One of the things I love about our office is our neighbours. Situated in the diverse Armoury District, we’re surrounded by art galleries, architects & builders, chocolatiers, the best cheese shop and Belgian waffle makers in the city and numerous European luxury car dealerships.
The other day a shiny bright-orange Lamborghini was being unloaded off a flatbed truck in front of our office. I couldn’t resist the opportunity to take a picture – there are a number of contrasts and parallels between luxury cars and Steadyhand. Several captions were running through my head, but I thought it would be fun to throw it out to our clients to come up with one. The ‘contest’ was part of our September newsletter, with the prize for the best caption being a Steadyhand running shirt (which are all the rage in the Armoury District).
We received a number of great entries (including a verse from the Talking Heads song Once in a Lifetime) and they’re still coming in, but the winner was, “Steadyhand: we don’t drive these, so our clients can.”
Here are some of the runners-up:
Two ways to get where you want to go fast
Proof ... Our customers are better Investors
Oh Oh. It's the Big Bank again
Two Distinct Brands for those of us that cherish Quality and Precision Performance
The Steadyhand scooter is in the shop and this is the loaner we got!
Thanks to all who participated. And if you’re ever in one of those moods for pumpkin and praline chocolates, 8-year old white cheddar, a Maserati test-drive and a portfolio review, stop by the neighborhood. We’ve got fresh coffee, and maybe even a running shirt waiting for you.
