To show its support and gratitude for military troops stationed overseas, Pinnacle Promotions collects donations for inclusion in care packages organized by Give 2 The Troops.

Atlanta, GA – Pinnacle Promotions, which is a promotional marketing agency trusted by the world's leading companies, has launched a campaign to collect miscellaneous personal care items, food goods, and entertainment products for Give 2 The Troops, a nonprofit organization that ships letters and care packages to America's armed forces overseas. Since December 2002, Give 2 The Troops' efforts have touched approximately one million deployed U.S. troops.

While many deployed soldiers have loved ones at home, others lack a solid support system away from the front lines. Pinnacle's six-week long initiative reinforces the mission of Give 2 The Troops to communicate to all soldiers that their service is not in vain and the American people are thankful for their dedication.

Senior Graphic Designer Melissa Rutledge states, "I have several friends and family members in the armed forces and feel that Give 2 The Troops is a wonderful organization. I'm thrilled to have the opportunity to work with them."

Rutledge, whose personal relationships inspired her to spearhead Pinnacle's latest campaign, adds, "With our donation drive at Pinnacle Promotions, I hope that we can help bring smiles and comfort to our deployed men and women and let them know that all of us back home appreciate them and their efforts!"

Along with other members of Pinnacle's Philanthropy Committee, Rutledge set a goal of collecting 225 items. Based on the company's previous philanthropic activities benefitting organizations like Annandale Village, Positive Growth, Inc., and the Atlanta Community Food Bank, the company anticipates exceeding this original target.

Dedicated to simplifying the promotional products shopping experience for consumers, Pinnacle Promotions announces the launch of three new promotional product categories.

Atlanta, GA - Pinnacle Promotions, Inc., a leading promotional products distributor, has launched three new categories on its website that aim to offer promotional product ideas that are specifically tailored to the needs of Pinnacle's consumers. Unlike general product categories, such as apparel or drinkware, that categorize items based on their type, these new divisions, Seasonal Products, Envelope Stuffers and RocketShip Direct Imports™, group items based on specific marketing needs that may correlate to specific events or types of promotions.

The Seasonal Products category, as its name suggests, is merchandised with items that correlate to a specific time of year. For example, it currently includes items such as sunglasses, umbrellas, and golf products, as these are items that are used most frequently during the springtime. The Envelope Stuffers category is comprised of small and lightweight items that are ideal for use in direct mail marketing campaigns.

And for those clients who are placing high volume orders. they have the opportunity to purchase items from Pinnacle's new RocketShip Direct Imports™ category. Pinnacle has partnered with overseas manufacturers and global vendors to offer a new global importing service that provides additional color and customization options and lower pricing on many of the items it already offers. Pinnacle Promotions has already seen enormous success with its RocketShip 24-Hour Express Service™, seeing over 50% of its orders produced through this service where purchases are processed within one business day. The RocketShip Direct Imports™ service targets those consumers who have at least 8-10 weeks until they need their promotional products.

"The task of purchasing promotional products can often be overwhelming as there are literally thousands of different items to choose from," explains Kim Johnson, Merchandising Manager at Pinnacle. "These categories help customers to narrow in on the products that will best serve their individual marketing needs."

Johnson further explained that Pinnacle Promotions has formulated its company as a promotional products marketing agency, rather than simply a promotional products distributor, aiming to provide consumers with customized solutions for their branding and marketing needs. The new product categories are just the latest example of their efforts to continue to do so.

Dedicated to providing the best purchasing experience for consumers, Pinnacle Promotions enhances its website with 360-degree images of their collection of promotional products.

Atlanta, GA - Leading promotional products distributor Pinnacle Promotions, Inc. announces the addition of original 360-degree imagery to its website, bringing their online catalog to life. The new technology provides visitors with an interactive shopping experience, allowing them to view full spherical panoramas of products.

The visual effect of the 360-degree images is accomplished through a process that assembles multiple photographs taken of different angles of the promotional products into one fluid animation. Users have the option to view a still image or the 360 degree animation on each product page. They are also able to interact with the animation and 'grab' the image to rotate the product to any angle with their mouse.

"The new 360 degree images offer a much more intimate and detailed view of our promotional products," said Mitch Weintraub, Chief Executive Officer. "We want our customers to be confident in their purchases and with this imagery we are able to better communicate product features, while enhancing consumers' visual enjoyment of our site."

