Client Background and Challenges Section
How do you create collateral people WANT to read?
Founded in 1994, Happy Faces Personnel Group is a full-service, innovative staffing partner to Georgia employers. As their Director of Operations, Michael was in dire need of a brochure for an upcoming trade show that would:
- Capture readers’ attention, by identifying with their staffing “pain points.”
- Explain Happy Faces’ services, core values, mission and vision.
- Clearly demonstrate the unique value Happy Faces delivers, with a focus on cost-effectiveness.
- Clearly demonstrate the unique value Happy Faces delivers, with a focus on cost-effectiveness.
But beyond being informative and convincing, Michael wanted a sales tool that was really useful. “Non-corporate-y.” Something that clients and prospects would want to read – and even share with co-workers and friends.
The Solution
Well, at least it wasn’t for Haley Marketing. Before diving into the project, our team consulted with Michael to:
- Clarify his goals for the piece, intended audience and other project requirements.
- Determine how far he was willing to “push the envelope” with humor, so it complemented Happy Face’s brand and resonated with their target audience.
- Review ways to increase the value and “shelf life” of the brochure (because, you know, gum).
- Ensure an efficient, seamless service experience – and deliver an amazing final product.
With a clear understanding of the project’s scope and a solid creative direction, Haley Marketing’s creative team got to work.
Michael? Well, he was free to focus on his job and preparing for that big conference he was planning attend.
The Results
That’s no coaster…
…but it is a brochure that Michael referred to as “AWESOME!” Here are a few highlights:

- And fits nicely inside a pocket or folio.
Happy Faces’ brochure is a fun, engaging sales tool that has yielded incredible measurable results.
