"When we contracted with BlueWater Business Promotions to help us redesign our brochures, I don’t think our committee understood how the project would develop. Karen helped us to understand and accept that our current logo was really doing nothing for us, and worked with us to design a new logo that helped people get a sense of who we were just by looking at our logo. Her patience through the whole project was amazing! By incorporating photos into our brochures and guiding us through the selection of the perfect paper to show off the photos and draw people’s attention to our services, our brochures went from plain and ordinary to eye-catching. Karen helped us reduce the number of different brochures that we were printing, by guiding us through the process of how to say more with fewer words. Now people notice our brochure! Karen also introduced us to rack cards which are even more “punchy,” getting people’s attention and giving them the bare-bones facts that help the reader to understand who we are and what we do in the community. Working with Karen is always a pleasant experience."

“The Huronia Foundation for the Arts was more than pleased with our first 3 Arts and Culture Directories, designed and printed by Karen Newell of Bluewater Business Promotions. Karen’s professionalism, expertise and innovative ideas made the first 3 editions (3 years consecutive) extremely successful. Our directories are eye-catching and beautifully completed, and very appealing to the consumer. Bluewater Business Promotions’ follow-up was equally as attentive as the work on the publication.”
- Marianne Braid, Director, and Chair of the Directory Committee, Huronia Foundation for the Arts
“Karen takes the clients concepts and ideas... and translates them into printed form, magically showcasing the essence and flavour of their organization or business. Whether designing business cards or publishing unique books, Karen's skill and attention to detail has always translated into spectacular works. Thank you Karen, for treating each and every project you've ever done for me, as if it were your own! You have an amazing talent for taking an idea and bringing it's essence to life on paper. Wow!”

- Catherine Hayhoe – Owner & Program Coordinator, A Friend In Need Home Health Care
“BlueWater performed outstanding creative work on our 2008 – 2009 Antique & Classic Boat Society Scholarship Endowment Fundraising brochure. Working with BlueWater on the brochure was a real pleasure for me and I know that the entire board appreciated the design skills and the informative approach taken in working with our organization. Working with BlueWater Business Promotions provided ACBS with a beneficial “one stop” shop approach, providing design, printing and assembly of our brochure, envelope and letterhead package. This made the job a whole lot easier for us. BlueWater's quick response in producing the handout flyer for next year’s pre events and AGM in Muskoka and the quality of the material resulted in BlueWater being asked to do the design work and printing for additional projects next year.”
- James D. Smith – Fundraising Chairperson, Antique and Classic Boat Society (ACBS)
“Starting a new business in a highly competitive, image sensitive industry, we were looking for someone who could help us develop a competitive edge by designing a polished and professional corporate image. We have been very pleased and impressed with the service and product consistently delivered by BlueWater Business Promotions and consider Karen an integral part of our growth and success. Moreover, we receive regular compliments with respect to our logo, letterhead, web site, signage, and advertisements. We look forward to many more years of excellent work.”
