Dear CustOMER,
For thousands of you this is the very first time you are receiving an email from us. That's because I am literally too stupid to have noticed that, for the past few years, there has been a problem with the integration of our online orderers with the Mailchimp platform that we use to send our weekly emails. Whoops!
So ... to all of you: Welcome to the now 35 year old REMO adventure. Our story HERE.
2022 and 2023 have been eventful years. In a nutshell we have:
1. Outsourced our T Shirt Designs to a quality print-on-demand partner in Melbourne
2. Revived our famous Stripey Things range, returning our production to Australia
3. Refreshed our website (since 2016) with a shiny new 2023 version
4. Acknowledged our storytelling DNA by introducing REMO Stories
5. Launched a new REMORANDOM printed book series and subscription service
As regards REMORANDOM #1 … the new book is being positively received. Some are calling it "TikTok in Print" and we'll take that compliment. Read all 31 5-star reviews HERE.
... and let me leave you with a repeat of what I said in our latest email:
OK, I'm just going to say it out loud: REMORANDOM is a celebration of curiosity and invention; and just happens to be THE PERFECT GIFT for friends, team members and clients.
Over night we received an enquiry [that has since become a firm order] from someone looking to customise a quantity of RR#1. He writes: "I work in tech research. My role is to provide insights and future vision, etc. for my clients, so figured a physical book would be refreshing - and it keeps on theme with the idea of providing insights and telling stories." And then this morning we received another order for 64 copies (2 cartons) from long time Melbourne CustOMER Dave Deveny for distribution to "friends, staff and clients" of his Cuckoo Creative brand communications agency.
Book customisation ideas would include: enclosing your own postcard (Dave's solution), applying a sticker to the inside cover (what we suggested for the tech researcher), and the enclosure of a printed bookmark containing your message. FYI we use Vistaprint HERE.
Also, yesterday I attended the SXSW Sydney conference and got to meet Rohit Bhargava the founder of the Non-Obvious Company. He agreed that the randomness of RR would be an effective way to "get people out of their algorithm"; so, not just a source of interest and delight, but also potentially a way to trigger fresh thinking and invention. Yes!
So, if this sounds potentially interesting to you, then I would get onto it ASAP, as a couple of big orders could leave us short of copies as we approach the end of the year.
The ordering process is self-service. Discounts are factored in to the higher quantities e.g. if you order 32, the unit price drops from $40 to $28. Start playing with quantities HERE.
Cheers,
