New Team Member!
Brandon Eshleman
We're thrilled to officially introduce you to Brandon, our new and talented production technician and engraver, who joined our team late December. After completing his training period with flying colors, Brandon has quickly become an indispensable member of our production crew.
Brandon has a quick eye for detail and a passion for learning and doing a job properly. As he continues to grow with us, Brandon is eagerly expanding his skill set to include setup and design and more front-facing customer service interactions. You may have already seen him behind the counter helping you check out!
We're grateful to have him on board, and we can't wait to see the incredible contributions he'll make. Join us in welcoming him to the Capital Trophy Team!
New Shop Dog!
Kiva
(4 Month Old Husky/Shepherd Mix)
Kiva, owned by Kari & Kevin Wiens, is our adorable new addition to the team! She's currently in training to become our official shop dog. 🐾
While Kiva is generally sweet and friendly towards customers, she's still a puppy and learning the ropes. Sometimes she can be a bit shy or nervous, so we kindly ask that you respect her space. If you'd like to meet her, let her sniff you first before attempting to pet her. She prefers gentle pets under the chin or on the chest rather than over the head.
Please don't take it personally if Kiva seems a bit reserved – she's still figuring things out! You may also hear her bark or "talk," which is typical of her husky breed. We're working on teaching her that barking isn't allowed in the shop, but it's a work in progress. If you have a treat for her, please ask first, as some treats may not be suitable for her.
For those who are uncomfortable around dogs or have allergies, please be reassured that we keep Kiva confined to an office when she's not greeting guests and won't let her out without asking first. Additionally, our shop undergoes thorough weekly cleanings to minimize dog hair and dander.
Spring Into Action
That time of year!
Spring is in full swing, and at Capital Trophy, we're gearing up for our busiest season yet! May and June are jam-packed with graduations, school year-end awards, spring sports tournaments, and government fiscal year-end celebrations.
Order Ahead!
To help you beat the rush, we're encouraging our valued customers to get their orders in early. By placing your order now, you'll secure your spot in our schedule and avoid any last-minute stress. Plus, ordering early means you'll have more time to review and finalize designs, ensuring your awards are perfect for the big day.
It's Easy!
We make ordering easy – simply let us know the quantity and products you're interested in, and we'll take care of the rest. You don't need to provide winner names or verbiage right away; we can finalize those details closer to the due date. Our experienced team will have mockups ready for your approval 3-5 days before your deadline, so you can be confident that everything will be just right.
Don't wait until the last minute – spring into action and place your order today! Let's make this spring season one to remember together. 🌼
