Well, it’s my 600th episode (yay!), and every time I hit a milestone, I put a lot of pressure on myself to find something extra special to celebrate the occasion—and this 600th fold actually fell into my lap.
What makes it so great:
- What really makes this marketing package stand out is the attention to detail across every category of design and production.
- I also really like that it’s an exercise in restraint—not splashy and in-your-face. There’s a quiet confidence and quality in this piece. They spent exactly where they needed to—no more, no less.
Thanks for celebrating the 600th episode with me. I appreciate you! I also want to thank all of my sponsors who support the show—if you’ve never checked them out, please give them a look.
Thanks for watching and subscribing. Cheers to 600 amazing folds in 12 years!
