Walttools Now Makes It Easy For a Decorative Contractors to Turn Concrete into Their Business Card

17/08/201417/08/2014Klarm Prototyping

Morris, IL (PRWEB) August 15, 2014

Plain gray concrete is everywhere and most people do not care who put it there. Decorative concrete, on the other hand, has been growing in popularity every year and is being installed in both residential and commercial settings every single day. People like what people see and are very interested in knowing who can do that type of work for them. As architects, designers and contractors continue to see the possibilities that decorative concrete can offer, this trend will certainly continue. What better way for a contractor to advertise their work than leaving their “business card” in the very surface that everyone is interested in.

Simple “date” concrete stamps have been around for decades and are usually made from a metal such as brass. These simple tools can be quite expensive and really do not offer much in the way of advertising. If a contractor wanted a more detailed design with the existing tools systems, it would turn out to be very expensive and take time to be sent out and made. As part of their business expansion into precision custom tool making, Walttools saw it was time that contractors had an easier time getting the type of tool needed to imprint their information with a design that reflected their business.

The ability for the contractor to get custom logo stamps offers a simple solution for contractors at a small investment. Customers can choose simple text based designs or full custom logos that can be designed by themselves or by Walttools’ in house design team house. Logo impressions can be used by contractors to serve as a permanent business card for all who see the project. Another, often overlooked, use is actually for the client who would like a special logo or design in their project to give it a more personal touch. “One major advantage is that whether it is a simple logo or complex in-house design, custom items can usually ship to the customer within a day of proof approval, which is a vast improvement over the 1-3 week turn around found in the marketplace,” says Jason Cortez, design engineer at Walttools. The tools are made from a high density polyethylene material that has long life and is not unwieldy like old school metal tools. Each tool will also exhibit a high quality oak handle, making it easy for a decorative concrete contractor to leave their mark on the world.

FoxConn Facilities

Foxconn is the largest oem China manufacturer in the world. They are the ones that build all of Apple’s product, as well as laptops for Dell, Sony, etc.

They employ 700,000 people in China – roughly 10% of the population of Hong Kong. Their security guards are former ZhongNaiHai guards – equivalent of US Secret Service that protects the President. They have their own hospital for their employees, as well as their own fire department.

Recently (2 years ago) Foxxcon’s Apple division in Guanlan purchased 6000 CNC China milling machines to build the Unibody chassis for the MacBook Pros. Their subcontractor, Hanwei, has another 1000 machines to take overflow work. I just find that mind boggling.

Did you all know I have a free Newsletter? You’ll love it… all kinds of great photos and free tips!

This thing is enormous. In grinds and churns as it follows the sun. The metallic petals flex and bend with the light as the sun sweeps across the sky. I had never seen anything like it in my life.

It sits in a park and public walking area of Buenos Aires, Argentina. I walked around it for a while to get a good angle of the monster. My tripod was stuck in customs, so I had to do this one handheld… and do my best to keep the camera as stead as a T-1000.

You all can see the New Video right here! People that got the Newsletter (it’s free!) got an early sneak peek!

Chicago, IL (PRWEB) August 16, 2014

Exact Data, a marketing data broker out of Chicago, Illinois, recently completed an update to its Business-to-Business database. Updates to the privately-held company’s database are conducted monthly for the purposes of cleaning records and appending new compiled data. In the most recent update, Religious Institutions Mailing Lists gained significant amounts of records.

While religious institutions may not normally be thought of as businesses, they still conduct business with vendors and suppliers regularly, and marketers target religious institutions all the time. Exact Data’s Religious Institutions Mailing Lists include officers and executives of Churches, Synagogues, and Mosques, as well as other faith-based organizations and their decision makers.

For example:

Christian Higher Educational Institutions Mailing List
or

Religious Book Stores Mailing List

All of Exact Data’s lists are built from the ground up, so marketers can choose from dozens of variables, also known as ‘selects,’ to specify a marketing list. “B2B selects take a vast database, or a basic list, and turn it into a precision marketing tool,” states Larry Organ, CEO of Exact Data.

Marketers can select information based on a particular channel, such as Email, Phone, or Postal records, based on their intended campaign outcomes. All of Exact Data’s information, regardless of channel is considered permission compliant for marketing purposes.
