It’s Small Business Week!
May 2012, by Melissa | 2 Comments – latest by MARLEN MORENO BMay 20-26 this year is National Small Business Week. Haven’t heard of it, you say? Well, it’s technically not every nation’s week, just the United States… but we’ve had such a good time supporting it last year that we decided it was time to take it global, to all the hundreds of countries that MOO customers live and work in.
Here at MOO, you might have noticed we’re pretty much always celebrating small businesses, showcasing what our customers have designed to promote their small businesses, or bringing you tips from our experts to provide advice across a wide variety of different topics.
What’s MOO doing for Small Business Week?

Celebrity Cards competition
May 2012, by Dan H | 27 Comments – latest by Shirel RevahWe’ve got a bit of a soft spot for Business Cards here at MOO (no surprises there) and love seeing all the different designs that get sent to Big MOO to print – you really are a creative bunch you know!
This got us thinking about the cards we don’t see and what famous characters’ cards might look like. Kicking things off with Zeus, because the King of the Gods seemed like a good place to start, we settled on the following design:
Not bad hey?
Still, it’s not fair for us to have all the fun, so we want to see your designs! Given that designing some cool cards for the Zeus is on par …Continue reading this article…

Turnaround Time: Which option is best for you?
May 2012, by Dan | Add a commentMOO ships orders to countries all over the world, from two continents – North America and Europe. We ship orders to countries as far away as South Korea, areas as remote as the Cook Islands and to offices as close as next door to our UK office.
Wherever you are, it’s very important that you choose the best turnaround options to suit your needs. Rather than babble on about all the options available, we thought we’d group these into three easy rules of thumb:
I have a tight deadline
Whether it is a wedding, a trade show or an important meeting – it is imperative that you choose the fastest possible option, or you run the risk of turning up empty handed (d’oh!).
First of all, if …Continue reading this article…

Paper engineering at MOO HQ
May 2012, by Dan H | 2 Comments – latest by LilyNrmanYou may have noticed from our Facebook galleries that we’ve been playing with paper a lot recently here at MOO HQ. It started with a couple of workshops run by Helen Friel, introducing us to paper engineering, and ended with the perfect brief for our design team to put their newly learnt skills to good use!
The first workshop focused on the technical side of things – folding paper and making pop up cards, while the second workshop turned our attention to the more creative elements of paper engineering – cutting paper and building layered dioramas.
Here’s some of the MOO Crew …Continue reading this article…

32,000 years of sharing and communication
April 2012, by Dan H | Add a commentGiven that we’ve offered Double MOOlah to celebrate referring a friend this month, it’s been all about communication and sharing in MOO HQ. We started by asking what the strangest gifts were that you’ve ever received and then moved on to giving away a pot of MOOlah on Twitter.
Of course, the next logical step was to create an infographic on the subject, and has absolutely nothing to do with the fact we just like making them. So, without further ado, here’s 32,000 years of sharing and communication wrapped up nicely in a single image:
Fancy a Free lunch on MOO for you and a friend?

April has been all about giving here at MOO. We’ve offered Double MOOlah with our Refer a Friend program, given away $1000 for telling us about your business and had some fun discussing strange gifts you’ve received on our Facebook page.
