Dallas, TX (1888PressRelease)
March 13, 2008 - Drew Barrymore announced on Monday's Oprah Winfrey Show that she is donating $1 million to the World Food Programme to help feed children in Africa. With a giant novelty check in hand, Barrymore drew attention to both the cause and the donation itself. Similarly, Oprah uses these novelty oversized checks as a way to excite contestants and viewers alike on her new hit reality show, “Oprah’s Big Give.”
Whether it’s an investment group making a big donation to a charitable trust, someone winning the lottery, or Oprah and Drew Barrymore giving millions of dollars to the children of Kenya, there always seems to be a big novelty check present at these events ready to be handed over to the beneficiary. Having seen these custom-made big checks for the majority of their lives, many viewers just accept giant presentation checks as part of the backdrop of charity (like reporters or a ribbon cutting or politicians up for reelection). But where do they actually come from?
For someone who works in marketing, advertising, public relations or is an assistant of any kind, the day will most likely come when someone asks them to produce one of these custom large checks out of thin air, and most people will realize that they are absolutely clueless as to where to find them.
Dallas sign company, Signazon.com (the industry leader in producing large novelty checks), has got designing, personalizing and getting novelty oversized checks out to their customers down to an art. Anthony Russell, head of Internet Marketing at Signazon.com, says that custom big checks are, “an inexpensive way to promote, market, and advertise just about anything.”
“The great thing about cheap novelty checks is that they’re economical, easy to personalize, and they make any run-of-the-mill event look like a really big deal. If you want press attention for a charitable donation that is being made and your budget is limited, cheap big checks will add instant credibility to the occasion.”
Oversized checks are typically made from foam core board or corrugated plastic and can range in size from 18x36 inches to 30x60 inches. As an added bonus, Signazon.com recently added the dry-erase feature to their checks, meaning that no matter how big or small a company or their budget is, they can have dry erase large checks to use again and again at every event.
