We had Allen from Improving Enterprises help with the launch of the new sticviews site, and we printed him a laptop skin to promote his company while he presents at conferences. Improving Enterprises presents at conferences on a regular basis, so Allen is looking forward to promoting his brand more while presenting. His laptop skin fit perfectly on his Apple Macbook -- and the Apple even shines through the vinyl for a cool effect.

Custom Laptop Skins and Laptop Stickers for Your Business

Laptop skins are a great way to brand your company computers at an affordable price.  Nowadays, everyone has a laptop and it’s safer to make sure your company computers are branded with your name or logo so you know what laptops are supposed to be in your office.  Using laptop skins for your company computers offers great support for IT security, and it’s an easy way to monitor the flow of computers in your office.

Brighton District Library uses Sticviews laptop skins to keep track of which laptops they have checked out to patrons and to be able to quickly distinguish which laptops are theirs throughout the library.

The great thing about sticviews laptop skins is that you get to pick the size and shape of your laptop skin.  Most printing companies provide templates for you to choose from, but sticviews allows you to be in control of how large or small your laptop skin is going to be to fit on your personal laptop.  Whether you have a Macbook Pro or a Dell, sticviews laptop skins will work great! Cathe, from Just Something I Made, promoted her blog at the Blissdom conference with a custom laptop skin decal for her Macbook.

Sticviews offers discounts on bulk orders, so the more laptop skins you buy the better deal you get.  The great thing about sticviews is whether you buy one laptop skin or a hundred laptop skins you will get them at an affordable price.  Head over to our request a quote page to get a quote for your company’s laptop skins.

How would you use sticviews to promote your business?

What to bring to a conference? — Custom Decals and Custom Laptop Skins

So, you’ve started a blog or a business and you’re building a following -- now what?  Now is the time to start really learning from the experts.  Tradeshows and conferences are a great way to meet other entrepreneurs in your business area and learn from the best in the industry.  For example, conferences such as Blissdom and BlogHer are for the women bloggers, SxSW for music, film and interactive, Blog World Expo for all bloggers, and many more tradeshows are great opportunities to learn from others.  Sticviews is sponsoring Amy Locurto and Angie Arthur of I Heart Faces for the Blissdom conference this February, and we wanted to pass along some useful hints for being prepared to attend your conference.

1. Business Cards – We just got some really awesome business cards from moo.com and we’re really excited to get them shipped in. Hopefully we’ll have them in time for the next Social Media Club Dallas event with Chris Brogan on the 21^st!  Business cards are a great way to give your contact information to people you meet and helps you follow up with people after the conference is over.  You can always go with innovative creative designs like the ones on Web Designer Depot.  TIP: Make sure to put your social network contact information on your cards (Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn, etc) -- many people forget! And you could always be creative. Amy Locurto handed out her business cards with a little Valentine’s Day sticker gift -- no one threw those away!
   
   

   

2. Create a list before you go of questions you’d like answered or specific people you want to seek out. You don’t want to miss the opportunity to talk to someone who has more experience in particular areas that could really be of benefit to you and your website.  TIP: You can tweet about your questions too!  If you don’t have a smart phone or a laptop for the weekend I recommend you borrowing one for the weekend.
3. Laptop skins – If you are a known blogger, or a beginner, getting a laptop skin with your blog name or banner on it really helps people put a face to the name of your blog. What a great way to promote your blog through technology.  Angie and Amy from I Heart Faces received their laptop skins from sticviews. Remember…it’s hard to recognize faces, but it helps when people can recognize your blog banner or twitter profile photo.  Amy Locurto recommends putting your blog banner and your Twitter photo on the laptop skin works great.
4. iPhone skins – Do you have an iPhone or another smart phone? You can get custom decals to fit on the back of your phone (see below) to also promote your blog.
   
5. T-shirts – This is always a fun thing to have around. Another great way to make your brand known while walking around a conference. Nomee handed out free t-shirts at the Twestival event last year -- great way to build awareness and recognition of your brand.
   
6. Camera – You never know who you are going to meet at the conference, and it’s a great way to showcase things you saw when you blog about your experience.
7. Do some research on the presenters of the conference. It’s good to come in well prepared to soak up the knowledge they have to offer without having to figure out who the people are before hand.
8. Mints or gum – you are going to be doing a lot of talking, and you should pay the favor to your neighbor!

There are always lists on the conference sites of extra things to bring, but this list is pretty comprehensive of things you need to bring!  Is there something you won’t go to a conference without?  Let us know.

