A look at how our strategic approach & creative thinking helps us exceed expectations
Special deliveries influencers can’t wait to “unbox”
Service: Beauty/Skincare Packaging
What They Needed:
In promoting their new plumping serum, this skin and sun care brand planned to ship samples to beauty influencers in exchange for posting their honest reviews to followers. Since unboxing is a key component of any product video, we knew the packaging needed to be just as appealing as what was inside.
How We Delivered:
Together, we designed a beautiful shipping box that told a compelling story inside and out. We worked closely with their creative team to perfect every detail, right down to a pearlized finish that mimicked the product itself. We also managed the practical details, ensuring the boxes were sturdy enough to protect the bottle but lightweight enough to be mailed cost effectively.

A novel approach to displaying cutting-edge technology
Service: Industrial Display
What They Needed:
This test and measurement tools provider was seeking a breakthrough way to display their latest innovation—a spherical electronic marker designed to locate utility lines underground. The device’s patented shape and small size is a visual benefit, so the display needed to clearly exhibit the product while prominently featuring marketing content.
​​
How We Delivered:
We helped our customer design a disruptive shelf display that presented the device front and center. A back panel featured branded content while a built-in slot held easy-to-grab brochures. We also proposed a different material than the customer had been using previously, which cost 80% less than the originals.
Better catalogs for bigger savings
Service: Telecommunications Catalog
What They Needed:
Our customer came to us with a simple ask: they wanted a higher quality catalog and a more seamless printing experience. What they didn’t expect was how much we’d be able to save them in costs along the way.
​
How We Delivered:
When our customer said they needed better catalogs, we’d already done the legwork. Now, their catalogs are sharper, sleeker, and 60% less expensive.

What They needed:

​
How We delivered:
​Over the course of 2 years we worked to overhaul the entire look of the company. Every individual product was meticulously color matched, proofed and tested. Every new design was followed from concept to completion by a member of the Empower team.

Service: Beauty/Skincare Packaging
What they needed:
A high end gift box with printing that complimented the detailed design.

​
A program worthy of Broadway
Service: Entertainment Playbill
What they needed:
Sleek, professional quality programs delivered on time no matter what. Even though the show must go on, it really needs a playbill to accompany it.

We have been printing the Star Theatre Starbills for years and never missed an opening night.