Pinnacle has always been on the cutting edge of technology innovation in order to provide customers with a higher value shopping experience, Weintraub explained. Just last year the company unveiled a newly designed website that features enhanced product customization tools and a streamlined ordering process. The 360-degree imagery is their newest initiative in making it easier for clients to purchase the products they need for their marketing efforts.

The 360-degree images are currently applied to over 3,500 promotional products on Pinnacle's site and plans are in place to continue adding this imagery to more products in the future.

Pinnacle Promotions has long encouraged their employees to become stronger leaders in the promotional products industry, providing ongoing education and promoting from within. Now, with the introduction of this new award, owners Mitch and Dave Weintraub have extended their leadership philosophy to entrepreneurial students at Emory University.

Atlanta, GA- Pinnacle Promotions, a leader in the promotional products industry, announces the Pinnacle Promotions Adopt a Scholar Award in partnership with Emory University's Goizueta Business School. The award is part of an annual scholarship gift from Pinnacle owners Mitch and Dave Weintraub, and will go to support a student with proven leadership skills and an entrepreneurial vision.

Mitch and Dave have always had entrepreneurial spirits; as Mitch neared the end of his M.B.A. program at Emory in 1994, the brothers founded their promotional products company with an innovative agency approach. Their unique approach to selling promotional products eliminated the industry's commission-based model, instead creating a vertically integrated company that offers everything from promotional products distribution to creative design and even web programming, all under one roof.

"My brother and I worked hard to turn our vision for an integrated approach to promotional products into a reality," said Mitch, CEO. "As a result, we want to give back to the Emory community in a way that will encourage leadership, inspire passion, and allow students to bring their ideas to fruition, as we were fortunate enough to be able to do."

According to Mitch, this year's winner, Joshua Booher exceeds these qualifications with his leadership experience at WMRE, Emory's radio station, and as the Vice President of Publicity for Synergy, an Emory Student Organization. Booher, who currently holds a 4.0 GPA, will graduate from the Goizueta Business School with a Bachelor of Business Administration in May 2012, earning concentrations in film and media management, marketing, and operations, as well.

Supporting Booher and other students with the Pinnacle Promotions Adopt a Scholar Award is the latest initiative in Pinnacle's long-standing commitment to the community. Previous philanthropic efforts from the promotional products supplier include: contributing to Oxfam International, donating promotional products to adults with developmental disabilities through the Annandale Village, and supporting the Georgia Association of Promotional Products Professionals annual fundraising campaign.

Leading promotional products distributor Pinnacle Promotions is enacting new eco-friendly practices to continue its dedication to helping the environment.

Atlanta, GA - June 18, 2010 - Continuing its efforts to encourage environmentally friendly behaviors both within the company and the community as a whole, Pinnacle Promotions, Inc., one of the nation's leading promotional products agencies, has enacted new eco-friendly initiatives.

These include replacing light fixtures with energy-efficient compact fluorescent light bulbs, installing new faucets that have flow restrictor valves to reduce the amount of water expended, and displaying signs in the bathrooms and kitchen area that read 'Keep Pinnacle Green! Conserve water and conserve paper' as reminders to act in accordance with the new eco-friendly practices. Additionally, each employee signed an Ecology Pledge Form, committing to take small steps toward a sustainable environment such as turning off computer monitors at night, driving less, recycling when possible, and using reusable bags when grocery shopping.

"We have had a really positive response from the employees; they understand that changing our generation's habits to benefit the environment will help not only us but future generations as well," said Deidre O'Hara, Human Resources. "It's important to recognize our actions have an impact on the outside world both as individuals as well as a company."

Pinnacle Promotions has always been dedicated to helping the environment and these are just the latest steps in the company's eco-friendly efforts. In November 2009 Pinnacle began a paperless system, greatly reducing the amount of paper used in the office by sending faxes electronically and using an online approval system that allows customers to confirm orders and approve products via e-mail. Pinnacle Promotions also trademarked a line of EarthSmart™ promotional products that are made from natural, organic or recycled materials and inflict minimal to no harm on the environment. Additionally, Pinnacle Promotions contributes 1 percent of all EarthSmart™ purchases to 1% for the Planet, an international network of more than 1,700 environmental organizations all committed to raising and distributing funds to non-profit groups in need across the globe.