Print photos of pets on sticviews using wall decals and custom laptop skins! I like alliteration, apparently!

Sonya here giving an update and ideas for sticviews! I’ve been busy managing the print production here at sticviews, but I wanted to give a quick update on some adorable laptop skin orders we’ve been getting. On sticviews.com, you can upload any photo and create your own custom sticky print -- whether it’s a custom laptop skin, car decal, wall decal, or a window decal. What better way to personalize your home than with photos of your cute pet?

Our custom laptop skins are our most popular product because they’re the most affordable custom skins on the market. Most are about $10. All of the images below are orders by real sticviews customers, except the kitten laptop (I guess we have a lot of dog lovers!).

Wow, the past few days have been a whirlwind here at the sticviews office with car decals and laptop skins! We’ve had lots of Christmas gifts come in and they look fantastic.  We’ve had great designs come in for laptop skins, iPhone decals, custom window art, car decals and more!  I’ll have to upload images of my favorite custom decals tomorrow so you all can see.

Here’s a quick overview of what we do to process orders.  After we prepare the image files for print, we send them to our printer to print on white vinyl, clear vinyl, and cloth stic.

Christmas Custom Decals Printing Galore with Car Decals and Laptop Skins!

Next is the cutting stage.  We have several options for the shapes of decals (rectangle, rounded rectangle, circle, and semi-circle).  Our cutter is really fast and cuts the images very precise!  (I really like the Corvette laptop skin below.) People have been utilizing some awesome designs that are featured in the sticviews gallery, and some have even uploaded their own unique designs.

The last stage is packaging.  Everyone gets a few free samples (a stained glass sticker, a holiday decal, and a cloth stic shirt sticker) and installation tips.  I love the zebra laptop skin, doesn’t it look great?  I’m thinking about sticking my desk with zebra tomorrow!!

So there you a have it -- the custom decal orders are on their way via UPS to the Santa’s across the US!

Merry Christmas to you all!

Keep sticin!

The great thing about sticviews.com is that you can upload any image and print custom decals, laptop skins, custom car decals, or anything sticky!

As always, sticviews custom decals and skins are easy to apply and come off clean. They don’t leave any gummy residue, so they’re great if you want a mess free project or craft, and they’re perfect for temporary decorating (i.e. for Halloween or Christmas).

sticviews was recently featured on some awesome blogs like LivingLocurto.com and HookedOnHouses.net. These blogs are great for all kinds of creative inspiration. I’ve discovered some great ideas for seasonal decor, personalized gifts, interior decorating, and party planning. One of my favorite resources is Amy Locurto’s Free Downloads page, where she links to different websites where you can download free graphics and printables. I wanted to share some of my favorites from her site and others because all of these could be used to print your own custom sticker labels and posters if you simply upload them to sticviews.com!

Convert these free PDF’s to JPEG files, crop the image to the label(s) you want, and upload it to sticviews.com -- add in your own custom text using our text editor in Step 3.

1. 8 Free Halloween Craft Printables

Amy Locurto created these free Halloween graphics for download on ReadersDigest.com, and they would make perfect sticker labels for your Halloween party. In fact, we printed a table cover with Amy’s spider design for her Halloween party:

These coffee cup sleeves are such a clever idea! Stick them on coffee cups when you serve hot apple cider, hot chocolate, or coffee at your party. Download here.

2. Christmas Tags from LivingLocurto.com

Amy Locurto also created some free Christmas Tags for you to label your Christmas gifts and ornaments. Personalize your gifts by printing these adorable Christmas tags on sticviews and sticin’em wherever you want!

3. Wraparound Mailing Labels

iDiY has fantastic links to free downloads. I loved these beautiful envelope wraparounds from A Very Cholocate Wedding. There several different designs to choose from:

4. Free Vintage Frame Organizing Labels

These organizing sticker labels from JustSomethingImade.blogspot.com could be used for so many things -- personalized gift labels, mini photo frames, place cards for seating at wedding, etc.

5. Canning Label Template from Merriment Design

I loved the colors and textures of these canning sticker labels from MerrimentDesign.com -- they would be great printed on our cloth stic material because that material has a fabric texture.

6. Sweet Treat Favor Tin Sticker Labels

InspiredBride.net provides this great do-it-yourself tutorial for making your own custom candy tins as party favors:

These are all great resources for free images to upload and print to sticviews.com, but of course, you can always design your own custom stickers with our free graphics and patterns in our Step 2 gallery and our text editor in Step 3. I hope you’re inspired to start a fun new project with these free downloads for custom sticker printing!
