Business owners, non-profit directors and office managers can effortlessly spend thousands of dollars on advertising without seeing a substantial Return on Investment (ROI). They place ads, run email marketing campaigns and order promotional products because they know they need to, without necessarily understanding the rationale behind their purchases. Garuda Promo & Branding Solutions’ founders Swire and Shirley Ho make it a point to educate their clients about every marketing dollar they spend, so the ends always justify the means. What’s more, they rely on their 30+ years of combined experience and attention to detail to advise customers about everything from promo product options to suit virtually any budget, to the importance of logo resolution, stock paper choices, image placement and color palette selection.
Born and raised in Hong Kong, Shirley arrived in Los Angeles in 1994 as an exchange student. She graduated from UCLA with a B.S. in Computer Science. She worked in software engineering and IT consulting after graduation, eventually meeting and marrying Swire in 2003, when she joined him at Hellman Production. The company focused on CD/DVD manufacturing, duplication, and distribution services to corporations and government agencies. Later on the company evolved into a promotional product agency. Shirley has crazy-creative ideas for clients, excellent project management skills and is an expert in print production. She pays special attention to different printing techniques and makes sure every logo and design prints the best way possible.
Also born and raised in Hong Kong, Swire migrated to Los Angeles in 1996. He is a proud Chinese American who speaks Cantonese, Mandarin and English. He trained as a sound engineer, working at recording studios and entertainment agencies before starting his own firm, Hellman Production, Inc, 2003 in Los Angeles. Swire and his team successfully produced attractive, personalized DVD and CD cases and custom merchandise like T-shirts, earning a Score award in 2009, for small business success. His business eventually grew so popular, he decided to sell Hellman Production in 2013 to focus exclusively on the promotional product industry. He holds several government certifications: SBE, MBE, WBE, LSBE, and DBE and is well-versed in government contracting. Swire has been guests on numerous podcasts before and he loves to share his own experiences.
Swire is super helpful and responds very fast. I was clueless going in as to what to order given my budget, and he guided me through the process, and kept me within my budget. The product was great and delivered in no time.
Shirley Ho really takes the time to listen to my needs and suggest some great solutions for my Seasons Kitchen branding at an affordable price. She is very efficient and professional in communicating and in ensuring the order is correct.
