We regularly say to our customers no matter what stage you are at with your design, we have a team of experienced and varied designers ready to help you get what you need. We have had the full spectrum from scanned in bits of paper with an idea sketched upon, to fully polished Adobe Illustrator AI files, we have seen it all, so do not fear, we are ready and waiting for you and your design, and to take you through our design and manufacturing process.
Below we will show you the story of one of our customers, Bowls Leicestershire, Linda got in touch with us and said she had a rough idea of what she wanted but only a loose sketch that portrayed her vision, of a commemorative coin to celebrate Terry Richards Presidency. After we told her about our free design service the job was on!
The Free Design Service *
A little bit about the free design service. The service is free. Included with the price, should a customer decide after they have the artwork that they do not want to proceed, a design fee of £25 is deducted from the overall amount. We have yet to disappoint a customer with our design service.
Below we will show the stages we took Linda and Bowls Leicestershire Through to achieve the finished commemorative coins.
The First Draft
This is the design we received, it was a great start by our client and gave us a good direction in which to aim. We did some research into the Bowls Leicestershire brand and club as a whole and found out they are keen to incorporate the fox symbolism as The fox is the mascot of Leicestershire, so this was our green card to play.
The Second Draft
As you can see from the second draft, their coin is starting to take great shape with the help of our design service. With our clients approval, we we were keen to move to the next stage.
The Third Draft
After we had approval from our client, we proceeded to go a step further and give them a surprise with the textured look of the coin. Our client was happy with how it looked and were as excited as what we were to see the final coin!
The Design Proof
Before we begin production we always send our clients a design proof so they can do one final check on things like size, quantity, material and overall design. Then, once this has been signed off we can then begin the last stage of the job.
The Final Product
And here are the final coins, 100 3D Die-Cast commemorative coins to acknowledge a moment in time for our clients. We went for 3mm thickness so they have a very tactile and weighty feel to them and are sure to impress the bowling club members upon receiving them.
If you run a sporting club, society or any other type of social club, have you considered the benefits of using either custom made coins, enamel pin badges, pvc keyrings, chenille patches or bespoke medals as ways to promote yourselves? If you are unsure about which item to choose, or even where to begin, we can take you through our design and manufacturing process to get the best results. Please get in touch and we can best advise you on all of the different options.
