streams

BuildASign.com saw an opportunity to seize on the Democratic Party’s
excitement in finally having a presumptive presidential nominee as well
as promote recycling on a grand scale. Sustainability is important to
the dot com, which recycles over half of its internal waste and promotes
energy conservation and green practices with its employees.
At the landing page, users will “vote” for their offer of choice, a free
Obama sign with a Hillary sign return or 50% off an Obama sign for anyone
and those who recycle their Hillary signs, and then choose from five
Obama-themed sign designs.
