Default Who is Interested in a NACHI Flag

Background:
Davison, MI is known as the city of flags. The city has a flag pole with a flag for every state, the USA & the city. At every major street intersection, shopping center & Bank has 3 to 4 flags flying.

Question I asked Nick:
Does NACHI have a flag that I might be able to offer to the city & maybe to the banks that they could fly under the city flag?
MARKETING IDEA to promote NACHI.

Result:
I was asked to check into having a NACHI flag created. I came up with two designs to find out pricing. The two designs turned into four designs by the flag makers. I presented the two designs to Nick with the pricing. The additional two designs from the flag makers is based on the printing style that would be used to print the flags.

Print Styles:
  • Dye Jet Printing - Infinite # of colors, Ink fading from one color to another color possible. ( Price more then double that of Silk Screen Printing )
  • Silk Screen Printing - price increases with additional colors, No fading from one color to another color.
Flag Size & Background Color:
  • 3' x 5' flag single side see through (flies the best)
  • White Background - looks good, least expensive
  • Blue Background - looks good, $15.00 / flag more expensive
Note: Remember that the bar at the top of the flag would be a solid orange-ish color all the way across with silk screening.

They can also make CAR FLAGS also at a very low price. ( $0.60 more expensive for the blue background each flag. )

Nick asked me if I could post them & see who all would be interested in the flags. If we have a large enough interest in them we may go forward with this idea. I think I will do this as a poll.

This would be a NACHI Bennifit.

This would be a Chapter Bennifit

If you think their should be a different design please say so.

I like it and I think it would be a great idea. Another good idea to convey cohesiveness within the body of the organization. Like shirts, etc....

A NACHI flag? You must be joking.

Look at it this way, you are first( company logo on your shirt) NACHI or any other org. is a distant second. I suppose you could put a NACHI deal on your sleave or something , but come on folks You're company is far more important than the Org you belong to.


NACHI is only a marketing tool and nothing more. Use it wisely and prosper.

Todd,

How about a NACHI flag on one side of your truck and an ITA flag on the other?

Every morning, I will get my entire family outside, have my youngest daughter pull out her trumpet and blast out reveile whil I hoist the U.S flag and (under it) the NACHI flag.

NACHI UBER ALUS!!!!

Nice logo, though, Jason.

Note: The above was intended to be sarcastic, i.e. a joke.

The way I see it is that each of us is a single player on a team... Team NACHI.

The players have their name on their shirts but much smaller than the LOGO on their shirt, hat & other things.

The marketing idea here is to get people to recognize NACHI like they do A$HI.

The more they see NACHI the more they will request a NACHI HI.

By promoting NACHI and NACHI Standards you show that you hold yourself in higher standing then someone who is self centered and only thinking of themselves and not of their fellow men & women.

I lived next to a guy who did that with the Canadian flag for years .
It made him feel good and this rubbed of on many others .
I never heard a complaint.
