guyana,Baker Mayfield Jersey, Brock says that it has been an uphill battle in past years but now, it appears that there is a leveled playing field.“Before, it was all the old boys who got the contracts for promotional products from certain major state entities but now we are seeing massive changes.“Ministries are now asking us to provide work and quotations, the United Nations and UNICEF are also on board with us and the playing field is now open. We are of course happy about this because as I said, this is more than just a job we come to get done every day. For us, it is about providing quality service and products.”

The new Deputy Mayor is specifically interested in the development of youth and education in Region Nine.And although she plans on pursuing her studies at the Tertiary level, the teenager is channeling all her efforts towards serving in the capacity of Local Government authority in the Region.“I absolutely plan on furthering my studies at the University level.

It was Thomas Alva Edison, one of the most prolific inventors in history,Jerseys NFL Wholesale, who coined the phrase “there is no substitute for hard work.” To date, this notion has held true, reflecting that it is imperative that persons endeavour to always “put their best foot forward” in every task they are assigned.Recipient of the Eric Williams CAPE Prize for History,Cheap NBA Store, Rebecca KhanIt was with this very attitude that former student of The Bishops’ High School, Rebecca Khan, has been embracing her academic journey and has reaped nothing but success over the years. Her most recent outstanding achievement was characterised by her being bestowed with the Eric Williams Caribbean Advanced Proficiency Examination (CAPE) prize for History. She is the first Guyanese to ever receive the prestigious award, allowing her to receive a laptop computer,China Jerseys Authentic, a certificate and a book.According to a media release, Rebecca received the honour at a simple ceremony at the Trinidad and Tobago High Commission in Kingston, Jamaica,China NFL Jerseys, on September 13, last.In 2008, the Eric Williams Memorial Collection joined with the Caribbean Examinations Council (CXC) to offer an award in memory of the late Prime Minister of Trinidad and Tobago and Historian Dr. Eric Williams. The award is for the most outstanding candidate in the Caribbean in History at the CAPE. In order to attain the award, the candidate must attain Grade Ones in CAPE History unit one and unit two.Rebecca did just that,Cheap Jerseys USA, with distinctions in both units, and was selected for the prize after placing the highest on CXC’s ranking criteria. She had in fact placed second in Guyana at CAPE in 2010 having achieved five subjects with four distinctions and one grade two.

Her CAPE studies also saw her securing passes in Communication Studies and Literature.‘It wasn’t easy’With her mind set on pursuing a career in Law, Rebecca during an interview with this newspaper revealed that her achievements were only realised through hard work and perseverance. She recalled that she had to make many sacrifices, which at times included her giving up fun and rest to travel to the University of Guyana’s Turkeyen Campus to do some serious reading.She credits her time indulging in lengthy periods of reading and research as the main factor which led to her doing well at History and by extension, allowing her to become the recipient of the Eric Williams prize.“I had to do a lot of research. It was a lot of reading…and not just CXC books. The UG library has a wealth of information and it was very helpful,” she related, while intimating that her teachers, particularly Ms. Ann Thompson in History and Ms. Claire Mason in Law, were exceptional in their teaching methods, as were her other teachers.The 20-year-old nonetheless stressed that she recognised from early on that classroom sessions were not nearly enough if she intended to be outstanding.“I had some very good teachers. I can tell other students it is definitely not easy, but you can’t expect teachers to spoon-feed you. You certainly can’t expect them to teach you everything and dictate notes. In order to do well, you must read and read a lot. You have to be committed and decide that you want to do well but be realistic about it,China NFL Jerseys, since you don’t want to think you can do more than you actually can,” said an assertive Rebecca.Although she had commenced studies at the University of the West Indies in the area of History,Wholesale Authentic Jerseys, Rebecca has since decided that Law would be her preferred course of study. As a result, the daughter of Roseanne and Rafiq Turhan Khan is gearing to commence the Law Programme at the University of Guyana come next year.
