We're featured in the newspaper Informados

Well it looks like the World has started to acquire good taste. They have written a small article about us for the paper “Informados”, from Murcia. A big shout out to all people from Murcia!

A few months ago we were contacted by a reporter from the newspaper, Jose Angel, and they sent us a little survey that we responded very pleased. To tell the truth, these things still excite us as much as they did in the beginning ;]

Cause wearing a Tolky Monkys´ t-shirt is having very much style

Thank’s to Ignacio, a friend of us who not so far ago ordered some nice card cases, we get to know that DT, a magazine for men with very much style, has written about us this this month. What does this means? Very easy, Tolky Monkys is the brand that wears the man either from today or tomorrow ;]

In the article, which is quite small, they talk not only about Tolky Monkys but also about Naranjas Chinas, Lola Camisetas and the omnipresent Threadless, buuuuuuuuuuuut, we’re really proud that they chose one of our t-shirts to illustrate the article. Great! Isn´t it?

And of course, we would like to thank the person from DT magazine who included us in his article.

A little bit of mail marketing to Press

In our effort to get Tolky Monkys known by the whole world and swim in money like Gilito McPato, we have taken profit of the new card cases we designed to achieve some attention from press media.

As we think that sending only e-mails is useless, we decided to send a letter by traditional postal service informing of these new card cases. The letter talked about the different changes that had undertaken in the last 20 years in the public transport of Madrid and we compared it with the transport card and the case that comes with it when you register, that despite these, they haven´t suffered any change [Download letter in Spanish - PDF]. With this letter, we attached some card cases samples and we introduced each of them a card with the Character story simulating the classic transport card from Madrid. Finally, we packed all these stuff in an envelop and we put a sticker at the back to write the recipient. You can have a look below to a few pics we made.

After sending the letters, we had to make the most boring and exciting part at the same time. This previous phrase seems to have no sense, but we aren´t mistaken. When you call all the recipients to know if they had received the letters and found with 1001 excuses, you get bored, but it´s also exciting because sometimes, you find a dude that likes the idea and tells you they´ll write about it. At the moment, we have reached "Buenos dias Madrid", in Telemadrid, a spanish public channel, "Conexion Madrid Hoy", in Onda 6, and Duende Madrid, a great free distribution cultural magazine. Good results, isn´t it? Anyway, we´ll continue hassling cause we deserve much more. Or not... ;]

INSIDE EACH CASE A CARD WITH THE STORY OF THE CHARACER.