Atlanta, GA - May 20, 2010 - Pinnacle Promotions donated two carloads of promotional products samples to the Georgia Association of Promotional Products Professionals (GAPPP) for their 2010 fundraising campaign which benefits the Kids In Need Foundation.

Carr, wrote, "I especially want to thank Pinnacle Promotions who brought 2 Car loads of samples to our sample drive on Friday. Because of them we donated over 500lbs of goods to the program. (We donated over 300lbs last year)."

Promotional Products Association International (PPAI), the promotional products industry trade organization of which Pinnacle Promotions is a member, formed a relationship with Kids in Need in 2008 with promotional product donations from exhibitors at the PPAI MarketShow and Imprinted Sportswear Show co-located in Fort Worth, Texas that year. 2010 was actually the second year that the GAPPP organized an event to raise supplies for the Kids In Need Foundation.

The Kids in Need Foundation is a recognized 501(c)(3) charitable organization that was founded in 1995 and aims to provide free school supplies to children in need throughout the nation so that they are prepared to learn and succeed. Additionally, through financial donors and program sponsors they are able to award grants for teachers to enact classroom projects as well as develop school supplies giveaway programs within different communities through their School Box program.

Atlanta, GA – November 10, 2009 – Always dedicated to helping the environment, Pinnacle Promotions has gone paperless. Since the beginning of November, Pinnacle has enacted new eco-friendly initiatives, including efforts to reduce the number of items that employees print, fax, and file.

Using an innovative system, employees can now send confirmations to vendors via their e-mail. This process eliminates the amount of paper flowing in and out of the office, as it has also decreased the number of tangible documents Pinnacle receives from manufacturers.

One thing that hasn’t changed is Pinnacle’s dedication to service and open management style. In fact, the suggestion to go paperless was an employee-led initiative, with Controller Steve Jennings at the forefront. After noticing how much the company relied on file folders, sticky notes, labels, and paper, Jennings was astounded by the amount of waste, both environmentally and financially. In attempts to reduce this waste, Jennings encouraged Pinnacle employees to rethink the way they send purchase orders and confirmation letters.

"Our online approval system makes sense for the way we do business," said Katie McCormick, Senior Account Coordinator. "Not only are we doing something good for the environment, but paperless is actually a more efficient system for our clients and for us."

McCormick says that customers find the new system easy to use, and that Pinnacle has received positive feedback both from clients and employees. This is not surprising, given Pinnacle’s long history of encouraging eco-friendly initiatives both within the company and the community as a whole. Pinnacle’s corporate social responsibility plan includes an employee-led Green Committee, as well as an entire line of promotional EarthSmart™ products made from natural, organic or recycled material. Pinnacle Promotions donates 1% of all sales from this line to 1% for the Planet, a network of more than 1,700 not-for-profit environmental organizations worldwide.

Dedicated to contributing its resources to charitable causes, Pinnacle Promotions, Inc. will donate hundreds of promotional products to the Annandale Village, a community for adults with developmental disabilities.

 

Atlanta, GA – October 7, 2009 – Pinnacle Promotions will donate over 200 individual promotional products to the Annandale Village, a private, nonprofit, residential community for adults with developmental disabilities, to be used as carnival prizes and promotional giveaways during their annual Family Weekend October 15-18.

“Pinnacle Promotions has a long history of supporting the Annandale community,” said Executive Director of Annandale Adam Pomeranz. “It’s not always easy asking for donations, especially in the recent economic times, but it was so wonderful to have someone on the other end of the phone, not only willing to help in any way that they can, but excited about the opportunity to do so too.”

In previous years, Pinnacle Promotions has donated golf bags to be auctioned off at Annandale’s annual “Jazzy Thing” Fundraising Event, which brings in an average of $100,000 each year to provide scholarships for those who are less fortunate to be able to attend their programs. Pinnacle has also offered pricing discounts on promotional products they have ordered, including staff t-shirts for this year’s Family Weekend. The Annandale community serves over 125 individuals with special needs, mostly from areas throughout the Southeast, but with residents from as far west as Nebraska and as far north as New York. Their annual Family Weekend offers an opportunity for families to reunite with their loved ones who reside at Annandale and provides fun activities for them to share together.

