Sometimes, we wonder how the colorful magazines that we read or the captivating brochures that we receive came to be. Of course, it all started with a creative process. Writers and designers work together in order to create a good design. Once they are done with the planning and designing, printers take over and take responsibility in creating these designs and transforming them to a work of art. Printing is a seemingly complex area that involves an endless combination of skills, equipments and outcomes. Although letterpress and screen printing are some of the ways to put ink into paper, offset printing is one of the processes you will likely find in great quantity in most print shops.

Offset printing is mostly suitable for printing multicolor photos and artwork on papers. Most modern printing today is done through offset. The process involves the transferring of ink from the impression cylinder to the printed sheet. Offset printing is based on the principle that ink and water don’t mix. In the past, lithographers engraved images on a flat stone. Some stone accepts water while others accept ink. When ink is applied on these stones, the image stays on the greasy area and avoids the rest of the stone.

Today, this concept is still being used in printing but with the addition of one essential element - images are transferred from the printing plate to a rubber blanket and then to the paper. When the plate is exposed, an ink receptive coating is activated at the image area. The plate is then dampened by water rollers then by ink rollers. The ink sticks on the image area and the water to the non-image area. From this, the image is transferred to the blanket and the paper passes between the blanket and the cylinder and the image is them transferred to the paper.

There are no limitations on tonal choices with offset printing. You can even use smaller fonts and much more detailed images. Offset printing is really good when working in four color process, if the print job is fairly detailed and uses a lot of color or tonal ranges. Hence, modern printing has evolved through offset printing. With it, printing abilities today has increased significantly in quality and quantity.

Marketing is a serious game where it is possible to have a lot of fun. There are very strict rules in this area, but don’t worry, we need to study and master the rules then comes the fun.

This process can always be improved in the course of time, but that decision is ours to make, and no one else can make it for us. In return we can possibly transform and adapt ourselves to a very changing and complex marketplace with the open goal to become and remain successful. And this is very funny.

A lot of people may say the Internet has made traditional marketing obsolete, but they are wrong. This new technology has developed and diversified the process in many ways, without changing the foundation of marketing.

Basic, traditional marketing is as relevant as ever.
The Four P’s - Product, Price, Place (distribution), and Promotion - are still very much alive. At the same time, the old tactics as strategic thinking, segmenting, and targeting can still win an advantage inside of competition.

Start the funny game of marketing by planning. Having no plan is the biggest mistake of your life. It’s possible not to have clearly defined in your mind your target market or how to reach it. Then take it easy and write down what you want to accomplish, what are your goals. Then ask yourself what are the right ways to achieve the proposed goals and step by step you can have the plan in front of you.

Before to put it in practice take care if your plan contains :

1. Separate strategies and tactics to address each approach suggested by your goals and accomplishments.
2. Checking points.
3. A real method of evaluation of your progress. This make easy to decide if you’re on the good way or you need to make corrections.

A final note. The logic of the action is what’s important.

Submodality is an NLP term for the components we have available to construct and order our inner representations of experience. The following modalities carry the power of trance/delusion/confusion of your experience, in your inner and outer world.

1.) Inner sensory components (seeing, feeling, etc.).
 2.) Association and dissociation.
 3.) Color and black and white.
 4.) Motion and stills (as in pictures).
 5.) Location in space and time.
 6.) Backgrounds and boundaries.
 7.) Textures and tonality.
 8.) Speed: rate of change (fast/slow; everything changes).
 9.) Language: syntax, grammar, inflection, etc.
 10.) Size, resolution, and what else? (Think about it!)

Being aware of this inner theater, you can begin to play with your own submodalities in order to change your experience in beneficial ways.
When you understand this, you can be endlessly creative with technique in the most powerful way, spontaneously, because you will have grasped the nature of communication, experience, and trance structure. You will never be afraid of encountering an unknown challenge.

It can be disturbing to regard mind as theater. Some may resist using techniques involving visualization, imagination, notions of Inner Guides, etc. because something in them, in their experience, knows genuineness exists, sacredness exists, real contact exists, and intimacy exists. You react to these tools as deceptions, forgetting that when they are suffering, they are living in their own self-created deceptions. You throw away sacredness, just as you fear these therapeutic devices may make you settle for self-deception. On the contrary, these theatrical deceptions are meant to dissolve and break the density of the pre-existing prison of egoic trance deceptions, of habitual theatrical structures and procedures that you have mastered so thoroughly that you are unaware of them.

Think about your father. Think about your car. Think about a ham sandwich. How do you know you are thinking about your father? How do you know you are not thinking about a ham sandwich?

Is it not true that you know what you are thinking about because you have inner pictures, sounds, and sensations? You know its your father and not a ham sandwich because you see him!

Now, is he in a movie or a snap shot, is it color or black and white? There are no right answers. Just notice the qualities of your natural way of remembering.

Now change them to the other - if it was a movie, make it a snap shot, or vice versa, and notice any change in your state. If it was, color change it to black and white, or vice versa, and notice any change it your state. Most people will experience a feeling change. This demonstrates to you that, contrary to what you have been believing, the story and details of your life are not the reason you feel the way you feel about the past. The way you store this information determines your feeling.

For example, if you have a memory that you can’t get over, chances are you are replaying it in vivid color and sound, very close up, and you are in it looking out of your own eyes.

And if you have a memory of something you have gotten over, it very well may be black and white, small, far away, and you are not in it.
Start paying attention to ‘How’ you access information from your memory. You have the right to change the ‘How’ so the ‘What’ doesn’t diminish you in any way.
