• Celebrations like St. Patrick’s Day Matter

    Few dates on the calendar mean more to the PR and social media experts at Matter Communications than St. Patrick’s Day. That Irish holiday represents an opportunity for deliberate merriment – as opposed to ad hoc happiness that occurs with tremendous regularity! – with colleagues and co-workers. Our agency heritage runs through a community with tremendous Irish roots, and many of our staffers have Irish in our blood (or in our hearts). We celebrated last night and we’re celebrating again today – and, we hope all of you are, too! Happy St. Patrick’s Day!

  • The Battle: White Lights vs. Colored Lights

    Every year when the holiday season comes about, there is one very important decision made at most homes across the nation, white lights or colored lights? Many think that the white lights are classy and sophisticated, a winter wonderland some call it, while others find them boring and lean more towards the colored lights.

    Let’s face it, there is usually that one house every year that you must drive by (if you’re lucky enough maybe it’s your neighbor!) who covers everything in a rather colorful display of holiday décor. Blue lights, orange lights, and the best is when they have the entire set-up programmed to flicker off and on to a local radio station, it’s a show all in itself, don’t forget the popcorn! While it appears to be a miss-matching nightmare, there is a part of all of us that secretly loves it and looks forward to it every season.

    Whether it’s white lights or colored lights they all seem to make the season brighter! What’s your preference?!