The Annandale Village is located on a beautiful 55-acre campus approximately 30 miles north of Atlanta in Suwanee, GA. It aims to provide a safe and interactive society for its residents that allows them to enhance their own abilities with its life assistance programs, while still upholding a sense of independence, all in a warm and accepting environment. Annandale boasts both residential and non-residential services, ranging from independent living to skilled nursing care, depending on individual needs. Its residents range in age from 18 to 86 and have a primary diagnosis of mild to moderate retardation, other developmental disability, or traumatic brain injury.

ATLANTA, September 8, 2009 – To prepare for flu season, Pinnacle Promotions has already begun to equip its employees and clientele with the necessary tools to stay healthy and virus-free.

The H1N1 virus, or Swine Flu, is expected to infect between 30 and 50% of the American population this fall and winter, and though the virus is highly contagious, there are plenty of preventive measures that can better prepare you and those around you to fend off this unpleasant, and potentially deadly, illness.

Pinnacle’s owners Mitch and Dave Weintraub consider the health and happiness of their employees to be of utmost importance, and thus have implemented a number of policies and programs to reinforce this core value. Pinnacle employees, as well as their families, have the option of receiving a flu shot or flu mist during work hours, additional hand sanitizing dispensers have been placed in communal areas, and educational information related to the flu has been made readily available. Pinnacle Promotions is taking a proactive stance on keeping H1N1 out of its office, and advises its customers to do the same.

The CDC has released statements advising civilians to take the typical pre-emptive steps to minimize the spread of germs during flu season, such as washing hands or using antibacterial hand sanitizer often, especially after touching your face; covering your mouth and nose with a tissue when sneezing; and staying informed about the latest developments related to flu vaccinations and new strains of virus that may arise.

Dave Weintraub, Chief Operating Officer and Owner of Pinnacle Promotions, says, "With all of the fear surrounding the flu in general this year we're taking precautions to protect our staff as much as possible.  Our goal is to make it easy for our entire staff to prevent the illness in the office and to control any outbreaks if people here do get sick."

Through content posted on the official Pinnacle Promotions blog, YouTube channel, and Twitter accounts, the company has emphasized a variety of promotional products that can help control the spread of germs. Pinnacle Promotions offers a wide array of promotional hand sanitizers, tissues and wipes that can be customized with your brand’s name and logo. By distributing custom imprinted healthcare accessories, you will be showing your valued customers and employees that your company cares about their well-being. They will be grateful that you have provided useful promotional products to nip flu germs in the bud.

ATLANTA, May 7, 2008 – Mitch Weintraub, President and Founder of Pinnacle Promotions and Emory University alumnus, spoke about his innovative business strategy at today's Goizueta Entrepreneur network breakfast.

Mitch’s speech, entitled “The Challenges of Leading a Fast Growing Company,” covered the successes and trials of growing a dynamic business. In front of a panel of his peers, he discussed how he has successfully grown Pinnacle into one of the nation’s leading promotional marketing agencies.

ATLANTA, April 26, 2008 – Pinnacle Promotions’ employees rolled up their sleeves, put on their gloves and got down and dirty for Earth Share of Georgia’s Corporate Green Day Challenge 2008.

From 9 a.m. to 12 p.m. Saturday morning, Pinnacle employees joined with volunteers from Cox Communications, The Coca-Cola Company and Harry Norman Realtors to clear overgrown brush at Chastain Park in Atlanta. Volunteers gathered downed branches, shrubs and vines and carried the removed brush to a wood chipper manned by volunteers. The wood chips were then used to line walking trails throughout the park.

The goal of the Green Day Challenge is to make Georgia cleaner and greener by cleaning parks and streams, clearing privet and other invasive vegetation and mulching trees.  Corporate groups for this year’s event were divided among 20 locations in and around Atlanta. Pinnacle Promotions, Cox Communications, The Coca-Cola Company and Harry Norman Realtors made it their goal to create more usable green space for Chastain Park patrons.   

“The whole team worked so hard picking up downed limbs, ivy, brush and even trees,” said Rob Wellon, EarthSmart™ Brand Manager. “We worked up quite a sweat and we left Chastain exhausted but very satisfied about what we were able to accomplish.”

