Paperie Boutique • products, packaging and marketing ideas for professional photographers

May201003

In case you missed the big news on Twitter this weekend, a sneak-peek of the May 2010 issue of Rangefinder Magazine was released online — and Paperie Boutique / yours truly are featured in the “Marketing Mojo” section (along with the photos of a couple of previous Paperie guest posters)!

I’ve had to sit on this news for weeks now and I’ve been bursting at the seams to share it here. Watch your snail-mail boxes because the actual print-magazine should start arriving soon!

It’s been an amazing spring for my businesses. This national print campaign just launched last week. (I knew it would be late spring or early summer but I wasn’t sure exactly when.) The Rangefinder online edition went up Friday. And I’ll get to spill the biggest news of all this June — I got the final confirmation on it this past Friday as well. Strange days, indeed.

To thank everyone for getting us here, we’re giving one lucky Paperie Boutique reader a $20.00 gift certificate to Robyn’s favorite place online – Paper Source.

To win just go to your blog, Facebook account, Flickr account, or Twitter account and post the following:

The cool kids over at Photojojo asked us to share one of their new products with you – the Shinjuku Photo Scrap-Kit. If you’re stuck on what to get your mom for Mother’s Day, this might be the perfect solution!

They discovered this kit on a recent trip to Japan and imported it just for you. It’s vintage / retro. It’s hip. It’s acid-free. And it has pretty vellum, photo tape, and cinema film sticky notes.

I think I’m turning Japanese. I really think so!

Miss all the packaging features? We can’t post them if you don’t send them! If you would like your packaging featured, or would like to nominate someone for us to contact and request they submit their packaging for a feature, please write Robyn (e-mail link is in the sidebar or you can type it out – robyn @ this domain – or you can leave a comment).
