We’ve all heard the sayings ”The pain you feel today will be the strength you feel tomorrow”, “The beauty of flying like an eagle is the ability to soar without looking back.”, or my personal favorite featuring the cutest of kittens dangling from a tree “Hang in there!” These days it seems that everyone is trying to motivate you to do something. Just one look at the world’s most popular media site Facebook and you’ll quickly learn that people all over are using these types of motivational phrases to not only boost their own moods, but to also give others a bit of inspiration in hopes of making it through a tough time in their lives. Nowhere are these words of wisdom more needed then in the work place where just like the economy, hopes of a better future are at an all time low.
The question is though, do motivational posters placed around the office work? Well according to Ken Brown a professor at the University of Iowa they do. “If they’re part of a broader campaign, with clearly outlined goals and a commitment from management, they may have some impact ” says Brown. Brown then goes on to say, “It’s hard to alter peoples’ behavior, so getting workers to increase their value to a company is not easy. If the change effort is part of a multipronged strategy with committed management working to create change, and they create a sense of urgency that change is needed and clearly explain the reasons, then posters and coffee mugs can be a small part of it.” The Godfrey Group understands this idea and that’s why all of our products are geared toward helping you spark a sense of desire in the hearts and mind of your target market.
Whether you are in fact looking for poster frames perfect for those motivational phrases to hang around the office or you need an eye-catching display practically guaranteed to draw people to you, Godfrey has just what you need to get the job done. If you get down to it from our Pop-up displays to our Portable Kiosks, to our Computer Stations; everything Godfrey does is essentially created to motivate. If you are looking to inspire your customers or improve the attitude of your own employees, contact Godfrey today and get on the path to a brighter tomorrow.

Last week in a post titled “The Right Person For The Job” I talked about how something as tantalizing as Fillet Mignon would appear to be plain trash if it were to be served to you on a garbage can lid. Now in that post I was using this example as way to make sure you are employing people who have a certain degree of charm and personality, but the same can be said about how you choose to show off your product as well. You could essentially have one of those products that becomes synonymous with a entire line of products from any number of manufacturers (Coke, TiVo, and Matchbox Cars are examples of this), but because you did not choose the best way to promote your idea nobody ever takes notice. It’s those early decisions about how you will choose to bring your product to the consumer that make all the difference in the world.
Understandably this isn’t an easy process and not something to jump into. You want to start with a very broad idea of what you want and then begin to eliminate choices. Is your event outside? Do you need something like a large tent or would a smaller Mushroom style kiosk do the trick? Are you looking for something that can easily be packed up and taken to the next location or does portability not matter? Maybe you are just looking to spice up your office front. Will there be some type of attendant with a desk stationed there? Is privacy going to be a concern? How about signage? Were you thinking about something that may possibly hang from the ceiling or maybe you’d rather just have a stand that would allow people to pick up literature as they pass by?
All of these questions and we haven’t even considered graphics yet. Are you looking for something with bright colors or is something more professional what you had in mind? Do you have a specific logo that needs to be included or are you looking to come up with a new theme unlike anything you have done before? Are considering renting a booth to start out or are you ready to fully customize a display of your own?
Finding what is right for you and your products can be time consuming process, but one that is fulfilling and often very profitable. Knowing what works best for you and what you want makes all the difference in the world. The Godfrey Group understands this and that’s why we’ve created a Design Library that lets you start narrowing your ideas down and even save them so that you can come back later after you’ve researched what you want a little further. Don’t hesitate. Login in today!!

In marketing terms the definition of a Gatekeeper is someone who controls the flow of information from one person to another. In sales everywhere you turn you are bumping into one of these information controllers. Their entire job is to evaluate each situation that someone else believes should receive their supervisors attention and decipher as to whether or not if what they are being told is vital knowledge that should be passed up the food chain or is simply a sales pitch that can easily be passed along via brochure, business card, or email. After all the boss is busy. The boss doesn’t have time to talk to everyone that walks in the door. The boss gets upset at the Gatekeeper for not screening better and causing his time to be wasted. When the boss is unhappy nobody is happy.
Taking all of the above under consideration you can understand why the Gatekeeper has just as much power as anyone in the company. The ability to control the flow of information is a very awesome tool to wield around. Before they can do their job though Gatekeepers need a couple things, first of all they need to be surrounded by a professional environment that doesn’t allow information to flow past them. You can’t just sent them out in the open where work is clearly visible behind them and expect them to stop solicitors from getting a leg up. There needs to be a barrier between them and the inner workings of the company. Something like one of our many Bizwall Retail Interiors which gives your office a touch of class, professionalism, and most importantly privacy. Our line of partitions and wall panels is designed to provide comfort to all that enter your location while at the same time limiting their involvement with the work that is taking place behind closed doors.
The next thing your Gatekeeper needs is a desk that allows plenty of space for their computer, fax, files, and confidential materials that need to be kept out of the public eye. They need an area that is neat and organsized plus also keeps clutter to a minimum so as to maintain a professional appearance. The DeskWrap Secretary Reception Center is all of that and more. A perfect match to our Bizwall line, this isn’t your ordinary desk. Ranging in length from 48″ to 120″ this reception center comes with ample shelving, plenty of space for hanging file folders, and even has a personal storage compartment.
Your Gatekeeper is only going to be as good you allow them to be and that’s why you need to give them the best tools for the job. With Godfrey‘s line of Bizwall Interiors combined with the DeskWrap Secretary Reception Center your company will not only be putting a professional looking face on the front of your office, but one that allows for confidentiality as well as privacy.