Three hours, a little bit of blood, a lot of sweat and eight cases of poison ivy later, Pinnacle completed the Corporate Challenge. Pinnacle employees returned their gloves and left to join the other volunteers at the “After Work Party” at the Chattahoochee Nature Center, leaving behind a noticeably different Chastain Park.

“I know that we will participate in the Green Day Challenge again next year,” said Wellon. “The Pinnacle team had a great experience at Chastain. The work was tough but rewarding. Everyone was excited to take part in helping Chastain regain its ‘green’ beauty and we look forward to doing it again next year!”

In addition to participation in the Corporate Green Day Challenge, Pinnacle’s Green Committee arranged and participated in a “Bring-Your-Own Bowl and Spoon” Ice Cream Social on Earth Day, sponsored and participated in Earth Hour on March 29, 2008 and distributed reusable grocery bags to all Pinnacle employees at the beginning of April.

“Our Green Committee is dedicated to promoting an EarthSmart™ way of life within our company as well as within our community,” said Wellon. “We are always on the look-out for eco-events in our area.”

ATLANTA, April 22, 2008 – To celebrate Earth Day, Pinnacle Promotions hosted a “Bring-Your-Own Bowl and Spoon” Ice Cream Social for all Pinnacle employees. With this theme, the Green Committee hopes to encourage a move away from disposable plates and utensils to a more EarthSmart™ way of living.

 

Employees were also motivated to do something different for Earth Day including bringing a lunch, riding a bike to work, using alternate forms of transportation and walking to lunch. During the social, employees were encouraged to join a company-wide pledge to live a more EarthSmart™ way of life. With hopes of 100 percent employee participation, Rob Wellon, EarthSmart™ Brand Manager, is confident that this voluntary pledge will be successful.

 

“With the EarthSmart™ Pledge, we want to get a renewed commitment to eco-friendly living from all Pinnacle employees,” said Wellon, “as well as give some simple tips on how employees can ‘green’ their lifestyles.”

 

With several eco-friendly initiatives already underway at Pinnacle, The Green Committee has provided employees easy ways to make a difference. From asking employees to turn off computer monitors at night, implementing a large-scale office recycling program to encouraging employee car-pooling, The Green Committee’s programs have all been successful to date.

 

In addition to the “Bring-Your-Own Bowl and Spoon” Ice Cream Social, Pinnacle Promotions’ Green Committee planned and sponsored several events throughout March and April. These events included distributing reusable bags to all employees, planning, sponsoring and participating in Earth Hour on March 29, 2008 and participating in Earth Share of Georgia’s Corporate Green Day Challenge on April 26, 2008.

ATLANTA, April 18, 2008 – From Friday evening to early Saturday morning, Pinnacle volunteers participated in the American Cancer Society’s Relay for Life® at Emory University in Atlanta. During the overnight event, the Pinnacle team, along with 44 other Atlanta groups, took turns walking and running laps around Woodruff Physical Education Center’s track in support of the fight against cancer.

Those participating in Relay for Life® were asked to set both individual and team goals for the event. To bolster support of Pinnacle’s team, in-office events were held throughout the month of April. These activities included a Mexican Fiesta, an office sample sale and a “clean-out-your-closet” clothing drive to raise money for Relay.

In addition to office events and individual fundraising efforts, the Pinnacle team sold products at the event to raise even more money for Relay.  Pinnacle sold promotional products including bags, water bottles, fans and umbrellas all imprinted with the Relay for Life® logo.  

Pinnacle’s Philanthropy Committee, lead by Team Leader, Rayla Bailey, organized Pinnacle’s Relay for Life® team.

“I am so proud of Pinnacle Promotions for all the hard work that was put into fundraising,” said Bailey. “This is a busy time of year for us all but everyone pushed through and we surpassed our goal by $1,270. That is amazing! It feels really good to be part of a company that is dedicated to giving back to the community.”

Raising a total of $3,270, Pinnacle’s team came in fourth as a top fundraising team for Emory’s Relay for Life®. To date, the 44 participating teams have raised $49,000 and are less than $1,000 away from their goal of $50,000. This number continues to grow as more donations trickle in.

