                MyBinding.com Represents at eTail West

                February 27, 2013 by Jeff McRitchie

                This week, two of our marketing professionals are basking in the warmth of the Palm Desert. No, they’re not on vacation. And “basking” is probably the wrong word. “Sitting inside a poorly lit, stale, and crowded meeting room at a national eCommerce conference” is probably a more accurate description.

                Our Vice President of Marketing Jeff McRitchie and UX Designer Chris Vander Meulen are participating in the annual eTail West conference. This year the conference is hosted at the JW Marriott Desert Springs in Palm Desert, California. So while McRitchie and Vander Meulen aren’t exactly lounging by the pool all day, they are learning, networking, and even teaching a little.

                 

                eTail-West-bm-content-1

                On Monday, McRitchie delivered a presentation on video marketing encouraging businesses to invest whatever resources they could leverage into a video marketing campaign. Using MyBinding.com’s own success with video as a springboard, McRitchie’s presentation details the why and how of successful video marketing. The presentation generated a lot of positive response, so we’ll try to post it sometime next week for those who are interested.

                In addition to McRitchie, the conference also featured a number of other high-profile presenters including CEOs and executives from companies like Nike, Twitter, Disney, United Airlines, Redbox, Facebook, HP, REI, Sony, Visa, and more.

                “The conference has been excellent so far,” McRitchie comments. “I’m excited to return to MyBinding and begin implementing some of the great ideas being generated. Our business definitely stands to benefit, but I think our customers and users have the most to gain from all the innovation we’re bringing back.”

                Keep watching for more about MyBinding.com’s experience at eTail in the coming weeks.

                About eTail:

                GRAPHitti in the Printerverse at Graph Expo

                October 8, 2012 by Jeff McRitchie Leave a Comment

                Our VP of Marketing Jeff McRitchie took a few minutes out of the packed Graph Expo schedule to say hi to all of us at home! Hmm, he says “I wish you were here, too.” Does that mean the whole company is going next year, Jeff?

                We’re guessing not. But he is participating in GRAPHitti, the world’s first interactive message board. This amazing invention is found in the Printerverse, the booth sponsored by Print Media Centr. According to a recent interview we did with Deborah Corn, one of the brains behind it, GRAPHitt “starts with a printed photo and ends with anyone in the world being able to see your message.” Sounds like a must-see if you’re at Graph Expo!

                Let us know what you think of the Printerverse, if you have a GRAPHitti post for us to check out, or if you just want to say hi.

                Welcome to the Printerverse!

                October 5, 2012 by Jeff McRitchie Leave a Comment

                Welcome-Printerverse-bm-content-1If your business is even remotely related to the print world, then you’ve probably heard of Graph Expo and likely you’re heading there. Graph Expo, held in Chicago on October 7-10, is a tradeshow where technology and print collide, with networking opportunities, educational seminars, and more for top players in the print industry. Whether you work in design or delivery, all facets are covered, including equipment, products, and services. And really, what industry isn’t affected by print? This is one show you don’t want to miss!

                This year’s Graph Expo will have many exhibits to check out. One Must See is Print Media Centr’s Printerverse. What is Printerverse and why should people visit it? We wondered the same thing. So we took our questions to Deborah Corn, COO of Print Media Centr and one of the masterminds behind the creation of this massive exhibit. Here is what she had to say:

                So how did you come up with the ideas for Printerverse?

                We started with the most out there ideas we could come up with and then Graph Expo added theirs and we got to what was doable! The concept started in a 20 x 40 booth and ended up in 4500+ square foot space because Graph Expo was very supportive and wanted the best.

                It seems way beyond the typical conference booth, definitely upped the “fun” factor.

                Well you know me and my fun factor, had to throw some in there. We will have some old school fun around the space, too.

                Besides fun, why should someone add it to their show planner? What value is there for a printer?

