Yawn—more national television exposure

Let's see—past few weeks have seen Match-Up produced products on ESPN Monday Night Football (Titans), ESPN College Football (UCF), The World Series on Fox (Rays), and the NBA on TNT (Thunder). While the publicity is great—perhaps our true claim to fame will be the shirts we are doing for the Nude-A-Palooza. We do not jest- look it up in Google and just know that when the clothes come back on—the shirts are by Match-Up.

BOO

What do you call a dog owned by Dracula? A blood hound.

The Misadventures of Match-Up

We took a break from the rigors of bobblehead producing and attended the annual Match-Up outing at Islands of Adventure. Words used to describe the day..."Excellent" (Heidi), "****** fantastic" (Nikole), "Great" (Jaklyn), "Complete and utter terror" (Adam). Check out all the photos on our MySpace page!

Ok—we'll get serious—for a second

The last couple of weeks have been very hectic at Match-Up...babies being born, Member-Guest golf tournaments, flowers at the office, the Rays beating the accent out of the Red Sox, preparations for the company retreat...but let us put a hold on our mundane activities and hit ya with some knowledge. The PowerPoint found at www.ppai.com/NR/rdonlyres/C030EB75-907C-4C28-A977-0C09B6CF4FC0/0/power.PPT#1 contains enlightening facts and figures (actual validated research) showing end-users exactly how effective promotional products are! And if you don't care for the actual data- remember we have been endorsed by both Senator's McCain and Obama and Beldar (the President of the Planet Melmac- you know, where ALF was from).

Alaskans and Hockey Moms For Match-Up!

We caught up with Alaskan Governor Sarah Palin last night following her debate and asked her if she thought Match-Up was a super duper company to partner with for promotional items. The Governor’s response- "You Betcha!". When asked what the greatest attribute found in Match-Up employees and producers- she stated, "The energy. You betcha I know energy because I come from an energy producing state. Energy is critical." Asked if she could think of any movie character that symbolizes the Match-Up culture...she stated "Maverick from Top Gun. Match-Up goes against the status quo regarding most promotional item provider's views of seeing short-term profit as the overriding goal." You betcha Sarah
