For years I have tried to balanced my studio advertising work with an eclectic mix of national and local clients. Some of these clients live in here in Coeur d’Alene, Idaho. Others operate corporate offices out of Spokane, Washington, or Seattle. From Florida, to New York, to Chicago, to LA, I am lucky to have made a a valuable impact with a variety of clients, a few of which I have actually met in person. It is a interesting world we live in when I can collect a $50,000 check from somebody, whom I have worked hand-in-hand with, and feel like I know like a good friend, and yet I have never seen their face.

It is wonderful, however, to do local work where I can see instant reactions to my creative efforts, and bank the rewards of a personal face-to-face meeting. It is hard to cash a spontaneous smile, but the value really is priceless.

Braided Accents has been one of my Coeur d’Alene clients for over six years. When they call up in a panic on Wednesday afternoon and need an ad by Friday morning I am happy to oblige service. As a long term client they have banked a lot of smiles in my account.
