Jim
Barker specializes in cartoons and
humorous artwork for business and other areas. “I'm a great
believer in the power of humor in getting a message across,”
says Jim. “Whether it's for marketing, promotions or information
presentations, it's well known that people respond to visuals much
better than just words. By also using humour, the points are easier
to make, the message is better understood, and the audience will pay
closer attention to details or points you want to get across. It is
a fact that laughter releases endorphins that make people feel relaxed
and overall happy. Visuals… humour… visual humour…
see the connection?”
There are many reasons to use cartoons in your marketing and communications:
• IMPACT - something
unusual and more attention-getting than just words or photograph
• CARTOONS can
capture “unreal” situations - dif€cult to capture in words
or photographs
• GET YOUR MESSAGE ACROSS
with a smile rather than a bludgeon - making it much more effective
• HUMOUR - makes
potential clients smile, which makes them more receptive to you and
your product/service
• MOST IMPORTANTLY -
A SMILE breaks down barriers, making you - and your
message - more welcoming and friendly
Jims clients range from one man operations to BBC Scotland and his
Facebook page has followers in America, Australia and Vietnam. He
designs presentation cartoons for gifts, cartoons “live”
at events and exhibitions and runs cartoon workshops for trainers
and presenters.
