Every Town Needs a Trail
The Perfect Holiday Gift for Everyone on Your List
Written by local author Jen Ohlson, this beautiful coffee table book features inspirational interviews with some of Austin’s most distinguished residents who are among the thousands of people who have enjoyed the Trail on a daily basis, along with beautiful photographs by her father Russ Ohlson and Brenda Lindfors. It is a cultural story, a scenic story, an environmental story and a universal story about the deep need in all of us to maintain our health and cherish our open spaces and our special community. The book has been extremely well received by the Austin business community, so well, in fact, the Austin Chamber gave it their best recommendation (see letter below).
The book is a great marketing tool that has been used not only by The Austin Chamber of Commerce, but Corporations, Realtors, Title Companies, Real Estate Developers, High-tech, etc. to give as closing gifts, relocation gifts, recruiting tool, Thank You, gift, etc. or just an expression of appreciation for using their product or services.
The book can be personalized for an additional $5.00 per book to include a vellum insert including your logo and a message from you or your company which enhances the book as a great marketing tool and will be cherished by your clients and friends for years to come. (see examples attached)
