About Popshift

Hello there. Popshift is my personal portfolio showcasing a number projects that I've completed. I'm Martin and things are mighty fine here in beautiful Charlotte.

I've operated in the creative design space for over 10 years, amassed some pretty in-depth experience and made some great friends along the way. All the work you see below was designed and developed solely by me. No outside help. No pre-purchased templates. All custom. Yep, layout, design, coding, testing and implementation. I let the work speak for itself. Even if I didn't make a dime from this, I still would do it as a hobby.

All of what I do can be characterized by the following:

• Perception consulting
• Idea and concept generation
• Event naming and concepts
• Sponsorship & media kit design
• Logo development
• Event micro-websites
• Landing pages
• Intelligence gathering
• Traffic measurement & analytics
• Email marketing design & distribution
• Social networking strategy

• Content management systems
• Ad design (for magazines, newspapers, booklets)
• Database and user management
• Business stationery
• Flyers, posters, banners, postcards & rip cards
• Printing fulfillment
• Promotional items (t-shirts, credentials, etc.)
• Ticketing and e-commerce
• Backdrops (step and repeats)
• Flash e-flyers (audio, motion graphics)
• Copywriting

If you want to discuss your project particulars or get a price quote, call or email me. My info is below.
