Holiday Notebooks 2020
2020 was filled with a multitude of both challenges and victories. Every year is different but 2020 undoubtedly was filled with more change than normal. However, we are proud to say the SunDance team has grown even stronger and more agile this year than ever before. We are reflecting on the silver lining the COVID crazy year has brought us, like this notebook! We created this notebook using solely remnant stock, which controlled the cost and aligned perfectly with our sustainability goals, just another silver lining! The finished product is an interesting blend of paper, color and textures. The cover was produced using #100 cover Black felt paper and foil stamped with clear foil. The interior on the notebook also has a 2021 calendar and an "Out with the old, in with the new" checklist all foil stamped with silver foil. The notebook also includes a silver belly band produced using #10 pt. cover and 1mil gloss silver lamination. We LOVED creating this notebook!

Personalizing Bulk Mailings Through the Magic Of Geo-Mapping
When you receive a piece of bulk mail in your mailbox, how do you normally react? Well, if you are like me, you interpret this as junk mail. As if the company attempting to get your attention, and by extension, your business, is saying “hey, can you please throw this in the trash for us!?”
What Makes SunDance Labels Different?
Product labeling has a very specific purpose. It helps to market a product while providing the information and messaging necessary for the customer to understand the product's use and ingredients. While it may seem like a simple process to place a label and ingredient list on a product - it can become a very complicated and involved process. Product labeling is a significant part of the product life cycle and can involve a variety of moving parts and printing processes.

The Impact of High-Visibility Enhancements on Shelf Presence: A Second Study
Capturing consumer attention can result in big business. High-visibility enhancements, further discussed in our previous post, increase product visibility, stimulate attraction, hold attention, and convey an image of value. High-visibility enhancements allow packages to jump off the shelf and become prominent in front of customers. The An Initial Study into the Impacts of High-visibility Enhancements on Shelf Presence case study indicates clear advantages to foil stamping on packaging and other high-visibility enhancements. This secondary study complements the previous study and provides additional validation, while also taking an additional step by evaluating purchase data. It shows that in a highly competitive category, where consumer personal preference is a significant factor in the purchase decision-making process, the addition of a high-value enhancement to packaging significantly increased the likelihood of purchase.
