Using Instagram to Build Your Brand's Online Presence By Adriano Aldini, Imprint Canada
Instagram - the popular mobile social networking platform that enables its users to take pictures and videos, and share them on a variety of social networks, like Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr and Flickr - now has almost as many monthly active users as there are people living in Canada. If your business isn't using this social media platform yet, it may be time to take notice; the world's biggest global brands have been for years with much success. Originally launched in October 2010, what began as an idea by founders Kevin Systrom and Mike Krieger has grown into a global community with 30 million users that shares more than 70 million photos and videos each day. By 2011, some of the world's biggest companies - like Red Bull and Starbucks - were tapping into this new social network, and by the spring of 2012, social media giant Facebook saw the future potential and acquired Instagram for $1 billion.
So what does this mean for your brand and your business? Well, for starters it means that Instagram gives you access to a large audience with which to engage and share compelling stories via beautiful imagery. Instagram's clean design allows captivating visuals to fill mobile screens without cluttering user experience. 2V[\IOZIU KWV\QV]ML WV 9IOM

2015 Golf Imprintables: SWOT Analysis By Steve Silva, Imprint Canada
The most recent Economic Impact Study of Golf in Canada - which was conducted last year by Strategis Network Group on behalf the National Allied Golf Associations (NAGA) - found that rounds being played across Canada are down approximately 10 per cent from 2008 levels. This drop coincides with a 2012 Golf Behavioral Study by NAVICOM which found that among the population of approximately 5.7 million golfers, the number of people entering the game is equal to the number of people 0.*;270 >9 /8; 085/# leaving the game (18 per cent or approximately 1.026 million people). @PQTM VM_ MV\ZIV\[ \W \PM [XWZ\ WN OWTN PI^M JMMV

MARCH/APRIL 2015 I Got Cheap Gas Consumers are very happy with the low price of crude oil. As long as the money saved on gas is spent in Canada, Canadians have greater purchasing power. Outside Canada's borders however, the Canadian dollar's weakness puts a huge dent in our purchasing power. South of the border, the strong American dollar coupled with low interest rates and reduced costs for oil consuming sectors - creates a further divide in our economies.
These sectors must sharpen their skill sets and empower the thinkers to discover market opportunities/products to take advantage of America's buying strength. The goal is to get them to be as happy BUYING CANADIAN as we are when we buy cheap gas. The other goal is to get the rest of Canada to be just as happy BUYING CANADIAN as we say the Americans should!
The potential of American purchases of Canadian exports is in an ideal situation for both nations. In order for Canadian manufacturers to take advantage of this market condition, they must continue to invest in new technologies to efficiently compete with other countries whose currencies have also been devalued against the American dollar.

The onus now falls upon Corporate Canada to find ways to supplement and offset the impact that low oil prices will have on Canadian oil export sectors. For so many years, that sector has helped out the rest of Canada, it is now time for other export sectors to step up and play their part in maintaining and pushing the Canadian economy forward.

On the wearablesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; side of the business in our marketplace, golf season is a heavy hitter (simply at the number of polos available from leading suppliers). The fact is that golf apparel has continued to thrive in the ever-growing casual business work environment. This has been helped by the fact that golf wear has evolved to include both functional and fashionable properties prevalent at the retail level, making it a popular choice during office hours and on the fairways. Couple this with a growing ladiesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; segment of the market, and you have a niche category that is strong and well. "There has been a huge growth in womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s golf wear recently," says Elson Yeung, Director of Private Label Design & Merchandising at alphabroder. He explains that this influx has placed even more importance on design details â&#x20AC;&#x201C; as females are generally more discerning with their apparel choices â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and those fashionable One has to look only at the sheer cues have carried over into the menâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s sector. breadth of golf apparel offerings â&#x20AC;&#x201C; from Additionally, the influx of younger golfers polos, windshirts, mid-layers, jackets, emerging at the professional level has also vests â&#x20AC;&#x201C; it can be daunting.

