Discover Myrtle Beach / Myrtle Beach VIP Card
Discover Myrtle Beach is an online and print tourism guide to the Myrtle Beach, South Carolina area. The site is seen by over 2 million people each year.
Our project is a membership program to give discounts to tourists and locals coming to the area for vacation.
There are usually about 300 participating vendors who honor the discount card in our area.
Our target audience is ANYONE looking to take a vacation to the Myrtle Beach area and looking to saving money on their hotel, get discounts and nightclubs, restaurants, attractions, golf courses, shops and everything else tourism related.
Locals can take advantage of the membership year round.
Each year we design a new card with a completely new design. We want to incorporate our logo into the design as seen in our 2010 edition. Use of the Logo is a must. Please do not change the color scheme of the logo. The only variation of the logo that will be considered is changing it to a silver-tone white, silver gray and/or black if desired.
We have provided a link to our hi-res logo for designers to incorporate into the card design. Designs of our cards since 2001 are provided with an explanation of details.
We like abstract backgrounds. Images of people are OK but neither is a requirement. Use of our sun/wave design element as part of an abstract background may be used.
NO CLIP ART.
We are looking for a cool, clean, classy and slick looking design that will easily stand out.
We seek a different look each year to make the current version unique. Incorporate our Discover Myrtle Beach
The year 2011 MUST be included.
We do a different color them each year. Blue was used in 2010. We would prefer something different but not mandatory.
