Visual Communication & Presentation
That’s what we do. And we can do it for you.
Our passion is promoting arts & entertainment, history & heritage. Following Covid, which forever changed our socio-economic base here and everywhere, we closed our offices and scaled back to working with people and projects we enjoy. Most of our clients are long-term, although we do take on a few new projects when they appeal. All work, other than that of publisher, Kathryn Burke, is done remotely, and since our client base knows no boundaries, this severs us all.
We believe in creativity, and our passion is building success from creative endeavors.
Community Outreach
Community Outreach. It’s important to be a part of your community—be it local or web-based, in-person or remote. We can help you devise and implement programs where you share ideas and services and become involved in community activities and causes.
Internet Marketing
Web visibility that works. It’s all about connection, and connection doesn’t happen automatically just because you put up a website. Visual communication is what we do best, and we do it really well on the Internet. Of the various services listed below, we now only handle the larger clients, and we refer new and smaller businesses to an established and trusted colleague.
Web sites – the world is on the web now, and if you aren’t there yet, you should be. Or worse…if you have one of those do-it-yourself sites that makes you look like everyone else…you need us to help you look and be your best. San Juan Publishing builds awesome, affordable, custom web sites, and we were doing it even before they started teaching it in your kid’s school. And we do it a lot better than what they’re teaching those same kids today. Experience counts!
Social Networks – Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Google, UTube, Vimeo, Instagram, Pinterest, SnapChat, TicToc…whatever else they dream up next. We help you select the right digital vehicles, then build it and post it specialized for your specific needs. Social Media is another way to be seen and heard. Let us help you navigate through the tangled web of the web. Working with you, we can help you select the best social networking venues, post your pages, help you keep your posts fresh and current.
Online advertising – the web reaches more people in less time for less cost at any given moment than any other media. If you want an accurate presentation of who you are, what you do, what products and services you offer, then your message needs to be professionally presented. We do that.
Video and Podcasts – Editorial, Advertorial, Advertising. 3-sec and 3-min spots that go on our website or yours and upload to your and/or our Social Media, including YouTube. Longer online interviews, audio with slideshows or full-onscreen interviews (edited to you look and sound your best). Serial Podcasts. If you can dream it up, we can produce it!
Print Publications – Print isn’t dead, it’s just changed to more specific, targeted presentations. We’ve been doing print since paste-up and we’re really good at it, although now, we mostly refer print requests to another publisher, one we trust.
Print advertising – magazines and newspapers. We have stopped publishing our own, but we still design work for our clients to place in other publications. Chances are, after so many years of publishing, we probably already have you in our files, if you live in western Colorado or the Four Corners and have been in business for two or more years. Contact us if you need us to pull an archived ad for you.
Marketing Materials – Branding and packaging. Business cards, flyers, brochures, rack cards. The printed material you hand out to others says a lot about you. You might be thinking “Home-made” saves money, but it really doesn’t in the long run. And it is sure to give the wrong message. If you want a professional image, let us help you get the right message to the right people…or find the right people to help you.
Specialty publications – Magazines and catalogs, mainstream, location- or subject-specific, non-profit organizations—whatever your need, you need it to look as professional as possible. We can still help with that…on a limited basis. San Juan Publishing is a reliable publishing company that’s been in business more than 25 years and has a dedicated following.
Book Publishing
We’ve scaled back on this, too. But, we do know print and understand the market and can help you find a reliable publisher…and avoid those expensive ‘self-publishing’ sites that wind up pricing your book out of the market. We have the expertise to produce, package, print, and promote your book–or point you to the right company to do it for you.
Basic Services
The basics – Print or web. Visual presentation that tells your story.
Graphic Design – It all starts with good graphic design. A cohesive cross-media presentation that incorporates your branding and tells your unique message. Graphic design is our strong suit and we stll do it for our long-term clients.
Copy-writing – Editorial – Sometimes you need the right words, and this is another area where we shine. We’ve produced hundreds of well-written, published articles, web posts, and broadcast copy, all right on target, perfectly conveying the essence of its subject. Nothing stops a viewer faster than miss-spelled words or awkward phrasing. We right tight and we use editors to catch our mistakes – and yours.
Photography – Pictures tell the story, and in a visual medium, tell it much better than mere words.We’ve been taking great pictures and using them in our publications (print and web) for more than 25 years. Photography is a passion for all of us, and we enjoy teaching it as well producing awesome images.
