For several years now I have used scratch pads made from the " Bright's" paper we buy from Staples. We have our printer print the name of our business and address and phone #'s and emails addresses and web site address on them. I then use them as a small gift each time I visit prospective and loyal customers. They love them! I have had calls from all over the US asking about our services and the cost and then they ask if I could send them a few more of our colorful scratch pads. The management that I visit on my sales calls love them too and their receptionist tell me they sneak them from their bosses offices 'cause they like them so much. So now when I go into a clients office or work place I have to make sure to drop a couple of out "Staple's Bright's" scratch pads off with the receptionist also. It keeps our name in front of our customers eyes in a colorful way. They can't forget us! Everyone always looks forward to my visits with anticipation of seeing us and getting more pads which in-turn gets us more business!
I earmarked this color for a special project (Affordable Care Act) its upcoming events. The blue is a gorgeous color that isn't sharply bright - it is a beautiful blue that is to my eye soothing and yes PRETTY or HANDSOME if you prefer. My idea is to allow the color to do its soothing job while being perused by those who are interested unclear about the program and in need of some plain clear and concise answers. This is definitely the right color choice for this project. The prototype really looks great and I am very pleased with the weight and initial output.
I have to admit that this was the first bright color that I used for my color coding efforts ... not sure why maybe the kid in me maybe the bright yellow was calling my name that day who knows. However I was very excited to print out my brochure admire the luscious yellow paper (and my handiwork of course) and place the brochure in our new brochure section. It seemed fitting for our tax resolution program - red would seem kind of mean to me - the yellow being much more uplifting and a desirable paper color for enticing the reader to give the information a chance to brighten their world. I am thrilled to be using these Staples Brights (even more so than when I purchased them). Ahhh I love it when things come together so successfully!
Thanks for putting the colored paper on special - it has millions of uses. As a teacher I like colored paper so that I can provide mutiple versions of the test and it is easy to tell at a glance if two students are sitting together with the same form. In addition it is great for lighter colors for bulletin boards when most construction paper is in darker colors. Finally it folds perfectly for cards or trifolds for decorations of 3-D trees and bells during the holidays. There is so much you can do with the paper - - - and at BOGO you do it at half the price.
I used the paper for a project I was doing. I was making paper roses and the colors were exactly what I was looking for and I also used it for other projects as well as printing out documents. I like it it's a good product.
I love the colored card stock. I use them in my centers and during Daily 5 in my classroom. I print the material on them and then laminate them for durability.
I needed for a pageant for my sorority and with red ink the programs turned out wonderful. Everyone thought that it was a professional job but did on my home computer. I was very happy with product especially since I received a buy one get one free offer so now I have enough paper for many more programs and do not have to buy for a while. Would gladly recommend this paper to any and everyone that is responsible for programs brochures and place cards for their organization. The paper can even be used for smaller posters to advertise an event. Thank you!
The Staples Brights 24lb paper is great for many things. From kids drawings to art projects to printing on the various colors for public information this paper gets noticed.