                We have a full schedule of free speakers and panels discussing relevant topics, so the education available is valuable. Also, Peter Lancaster and his team have created some amazing cross media campaigns that will show what is possible with print.

                A visual is always a great tool! Which leads me to GRAPHitti, the first ever interactive message board. What a great way to increase interaction!

                It is cross media gone wild! It starts with a printed photo and ends with anyone in the world being able to see your message.

                Printerverse is available for multiple days. Is there a day/time that’s best for someone to get the most out of it?

                We are up and running Sunday through Wednesday but if you want to catch the bulk of speakers and panels, Monday and Tuesday would be the best days.

                Or maybe they should just stop by every day, multiple times, to pack in as much FUN as possible.

                I have a feeling we will have permanent residents besides our team and the Girls Who Print volunteer force.

                What are the top three things printers can expect to take home after visiting the Printerverse?

                I expect it will be different for everyone. But what I hope they see is (1) that technology completes and doesn’t compete with print; (2) people working together; and (3) social works.

                Number one is a great point. I think that’s something many people, especially those outside the print world, don’t realize.

                I agree – it’s not one or the other, both work together and can do so very cool from a digital perspective! We will show that.

                One person I interviewed said technology advanced because of print, not in spite of it. Anything you’d like to add?

                Just that I hope everyone stops by or passes through or peeks in and best case has an EXPERIENCE in the Printerverse!

                We Made the Inc. 5000 — Again!

                September 14, 2012 by Jeff McRitchie

                inc5000-again-bm-content-1Here at MyBinding.com, we’re proud to announce that we’ve made Inc. magazine’s top 5000 list of fastest-growing companies in America for the second straight year. And while we’re definitely excited about receiving such an honor, we’re just as excited to be ranked among so many other great companies…right here in Portland! In fact, here’s a brief look at the top five Portland-based companies according to the Inc. 5000.

                 

                Elemental Technologies
                Topping the Inc. 5000′s Portland list was this technology development company. Elemental Technologies develops technology for online video streaming. They work with major content distributors like Comcast, Disney, and HBO to bring streaming video to your media device of choice. In addition to being Inc.’s number one in Portland, Elemental Technologies also finds themselves ranked second among all software companies nationwide.

                DiscoverOrg
                Just across the river in Vancouver, this 5 year-old company maintains a database of contact information that it makes available to technology marketers. Targeting over 15,000 organizations, including Fortune-ranked companies, universities, and government agencies, DiscoverOrg gives technology marketers unprecedented access to the largest technology buyers in the world.

                Janrain
                Third on our local list is Janrain, a company that created an online platform to allow users access to multiple accounts using only their preferred social media credentials, saving them the hassle of multiple logins and passwords. On the flip side, this also grants businesses access to their users social media data, from which they can develop and initiate more targeted campaigns. Interesting side note: The company’s name was inspired by a typical Portland occurrence–rain in January.

                Virtualosity Solutions
                Back across the river in Camas, Virtualosity Solutions comes in at number four on the Inc. 500o’s top Portland-based companies. This local Information Technology service specializes in solutions and software development for financial services, health care, education, and imaging technologies. Despite its small town roots, Virtualosity Solutions has an impressive list of global customers.

                Eid Passport
                Finishing up the top five is a particularly notable company, our neighbor, Eid Passport. It’s true! You’ll find this security screening company just down the road from us in Hillsboro. Eid Passport offers products and services to high-security facilities such as military, government, and other commercial buildings. They specialize in granting and streamlining secure access to authorized personnel. So much for us sneaking into their office parties, right?

                Just for good measure, here’s a handful of other companies we’re happy to share the limelight with:

                Jama Software
                Sustainable Harvest
                Consumer Cellular
                Ruby Receptionists
                Keen
                Axium
                Plaid Pantry

                (See the entire Portland-metro area list here.)

                And there you have it. We’re honored to share such a distinguished achievement with our local colleagues. We hope to continue serving the Portland area and beyond in the years to come. Thanks for your support!
