2010: New Year, New Opportunities

December 31st, 2009

New Year’s Eve is the celebration that commemorates the beginning of a new year.  For some, 2009 was a trying year yet we learned new ways to survive in an ongoing recession.  New technological opportunities boomed allowing companies to reach new masses.  Facebook, YouTube, Twitter and blogging sites took over conventional communication methods and a new phenomenon emerged.

As we get ready to kick start the new year, we should take a little time to reflect on what we want to tackle in the upcoming year. Positive thinking is the key to success.  It is helpful to set goals and stay focus to accomplish these objectives.  We hope that the new year is filled with creative inspiration, new business opportunities and a healthy lifestyle.

The Backdrops Beautiful Way for 2010:

Budget – Learn to work with lean budgets
Experiment – Don’t be afraid to try new strategies in reaching a new audience
Adapt – Every customer is different
Understand – Understand current trends and utilize modern technology
Target – Find the niche that works in today’s times
Inspiration – Be creative and let your imagination inspire
Focus – Listen and engage with your customers
Unite – connect with others and establish new partnerships to maximize exposure
Learn – Continue to develop new concepts and expand on industry knowledge

Backdrops Beautiful is extremely grateful to have met so many wonderful and creative people this past year.  We established new business partnerships and gained new client relations by becoming members of elite organizations such as ISES, MPI, NACE and UDMA.  We attended many meetings and dinner events that allowed us to create brand awareness and showcase our backdrops.  These organizations have given us the opportunity to work with many talented professionals in various industries and we look forward to being more involved in the upcoming year.

Additionally, we exhibited at many tradeshows and will be no different in the year to come.   Our participation at tradeshows such as the Special Events Show, Dance Teacher Summit, Rhee Gold’s Dance Life Teacher Conference, Dance Teacher Web Conference & Expo and UDMA’s Dance Resource & Costume Shows gave us the opportunity to meet with all our existing clients and meet new ones. These shows allow us to work on a personal level with everyone and obtain feedback to create new backdrops in line with today’s trends.

We wish you all a happy and prosperous New Year.

Backdrops Beautiful – The benefits of Social Networking

September 24th, 2009

Social networking has allowed Backdrops Beautiful to interact at a more personal level with all of our existing customers and has given us the opportunity to meet new ones. As we continue to evolve in these fast changing times we explore new and creative ways on how to bring you our latest backdrop news. We are proud to announce the launch of our new blog. We believe this will be a great way to get different opinions and encourage conversation. We would love to see your comments and feedback.

An innovative approach in reaching people in the industry is to reach them through the social mediums they like to be part of, i.e. Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, EventPeeps, LinkedIn, Blogs, etc. Social networking can open doors to new potential customers if you participate in blog discussions and forums. In doing so, we have been able to talk about what makes our backdrops unique, suggest backdrops for their events based on the theme and/or décor and answer any concerns or questions they might have. In addition, we are able to reach out to more than one individual with only one posting!

Backdrops Beautiful is now part of twibs and is now registered on wefollow directory! Twibs was created to give twitter users a place to find businesses on twitter and wefollow is a twitter user directory organized by interests.
