A big thank you to the Park Ridge Resource Group for featuring Jeff in a Member Spotlight this month! Check out what they had to say:
Member Spotlight: Jeff Maksud, MSM Proforma
For more than 35 years, Jeff Maksud, CEO of MSM Proforma, has been helping organizations turn their brands into something people can see, use, experience, and remember. What started as an entrepreneurial venture in 1988 has evolved into a business focused on helping clients strengthen their brands through promotional marketing and creative branded solutions.
Jeff’s value goes well beyond putting a logo on a product. He works with businesses to understand what they are trying to accomplish and then develops solutions that can increase brand visibility, strengthen customer relationships, engage employees, support events, and keep organizations top of mind.
Through MSM Proforma, Jeff provides access to branded merchandise, corporate apparel, print solutions, and custom company stores. Just as importantly, he brings decades of experience to the conversation, helping clients think strategically about how promotional marketing can support their broader business objectives.
That combination of experience, creativity, and a relationship focused approach is what makes Jeff a valuable resource for businesses looking for more than simply another promotional products vendor.

Fall is right around the corner, and if you want your custom promo products ready to go, now’s the time to lock things in. Between production schedules, shipping windows, and design approvals, the brands that order early are the ones handing out branded gear while everyone else is still waiting on inventory. Whether it’s cozy apparel, drinkware, or event giveaways, let’s get your fall lineup ready before the rush hits!
Your employees are some of your biggest ambassadors, so your branding shouldn’t stop at the office.
Branded merch is a simple way to build team pride, create a sense of connection, and keep your company culture front and center. From apparel and drinkware to bags, tech accessories, and everyday office essentials, the right products can make your brand part of their everyday lives.
And when your employees are out and about wearing or using your branded products, your logo gets a little more visibility too.
Good for your team. Good for morale. Good for your brand.

Your brand is too important for boring giveaways. 😉
From useful everyday essentials to unexpected products people actually want to keep, the right promotional items can keep your brand top of mind long after the first interaction.
Let’s find something worth putting your logo on. Contact MSM Promotions to get started!

That’s not a small edge. That’s most of your audience saying “yes, this actually works on me.”
Here’s why: a promo product isn’t a one-time impression. It sits on a desk. Rides in a bag. Gets used at the gym or the coffee maker every morning. Every one of those moments is a touchpoint with your brand, long after the first interaction is over.
The right item in the right hands does more than say hello. It sticks around, gets used, and keeps your brand top of mind when it’s time to make a decision.

Moral of the story… choose products that will stick around, not get thrown away. Charcuterie boards are a hit year round!

Not all promotional products are created equal.
The key isn’t just handing out more swag. It’s choosing products people actually use, keep, and associate with your brand. A quality promotional product can continue marketing your business long after an online ad has been forgotten.
From premium drinkware and apparel to tech accessories and office favorites, we’ll help you find products your customers and employees will be excited to receive.
Let’s create branded merchandise that leaves a lasting impression!