“We had a great turnout at the event with more people attending than had originally signed up,” said Bailey. “I found that Relay for Life® was a great opportunity for employees to interact outside the office. We raised money for a good cause and bonded as team. I could not be prouder of our performance at the event this year.”

In the end, the Pinnacle team agreed Relay was a success.

“Relay for Life® was an incredible experience!” said Heather Peterson, Pinnacle’s Marketing Manager.  “It was nice to get out in the local community and mingle with the other participants and survivors.  Cancer affects so many lives and it was a wonderful opportunity to show our support.”

About the American Cancer Society’s Relay for Life®
Relay For Life®, the American Cancer Society's signature event, is a fun-filled overnight experience designed to bring together those who have been touched by cancer. At Relay, people from within the community gather to celebrate survivors, remember those lost to cancer and to fight back against this disease. Relay participants help raise money and awareness to support the American Cancer Society in its lifesaving mission to eliminate cancer as a major health issue. During Relay For Life® events, teams of people gather at schools, fairgrounds or parks and take turns walking or running laps. The events are held overnight to represent the fact that cancer never sleeps. Through the survivors' lap and the luminaria ceremony, we honor the people who have faced cancer first hand, and we remember those who have been lost to this disease.

ATLANTA, March 29, 2008 – Pinnacle Promotions sponsored and participated in this year’s global Earth Hour event in Atlanta.

As part of Pinnacle’s EarthSmart™ initiatives, employees were asked to join in with the people of Atlanta to turn off their lights from 8 p.m. to 9 p.m. on March 29 for Earth Hour. With several employees participating in Earth Hour and many others working to develop other eco-friendly habits, Pinnacle is continually advocating a more EarthSmart™ way of life among employees.

Sponsors and participants of this year’s Earth Hour were invited to attend the Earth Hour Viewing Party at Arnall, Golden & Gregory, LLP in the Wachovia Building at Atlantic Station. At the Viewing Party, Mayor Shirley Franklin and other high-powered members of the Atlanta community joined sponsors and participants to watch as the city darkened for an hour.    

“The Earth Hour Viewing Party was a great way to celebrate the impact the City of Atlanta made by turning off the lights for one hour,” said Heather Peterson, Pinnacle’s Marketing Manager and member of The Green Committee. “Counting down and watching Atlanta's big skyscrapers go dark was inspiring. It is a small step, but delivered a powerful message that we will continue to take action against global warming.”

To further Pinnacle’s EarthSmart™ goals and initiatives, The Green Committee planned and attended several events throughout March and April. In addition to participation in Earth Hour, Pinnacle’s Green Committee arranged and participated in a “Bring-Your-Own Bowl and Spoon” Ice Cream Social on Earth Day, sponsored and participated Earth Share of Georgia’s Corporate Green Day Challenge on April 26 and distributed reusable grocery bags to all Pinnacle employees.

About Earth Hour
On March 31, 2007, for one hour, Sydney made a powerful statement about the greatest contributor to global warming – coal-fired electricity – by turning off its lights. Over 2.2 million Sydney residents and over 2,100 businesses switched off, leading to a 10.2 percent energy reduction across the city. What began as one city taking a stand against global warming caught the attention of the world.

In 2008, 24 global cities participated in Earth Hour at 8 p.m. on March 29. Earth Hour is the highlight of a major campaign to encourage businesses, communities and individuals to take the simple steps needed to cut their emissions on an ongoing basis. It is about simple changes that will collectively make a difference – from businesses turning off their lights when their offices are empty, to households turning off appliances rather than leaving them on standby.

ATLANTA, March 15, 2008 – Pinnacle Promotions’ Philanthropy Committee brought smiles and laughter to the young patients of Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta with a St. Patrick’s Day theme party.

Pinnacle employees designed various activity stations and invited all of the children at the hospital to attend. Volunteers painted t-shirts with puffy paints, painted rocks, made St. Patrick’s Day theme mobiles, colored with crayons and did various arts and crafts with the children.

The party gave terminally ill children and their families the opportunity to get out of their rooms and socialize as they participated in the activities.

“Working with the children, parents and staff at Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta was a fun and rewarding experience,” said Chantelle Green, Director of Program Services for Pinnacle. “At Pinnacle, we pride ourselves on our creativity, so having the opportunity to help the children design t-shirts and paint rocks brought back memories of our childhood. The end result was truly amazing!”
