Kelowna Woman’s Shelter Testimonial

When Bruce Falkins asked me for a letter of reference, I felt privileged. Bruce is a man I hold in high regard.

As Finance Manager at the Kelowna Women’s Shelter, I am always searching for affordable, effective ways to inform our community of the impacts of family violence. As well, I want to let people know how our services can empower women to make positive changes. At our first meeting, Bruce readily understood our goals and our challenges. We developed an immediate friendship.

Bruce is hard working and committed. His superior work ethic is evident whether he is researching a product that will assist our campaign or working on a project for which he has volunteered as a Rotarian, - never one to withdraw from a cause because it becomes too challenging or time consuming.

Bruce is very clear about his values and demonstrates them in the decisions he makes. His family is his top priority and his love for them and his pride in their achievements are favourite topics of conversation. He is relentless and resourceful in finding time and energy to honour his commitments to the community. Bruce doesn’t just help others; his hands on approach to mentoring empowers them to learn to help themselves.

Bruce’s optimism is contagious. His belief in the strength and resilience of the individual person and his concerns for our community are closely aligned with the vision of our society.

Bruce has become our enthusiastic advocate, championing our requests for funding and support.

I am happy to be available for further information.

Sincerely,

Mary Chamberlain /Finance Manager

Testimonials

Several years ago, I was approached by Bruce Falkins of Falkins Advertising Specialties supplier of Kelowna promotional products. Although not convinced of the value of “giveaway” products, I agreed to purchase some magnets and key chains, as well as a seemingly endless array of pens. I was pleasantly surprised from the reaction and gratitude that, my customers expressed.

After a couple of years, I decided to try, on my Bruce Falkins suggestion, a lanyard style keychain, with my company name and phone number. My phone number was to be prominent, in that it was easy to remember number. (707-0700)

It was suggested, that I put every customers keys on one of these lanyards. The results were amazing. The bright red lanyard, prominently displaying my phone number, was on every one of my customer’s key sets. Customers asked for a spare, for their kids keys, or the cabin keys, etc. etc.. I was so pleased we ordered a second colour of lanyard. The cost to have my company phone number, in every customer’s car was insignificant.

This program is far cheaper than newspaper advertising, and keeps my phone number , literally on hand, on a permanent basis. It is amazingly cost effective, and has actually reduced my monthly advertising budget.

We have since progressed to a greater variety of items, all prominently displaying 707-0700, included coffee mugs, golf tees and shoe bags, wall clocks, premium quality pens and knives plus many others.

I believe in using promotional products and have found Falkins Advertising to be the “Best of the Okanagan”. I have known and used Bruce Falkins’ services for many years and have ordered pens, shirts, vests, travel mugs and he has even custom stitched my logo onto some of my own products.

Bruce has always been prompt for appointments, fair with his pricing and reliable, always delivering what was promised and ordered. I appreciate and look forward to his new product emails and newsletter that he sends out monthly.
