Regulations on what gifts could be given to pharma/medical employees have tightened. This piece developed in response to a need to have a gift that would be considered “no-cost”, yet still provided some value and interest to the recipients. The recipients were pharmaceutical representatives that were new to the Indianapolis area.<br />
<span style="text-decoration: underline;">Results</span><br />
After a discussion with colleagues to determine what could be created that would be acceptable, we had a brainstorming session and decided to develop a welcome brochure that would highlight new and notable locations in Indianapolis to visit.</p>

<p><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Results </span><br />
After brainstorming with the client on possible travel-based themes, we narrowed it down to using a map theme and boarding pass style for the invitation and subtly highlighting some of the different places that the woman had most enjoyed. Other materials created for this event include a Save the Date postcard and a wine bottle label.</p>

The new flyers are easier-to-read, better-looking and more interesting to the customers than in the previous format.</p>
