As of September 2019, I am not actively engaged with Juice Press. The materials presented here are under my copyright. Juice Press is granted perpetual permission to utilize these materials.
When I established Juice Press in 2010, I encountered a curious customer base with numerous inquiries about our products. Juice, smoothies, and salads were straightforward concepts, but the fascination with juice cleanses was at its height. What set us apart was our ability to explain the benefits with precision and scientific insight, something lacking in other juice businesses.
To bridge the knowledge gap for both our customers and staff, I devised a solution: bite-sized printed materials that could be easily carried away. In an amusing twist of fate, the first Juice Press postcard was born during a break from creating the menu artwork at a Fedex/Kinkos. It all began with a simple intention: to escape the monotony of menu-building.
The inaugural postcard tackled a common question posed by men over 40: "What's good for, well, you know, an erection?" Delicately addressing this sensitive topic was not my preference, so I distilled the science into a postcard, titled "What makes penis happy?" To share this information, I fashioned a stainless steel postcard holder and displayed it proudly at our initial JP location.
The response was delightful! The card garnered chuckles and exclamations of amusement from readers. This marked the commencement of my postcard production endeavor. Looking back, I firmly believe that the postcard collection was the quintessential factor that made early Juice Press truly distinctive. The array of printed materials was a unique facet in the retail landscape, standing unmatched in my experience. However, as time progressed, changes ensued due to investors and new partnerships, leading to the gradual removal of this exceptional collection from the spotlight.
Take a look:
