    <title>The Economy in Newton Iowa</title>
    <description>Well lets start with the current gas price of $3.85 per galloon and no decrease in site. There is a buzz about a depression setting in but I think people are managing pretty well, things dont seem to be slowing down too much in my industry so this leads me to beleive that we are heading in the right direction. </description>

      <title>The New Year</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;2009 is starting out much the same as 2008 finished off. Seems this may be the year of the never ending sale as the economy seems to be looking for a much needed boost. Its hard to imagine a modern day Depression and to hear people call it that sometimes takes my breath away. We have come so far since then and yet it seems maybe we have come full circle. Advertising is important with the economy the way it is it is important to advertise to get your name out there to sell your product, your message and most of all to let people know what you stand for. Calendars, pens, mugs, keychains, magnets, these things are not just cheep giveaways, they are a way for companies to build a connection with the consumer, a way to show your community that you still care that your spending part of your small budget on them. That you still value them and you know that times are rough but you appriciate their business. Now is the time to stand out to stand up to show people that even though money is tight and times are hard you still care about them, offering a free promotional product with your message on it is a great way to stay ahead of the competition!&lt;/p&gt;</description>
