Photoshop/ graphic design help. Make a poster contest!

I recently launched a line of breakfast sandwiches for a local chain called Nadeau's subs. I want to make a poster i can put on the window to promote it, but id rather have someone with some artistic skill do it. Think big loud letters (restaurant is located inside a gas station) that can be seen from 50 yards away (where the pumps are). I have some pictures of some sandwiches i took people can use in their design. I figure ill let the contest go for a couple weeks unless i see one i fall in love with before hand. It needs to make mention that its a Nadeau's product in some way. The Nadeau's brand has a good pull here in southern nh.

Get creative! Win some money! Get some design practice! Ill happily mail some games from my collection in lieu of cash(via paypal). Im excited to see what people come up with!

  • May have to try this later on tonight just for funzies.
  • Will it be at just one location? If so, can we get a photo of the general area it'd be posted?
  • I dunno, what do y'all think? I did this at work. OP said it was in a gas station. lol

    Here ya go!



    EDIT: I just used the google images to create it, but if you have hi res images, I can redo it. I use Adobe Photoshop.
  • Sweet! I think center the images a little bit and raise the Nadeau's logo a bit. for visibility and we have a winner! I'll let you know when the Hi res images come in from NE coffee. I'll work on getting a Hi Res Nadeau's lo
  • Lol nice. I suppose if you have a winner I won't bother.  
  • Hahah just takes the first one he sees.
  • He nailed it, his concept is perfect! I dont want to waste any time! It hits the message off attracting impulse purchase to a T!
  • lol it is going to be tough not to travel to this gas station and stand by the sign excitedly telling all the locals that pass by the legendary origin story of how the sign came to be
  • here ya go



    image
  • NOW it's a contest!
  • A couple weeks he says. I'm making one anyway  
  • Im interested in what buisness you are in that would be launching a breakfast sandwhich in a sub place in a gas station.



    Gas stations with restaurants in them are rare around here, and if they do have national chains like subway. Do you sell your idea to the chain? Or are you in marketing?
  • In order to get proper photographs for my poster, I am going to need about half a dozen samples. Especially the breakfast Philly. Please freeze dry and pack in dry ice.
  • Knew bounce was gonna take this one lol

    Kind of a right place right time thing for me. Nadeau's is a family owned company that's been around for 50 years with 6 locations. 3 in manchester, one in concord, one in exeter, and the original location in Goffstown. Im a local chef that specializes in breakfast. I recently changed jobs, and the owner, Jeremy Nadeau, caught wind of that and offered me the opportunity to start up breakfast in his Hanover St. Store, which happens to be in a gas station. The idea is to have it be like a Sheetz or Wawa, but using top of the line Nadeaus products, like philly, steak tips, etc. They are great sandwiches! Fresh cracked eggs every day. Fresh baked sub rolls from LaMarca bakery in Malden Ma.

    The catch is that this needs to be profitable (obv). The break even at this point is about 42 breakfast sandwiches daily. Im currently only at about 25-30 daily. It started as a grab and go concept, with sandwiches being premade and stored in a food warmer for commuters in a hurry, but i plateaued my growth, so i launched a made to order menu and am working on external marketing for it.

    The owner when he hired me said i am to be my own entity in his company. The only thing he gave me is a price point to work with. The rest is up to me. Considering it is a dream of mine to open my own restaurant, i jumped all over this opportunity. Whether or not breakfast takes off, this is invalueable practice for me!

    haha, you're only in Keene, only a little over an hour away! Though 101 eastbound through Bedford can be a nightmare with the construction.

    After I thought about it I figured you were a chef! Cool that you got to do that, good luck.  Hope you sell 100 a day!

    I'm hoping so too. Thanks for the well wishes! the philly is so easy to sell. When i have one in the warmer, every once in a while a guy will spend a couple minutes looking at it, ask if that's a a steak egg and cheese sub in there. I just tell them yes, and it's delicious. 9/10 times they buy it! haha



    I just got the images from NE coffee in, hope to get it approved, printed and posted in the next week. I'll be sure to take a picture of it hanging on the storefront and post that here, too! Thanks, everyone!