One of the opportunities inherent in this segment is - with the overabundance of golf offerings on the market - it may actually be easier to stand out from the crowd. If you know your competitors are all pitching the same handful of products, you can separate yourself by differentiating your offerings and building an interesting storyline around them. Anyone can choose a blue moisture-wicking polo, but how you can make it stand out is where the real opportunity lies. Another opportunity lies in leveraging the advancement of decorating technologies, such as laser embellishment, sublimation, embossing / debossing, and full colour photographic-quality prints. These embellishment techniques have afforded a wealth of opportunities to distributors to help make their product solutions stand out. Golf is played in a beautiful landscape, and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s only natural to take the most exciting decoration techniques and apply them to the products youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going to associate with this segment, whether it be for giveaways, tournaments, or events.
Trends:

Opportunities:
Trying to decipher what trends are emerging within any segment of the promotional marketplace can be a tricky endeavour. With respect to golf, you need to examine whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s happening on golf courses across the continent. "There is always going to be technological improvements - better balls, better clubs," says Morin. "We see the incorporation of your cell phone more and more on the golf course." In that context, Morin goes back to the popular selfie-stick as an innovative complimentary product. Virtually everyone is taking selfies right now, the product fits perfectly into a golf bag and even features a handle that resembles a golf club; from a marketing perspective, the fit is perfect. From the apparel perspective, a trend that is emerging (above and beyond brighter colours and more fitted silhouettes) is the increasing usage of developmental fabrics. "When I visit golf retailers, I see some of the big brands really testing the limits of fabric," notes Yeung. For better or for worse, these brands are pushing the envelope in hopes of discovering the â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;next big thingâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; and pioneering that innovation to the market. As the weather starts to warm up, the grass will thaw and the days will grow longer Be sure that youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re ready to tap into this lucrative segment before the golf season gets into full swing.

positive. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s easy to listen to cynics and believe that success is virtually impossible, or you can trust that with an optimistic attitude, anything is possible. This really is a choice you make for yourself every day and it will shape your reality.
2. Zoom focus. Each day ask yourself, What are the three most important things I need to accomplish today that will help me create the success I desire? Then, tune out all the distractions and focus on these actions. Far too often we let our attention slip to minor fires that need to be put out, and end up channeling our time and energy away from what is really important.
3. Think about where you're directing your energy. We all have a finite amount of energy. Don't waste yours on gossip, issues of the past, negative thoughts, or things you cannot control. Instead, invest your energy in your purpose, people, and the positive present moment.
4. Focus on "Get to" vs. "Have to". Each day, focus on what you get to do, not what you have to do. For instance, think, I get to go to a job that utilizes my talent and strengths and that is full of opportunities, instead of, Ugh!! I have to go to work today. Life is a gift, not an obligation.
5. Talk to yourself instead of listening to yourself. We all know what it's like for our fears, worries, and what-if 's to completely hijack our minds. These negative thoughts can wreck our self-esteem, and impact our health in a real way. The good news is, you have the power to change the conversation happening inside your head.
6. Take a walk of gratitude. Take the time for a brief Thank-You Walk during which you challenge yourself to list things you're grateful for: blessings in your life, events you're look IMPRINT CANADA _ 0DUFK $SULO
8. There is no overnight success. This is easy to forget in a world that's increasingly built around instant gratification. While more and more things are available to us the moment we want them, personal and professional success will never be on that list. There is no substitute for hard work.
9. Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t Complain. Complaints are full of negative energy and fail to enhance our lives in any way. They don't offer strategies, solutions, ideas, or encouragement.
10. Read more books than you did last year. The more you feed your mind, the stronger and more agile it grows. The more ideas and viewpoints you consider, the more innovative and empathetic you'll be. In his book, Gordon concludes that you have only one ride through life, so make the most of it and enjoy it. Sure, there will be stressful situations and challenges you'll have to overcome in 2015. But those things don't have to define your year. How you decide to think and act. however, will. *JW]\ 3WV 0WZLWV#
