- Brief Overview
-
30+ years as a school-based Occupational Therapist. Currently completing doctoral studies in entrepreneurship. Launching a business to address the fine motor difficulties of young students using original products. Products address handwriting, cutting, drawing skills and more. Trained as an artist, but not in graphics. Now specializing in developmental and learning disorders. Looking for someone who can combine professionalism with personality. Because the intended clients are preschool and elementary grade children, the graphics need to be child-friendly. I prefer drawings that are clever, entertaining and unusual, with clean lines that evoke energy and emotion. The pictures requested this time must be black and white so children can color them in. Future contests will request small one-inch square colored icons of simple objects. If I enjoy your style and interpretation of the scenes requested below, there may be more opportunities ahead. We’ll need an assortment of original artwork for activity pages (e.g. mazes, dot-to-dots, half-page coloring sheets, etc.) as we’re looking to establish a brand, a reputation for quality and a signature look.
This project: B/W 2-frame cartoons (one per page). For printing practice pages. Available space is bottom margin of page, preferably 1" X 6". Some can be 2" wide X 3" high. Mix it up. Be creative.

- Target Audience
-
The products produced and sold by my company address handwriting, cutting, and drawing issues and will be used to increase skills so children can successfully participate in their educational programs. My target market therefore is therapists, teachers and parents of young children with these types of fine motor problems.
This is a start-up niche business and my home territory Philadelphia. It is only logical then that we start by focusing on local geography, including surrounding suburbs and states. In short order, we expect to be both nationally and internationally appealing, utilizing our website, as well as national and state conferences to get the word (and picture) out.
I will be aggressively marketing to therapy consulting groups who dominate school contracts, elementary teachers, administrators who make curricular decisions, parents with special needs children, and parents who home school. We are presently working on our campaign vision, customizing our marketing plan according to the audience and setting. We are already signed up for several state conferences and have connections to many school districts. We have mailing lists of therapists and price lists for online journal print ads. At the same time, we plan to explode onto the public scene in parent support groups, trade shows and other commercial venues.
This is just the beginning.
