Since 2006, NMY has had the privilege to help promote the Squire Creek Louisiana Peach Festival, the premier summer event in Ruston, La. We really enjoy working with Nancy, Scott and everyone on the Peach Festival committee! From logo design, to print & outdoor, to TV & radio advertising, and media placement… we help get the word out that PeachFest is an event that is not to be missed.

For most folks in Northeast Louisiana, PeachFest is something we look forward to all year long. Only in Ruston can you get peaches that taste that sweet, and a festival that truly pulls out all the stops to celebrate them. Here is just a taste of what you have to look forward to at the Louisiana Peach Festival this year. So get into the Peach Party spirit. It may be still a few months away, but as we’re trying to push winter out of the door, we want to give you a bit of sunshine wherever we can!

Come out and see us the last weekend in June for shopping, events, great music, food, and everyone’s favorite… peach ice cream! And be sure and check out the Website!

Last week was a great week for us in the web department. Louisiana Cancer Foundation and Northeast Louisiana Cancer Institute websites have been in the works for a few months and last week we were finally able to launch them! We are happy with the result and excited to do our part for people who give so much to our community. Go check them out!

Take a look at this video, a fun project done for one of our favorite causes!

Social media is such an important tool. People now build their entire social, consumer, and professional lives around these networks. It seems like everyone is tweeting, posting, liking & blogging… and smart marketers have picked up on this fact. It may appear a daunting task for a small businesses to enter the fray, but fear not! Make your business a “trending topic” with help from the web-savvy gang at NMY. Websites today can be a place where all social media converge. There are new tools that allow a user to update several social sites at once, letting one message generate in many different places. Why is this important? – Because some people who follow you on twitter may not be on Facebook all the time. And those who read your blog may not have a twitter account. And some people may look at your flickr feed as a way of seeing  your blog updates. - NMY can make your website a tool to reach all of these people, and help your website work for you as a way of keeping people interested in your business, product or service. Friend us on Facebook!

At NMY we’ve been gearing up for the annual American Advertising Federation’s ADDY Awards! Over the past 30 years, we’ve been honored with lots of Gold ADDY’s in our local competition, regional awards, and in the national competition too. This is the result of combining our years of experience with a love for what we do, and applying it to every single project – big or small. The ADDY competition presents a wonderful opportunity to show the creative work we’ve done for our clients, but we’re also excited to see the work other local agencies are producing. Now that another ADDY year is finally here, we’re getting ready to add a few more awards to our walls of fame. We wish all the other contestants “good luck” and hope to see some great local designs come out of this year’s event.

In 2012, we want to emphasize giving back to our community and our planet. With so many good things coming to us and our business, and more to come this year, giving back is a top priority. One of the ways that can be done is by having less waste and more creative ways to reuse the things that still have value. Less waste ultimately means less cost, and less cost means more ability to give. Not only to those in need but to our clients as well.

We wish you all the best of New Years. We believe that 2012 is a year of great things to come. For our business as well as yours!

So please go take a look!

Practically the entire staff got together to make sure each gift was perfectly wrapped and happily tied and taped together. Hope you all enjoy your gift, and we hope that you use them!

We are so fortunate. Not only as Americans but also as a design and advertising firm. We get to come to work and do what we love everyday. The holiday season is a reason to give back to those who do not have what we do in this world. It’s a way of thanking God for the fortunate path he has put us on and making sure that all of His are taken care of. Because although giving is a year long task set upon us, Christmas gives us a chance to make it a focus and supplies many outlets in which to do so. These bags were given to the Salvation Army through a food and toy drive hosted by Ryan Auto Group. Instead of offering our clients more of what they already have, they were all given a small gift and this was given in their honor to those who have so little. So, thank you all for being so willing to give with us.

We pulled out all of our most festive and tacky Christmas attire for this fabulous photograph. With nothing else to do but laugh at ourselves and with each other, we came together and went over the top to catch a moment bursting at the seams with holiday cheer. Whether that is a good thing or a bad thing…we’ll let you decide. Either way, we hope you enjoy our quirky interpretation of the Holidays and hope you’re having a wonderful Christmas season.
