Burris Computer Forms® announces the winner of its company logo contest.

The contest was held through logomyway.com, a site that hosts contests where companies submit their requirements for a new logo, and graphic designers all over the world submit logo design entries. Burris received 152 logo submissions and narrowed the contest to several logo designs before selecting the winner. Ultimately, it selected its new logo designed by Dennis Eliezer Bueno from the Philippines. The contest was easy to set up: the company set an award amount, set guidelines as to what the company was looking for in a logo, and commented on and ranked the submissions as the designers submitted entries. Jerry Guzi, President of Burris Computer Forms made this statement: “Our original logo design served us well for 17-1/2 years. We are grateful to the graphic artists who submitted such excellent work and designs in response to our contest. They did a terrific job. We are especially grateful to Dennis for his design (our new logo) and to logomyway.com for providing this service.”

The logomyway.com site first came to Burris’ attention from CoolSiteoftheDay.com, which lists sites of interest daily. Visit www.pcforms.com to view the logo Burris selected as the contest winner and chose as its new logo.

Wikipedia defines Print on demand (POD), sometimes called publish on demand, as a printing technology and business process in which new copies of a book (or other document) are not printed until an order has been received. “Print on Demand” developed only after digital printing began, because it was not economical to print single copies using traditional printing technology such as letterpress and offset printing.

Burris Computer Forms sells blank, printable forms to help users save money, save time, and gain control.  Print your own forms when you need them!

Read our previous post which highlights the benefits of print on demand.

The United States Postal Service has proposed new rates to take effect on January 2, 2011. First-Class stamps would increase 2 cents to 46 cents and postcard stamps would increase 2 cents to 30 cents. This would be the first increase in two years.  Rates will remain the same in the interim.
