08.03.07 - Pointer Advertising Adds Printing Capabilities

RALEIGH, N.C. – Lindsay Michael, President of Pointer Advertising, announced today that the company is bringing full color, letterpress and large format printing in-house as an option for clients.

By adding full-service printing capabilities to their offerings, Pointer is now able to offer clients complete print production services. From conception to fulfillment, the company is producing client print work under one roof. “Printing is a valuable tool that can effectively drive traffic to a website. This move also allows us to offer merchandising programs that add new income streams to our customer’s businesses,” explains Michael.

Among their new capabilities, Pointer Advertising now offers 4-color process printing on a Komori press. This is used for producing print pieces such as calendars, signing cards, custom playing cards and flyers. If you need something more unique, letterpress printing is available for specialty items such as invitations, announcements and event tickets. Large format printing is also available for posters, banners, tradeshow panels and backlit display advertising.

“We are making it easier for our clients to get their needs met in one place. It just makes sense for us to provide them with that option, especially when adult companies can experience problems getting their materials printed due to content,” said Michael.

Pointer Advertising specializes in brand integrity, marketing and search engine optimization. This expansion will ensure that all print work for clients is closely watched, and the integrity that goes into the initial branding and design shows in the final product. “We can complete a design job and then watch it being printed on the press. It allows us total control over the final piece, eliminating the risk of receiving the job from a vendor with mistakes or color issues. Problems are caught instantly and that saves our clients time and money,” Michael told AVN.com

04.18.07 - All Dogs at Point
It is with a heavy heart that I inform you of the loss of one of our pack. Maggie May left us today after 14 years on this earth. She was a good dog. A lover of table scraps. Loyal and sweet to all. She would only play with one toy, as she didn't need much.
Maggie was eating contaminated dog food from the recent dog food recall. Combined with her age, she could not recover from it.
Please be sure to continue to monitor the dog food recall at MenuFoods.com for the safety of your pets. More brands of dog food are added everyday, so you must check back frequently. Help keep our pets around as long as we can - stay informed.
We will miss you Maggers and will see you again someday. Love you.
"You stole my heart and that's what really hurts"
-Rod Stewart, Maggie May

04.02.07 - Pointer Advertising gets some AVN love
Pointer Advertising Provides Branding for Adult
By: Eddie Adams
Posted: 11:30 am PDT 4-2-2007

RALEIGH, N.C. - Former Adam & Eve Creative Director Lindsay Michael has launched Pointer Advertising, a new firm dedicated to adult industry marketing, design and technological services.
“Adult entertainment is a business just like any other,” Michael told AVN.com. “We have to remain focused and stay true to the brand. We are here to take away the mystery and provide solid, comprehensive solutions for branding and marketing needs of adult companies.”
Michael noted several pitfalls in creating brand recognition. “A lot of times people will try to change their logo over and over,” she said. “Companies will try and create a new logo for every e-mail they send out. It takes seven times for someone to recognize a logo…whenever you change it, you have to start [that recognition] all over again.”
Michael left her position at Adam & Eve in 2005. Since launching her new company online in October 2006, she has managed accounts for Fallen Angel, director Candida Royalle, KSEX Radio, starlets Sunny Leone, Nina Mercedez and Carmen Luvana, and others.
Michael has enlisted Vittoria Mari as the company’s programming director and Gina Pennington as traffic director. The three ladies hope to become a one-stop shop for adult industry marketing, public relations and programming.
“We are armed with an arsenal of tools to boost revenue,” said Michael.
