1. The title of the ad calendar software will be:
Screen Calendar from <enter your registration name or your company>

This title will always be displayed in Setup window, so, when you client wants to adjust any option of the program (for example, he wants calendar to show weeks numbering), he will see program title with your company’s name.

2. There is a feature to embed your production’s images (or any nice pictures associated with your company) as desktop wallpapers. Besides, if you want desktop wallpaper of your client to be changed automatically every month on 1^st , you will be able to choose what picture will have to be on a desktop on 1^st March or 1^st April – just like a loose-leaf calendar. You surely know the pleasant feeling of novelty when, having turned a calendar leaf on 1^st, you seem that new life begins. Make this little surprise for your clients!

3. Calendar program with built in info of your company is a full-functional and handy PIM: double-click on a calendar to open task scheduler, and simply move your mouse cursor to needed date cell to read your note – it will emerge as a hint directly on the calendar.

4. Promo Screen Calendar makes a Setup File for easy installing calendar software with your ad. You will be able to create a setup file with any name (for example, calendar_from_your_name.exe), copy the one to CD or put it to your website and give its URL to your clients so that they can download and install calendar program with your ad, logo and info. You are not restricted in quantity of copies. Expenses for this advertising are minimal, but it is long-lasting and effective: your clients will use the handy and useful program with your logo during the whole year.

5. Promo Screen Calendar is a ready-to-use powerful marketing tool. You should only derive maximal benefit with minimal investments!

It was very interesting for me to read Olga’s last post about how the ideas of new software emerge. It’s especially interesting because I tried all the programs she wrote about. One of them, Screen Calendar, became a part of my desktop, a part my everyday time planning, and a part of my life. It excluded other PIMs I had before. Of course, there is nothing ideal in our world. I remember I was upset when Screen Calendar arranged my desktop icons automatically in such way that I thought I would never return them to the needed places. Nevertheless, having coped with my icons, I continued to use Screen Calendar and at least it became my “right hand”. It schedules my day, changes my wallpapers, and reminds me of my plans and events. Comparing Screen Calendar with the first calendar software (Calendar Wizard), I see great progress made by their developers, because Screen Calendar is a cool PIM rather than calendar. It’s really handy and nice-looking. And some words about Promo Screen Calendar. You’ve already understood that I’m in love with Screen Calendar :). So, if someone presented me such desktop calendar with his company’s logo (that’s what Promo SC provides), I would not only see this logo every time looking at my desktop, I would also think kindly of this person every time using Screen Calendar. It’s an ideal advertising, isn’t it? ;)

Once, by our partner’s request, we've developed easy and useful software to design calendar grids - Calendar Wizard (dehelp.com). It was in 2001. Then we've translated program interface into English, and it was our start in the foreign software market. Idea of the program was very good, its realization was refined, but instead of being showered with well-liked green banknotes, we were showered with e-mails containing requests to create “the same but even better” calendar. Foreign users wanted to have a calendar on a desktop, they needed pictures and embellishments. It seemed queer to us: “Is it possible that people are ready to pay for a calendar if it is on their desktops over wallpapers? After all, they ask. Why shouldn’t we try – we are enthusiastic more than enough and full of desire to understand other’s mentality – so, let’s work!” We’ve released the first version of Screen Calendar software (screencalendar.com) in 2002.

The main point of Screen Calendar Software is an interactive calendar on a desktop. It is full-customizable calendar software with user-friendly interface which can be understood intuitively. Full-functional PIM (scheduler of events, tasks, meetings), a lot of calendar settings (size, transparency, week numbering etc.), automatic change of backgrounds in given time period, record view directly on a desktop (moving mouse cursor to needed date cell) – it’s only brief review of program’s functions. The program is continually improved, but the main idea remains unchanged: real users’ needs are the basis of Screen Calendar software.

Success of the program inspired us to go further. We had a lot of requests to develop calendar software with the option of embedding user’s own images as wallpapers for his client’s desktop – for example, it was necessary for photographers, design studios, realty agencies, traveling agencies. So, they needed a non-typical marketing tool. That’s how the idea of Promo Screen Calendar service emerged. This service was offered not only to English-speaking customers, it also went on sale in the native market, because goods and services in our market need non-standard promotion methods as well as in foreign one.
