Devin Fitzpatrick Art Consultants Review: Doing art decoration for your home the right way

Everyone has their own preference in doing decorations for their home where others don’t want anything in their walls since they prefer simple and clean concept. But let’s face it, adding art can really do some magic because it really gives energy and beauty to every room.

There’s a proper way to decorating a room space with art, but you might be impulsive sometimes in doing your décor that often leads to a few mistakes, this is why Devin FitzpatrickArt Consultants provides some help included in the subsequent paragraphs to avoid having a bad art décor.

Other people do not like looking at art that is placed too high in a house. In putting artworks on the walls, you should first determine the right and proper hanging height of a piece against the wall. This way, its appearance will be balanced to the entirety of the wall space.

It’s only natural to always ensure appropriate scaling. Never put small pieces in a bigger space and the same goes with huge art into a smaller space. Artworks that are originally small can be put on a larger mat or a thicker frame to suit it to the size of bigger walls. But if an “out-of-scale” design is your style, then make sure that each element is out of scale too so that people will know that it is made on purpose.

Having a wall collage is also a good idea but before you drill a lot of holes in your wall, picture first its end result on your mind. And if it provides a good mood and pleasing appearance, then go for it. If you want to put different varieties, make sure to arrange everything properly. You can organize various canvases and framed arts around your house, hang beautiful tapestries or pin up quilts. Art takes any form, so it is not limited to those that can found on the walls, search for more lovely art pieces to put in your house.

Is there a negative space or blank spots in your house? As the name says, it includes nothing, just a blank space. Such space can also be left the way it is and can be just as impactful, you simply need to make it work. This can provide calmness because of its “less hectic” appearance. If you put too much art on a certain space, it might not look good anymore so plan your designs carefully first.

You can also layer your decorations to have that sophisticated-look while connecting every piece to one another. Securing each art piece with one nail is not advisable because Devin Fitzpatrick Art Consultants wants you to have the right hanging tools and hardware first before hanging an art piece. 

You’ve been informed earlier about having art pieces in different forms, not just the ones that can be found on walls. It would be better to have various artworks in your home where you can see them at the top of a dresser or at the back of your couch. Know more about art decorating with Devin Fitzpatrick Art Consultants’ blog posts.

How Ineffective Sales Collateral Can Cost you Your Business

David Packard, co-founder of the global Information Technology (IT) Company Hewlett-Packard (HP), once stated, “Marketing is too important to be left alone with the marketing department”. Other huge international corporations agreed to this statement raising a lot of eyebrows from different individuals. How important is marketing that even the team that is responsible for it is strictly and sometimes, directly supervised and is given great importance by the owner himself?

Marketing, as many business graduates and other related-field would agree, is even given emphasis in top universities and schools. Marketing is reviewed the most vital part of every business. It is a weapon in which depends how the company thrives. It is no wonder marketing materials, or better known as sales collateral, is also treated with high importance.

Your business seeks to provide the right product or service which can satisfy your client. However, there are times when your message falls on deaf ears –or sometimes, on wrong audience. It is then that your well-honed enterprise cannot deliver the profits you are expecting.

The Peterson Group, provider of top quality sales collateral for better marketing, reminds us that companies of all sizes are also challenged by how they can express their feel and look to their customers while prioritizing their client’s desires. You are not the only one who is struggling with ineffective marketing tactic.

Often, customers make their buying decision on the quality of your proposal, sales collateral and website content. You may have the best product in the world but the failure to communicate it to your niche and demonstrate your potential is nil when you do not have the proper tools or have the wrong way of delivering your message, as emphasized by Jakarta Marketing Development Company, one of the leading marketing adviser in Indonesia.

A few common problems on the use of sales collateral include:

·        poorly written content and badly framed proposal;
·        Overrated messages resulting to scam potential;
·        Ineffective sales and marketing collateral;
·        Deficient value of propositions and presentations; and
·        Non-supportive website content

It is sometimes difficult for organizations to recognize the communication obstacles that are preventing them from capitalizing on sales opportunities. Day to day business goals and activities generally encourage a “reactive” rather than “proactive” collateral style, which doesn’t always produce the most impressive results. Executives who become engulfed in business details sometimes struggle to recognize weaknesses in collateral or are too overwhelmed with their jobs to focus on addressing the problem.
