Can’t Touch This

You might be at the beach being buried underneath the warm sand or practicing your diving skills into the water, but one thing is certain: that cell phone of yours is buried deep in the beach bag to keep from getting damaged or destroyed. You’re having fun, but you can’t help but think that you’re phone isn’t protected enough. What can you do to ensure the protection of that precious little lifeline?

Worry no more because Bullpen Marketing is, once again, here to save the day and help you forget your troubles. The Waterproof Pouch is made specifically to keep your valuable items away from danger. Because of this tiny, but significant item, you will no longer find minuscule pieces of sand in the crevices of your phone or need to race to the phone store because the original was destroyed in a body of water. It is 100% waterproof and comes with an adjustable cord that is also child-friendly. Maybe you frequently have bad luck with water and technology, or maybe you’re taking that two weeks’ vacation to Maui, but either way your valuable items need to be protected and Bullpen Marketing is offering you the perfect way to go about that.

The Waterproof Pouch is made of PET plastic, is 6.5”H x 4.5”W x .4”D, and has an imprint area on the front in a clear panel that is 2.5”H x 2.5” W. This item can be as low as $3.68.

And the Password is… [INVALID]

Once upon a time, the word Password was the brand name of a popular television game show from the 1960’s. Two teams, each composed of a celebrity guest and a contestant, competed in a game to guess words from one-word clues. One member of each team was given the “password” and tried to get his partner to say the word using a one-word clue. If he or she could not, the opposing team received a chance to try. The point value started at ten and decreased by one until the word was guessed. The first team to score twenty five points won the game and played the “Lightning Round,” where one player tried to convey five words to their partner in one minute (at $50 per word). Watch a clip of the game show below.

Gustav, Hanna, Ike, and Josephine

Once again, hurricane season has everyone in the Gulf Coast on alert. As I write this posting, there are two active storms threatening our country – Hanna is taking a tour up the east coast and Ike is poking its way towards the gulf.Tropical storms in our area start out as tropical waves from the western African coast. Africa blows these deadly kisses across the Atlantic to the Caribbean Sea and North America.

There’s nothing scarier than being in the “cone of uncertainty” as the hurricane approaches our communities.Being prepared is critical and something we should all do.”

Meaningful Mother’s Day

Tuesday, May 13th, 2008

Posted by: Colin Hageney

This Mother’s Day was a special day for several reasons.  My 3-year-old son, Harry and I decided to walk with 2,500+ Houstonians along Buffalo Bayou in the Y-ME Walk to Empower, a 3-mile walk to raise money to fight breast cancer.  Having lost a mother and a mother-in-law to cancer (not to mention Harry losing two grandmothers), I couldn’t think of a better way to start this special Sunday.

EMS Global’s marketing guru, Trevor Eade, invited us to join their walking team – “The Pipeline Posse”.  Even better, Trevor had Bullpen’s t-shirt experts produce the team shirt – a navy Hanes Beefy Short-Sleeve Contrast Stitch t-shirt with (count ‘em) ten screens total (1 on the front, 4 on the back, 1 on the right sleeve, 4 on the left sleeve).  The 3 shades of pink on the front and left sleeve created an amazing 3-D effect.

EMS Team Picture

The weather was absolutely perfect and shortly before the start of the race, the MC announced that EMS had won the best overall t-shirt of the 20+ teams!  It made the walk that much sweeter to wear the winning shirt that Bullpen produced up and down the bayou with pride.  The only thing that could have made the day better would have been if we could have joined the Pipeline Posse at their brunch at 1308 Cantina on Montrose, but alas… the 3-year old and his dad were spent.

Safety Awareness – Identity Theft Protection

Thursday, May 1st, 2008

Posted by: Lauri Laufman, MAS

As a solution provider, when recently requested to come up with a safety related idea to tie in with a client’s awareness project the subject of personal identification theft protection came to mind since it has been in the news so much of late.

We get so much mail these days with personal identifiers on them. Wouldn’t it be nice if we could recycle all that extra paper and just remove those identifiers?

Safety Security Scissors

The solution utilized based on a $5 budget per recipient was a pair of scissors… but not just your ordinary desk style pair. Nope, these 7-1/2″ shears feature 5 stainless steel blades which allow the recipient to safely and securely destroy confidential documents and materials that should not be otherwise innocently tossed.

Client was not only thrilled to meet budget but the icing on the cake was their employees appreciation to the gift provided.
