2008 in review

What a year!

There were a number of exciting developments at RIGHTSLEEVE in 2008. Here are the top 8 moments that defined our year.

1. Swag 2.0 - our inaugural product launch party held in May at the Century Room.

2. New office space in June. This involved a "back to the bricks" design project to create a fully customized space specific to our needs.

3. We welcomed a number of new staff (Lynn, Anna, Ashley, Jackelyn and Lyndsay) - each one an addition to our growing team.

4. Our reality TV debut. In August, Simon and I were filmed pitching the founders of BeautifulPeople.net on merchandise they could use to promote their Canadian site launch.

5. We made a splash at the Incentive Works trade show by driving our RIGHTSLEEVE Mini Cooper onto the show floor and into our booth.

6. Soft launch of the new RIGHTSLEEVE.COM in December. The new site focuses on our value added work for clients through our various case studies.

7. RIGHTSLEEVE Holiday Fest - our first holiday party hosted in our new office space. One guest was so smitten that he had trouble deciphering our office from a typical Virgin Atlantic Guest Lounge.

8. We were awarded an Image Award from the Promotional Products Professionals of Canada (PPPC) for our promotional work with Softchoice Corporation.

Thank you to our friends, clients and trusted partners for making 2008 such a spectacular year. We look forward to building upon this tremendous momentum to carry us to new heights in 2009.
