From Darkness to Radiance: Child of Light – A Powerful Testament of Hope Amidst a Battle Against Cancer

In a world often overshadowed by the darkness of illness, “Child of Light” emerges as a beacon of faith, resilience, and unwavering hope. This compelling and inspirational book, authored by Teresa Koska, takes readers on a transformative journey through the author’s personal battle against cancer, her unwavering faith in God, and her unending desire to encourage those around her, illuminating a path of radiant hope even in the most challenging circumstances. 

What started with simple words of encouragement to a small group of friends via email, quickly began to turn into more readers as Teresa’s (also known as TK to those close to her) words about her perspective of life through her faith in God prompted her to start a blog for others to follow. The blog, “Words by TK” follows TK’s journey through the toughest of circumstances in her battle with cancer.  Her words give us inspiration and hope as they are not really her words, but God’s words through her.  More than anything, TK wanted God’s message of love to be spread to as many people as she could reach.  Through her book, her words, and God’s words, we continue her mission of faith.

Teresa graduated from UNCW with a BA degree in Fine Arts.  She used her talents in creating Wilmington’s first and finest full scale event design company.  Her unique ideas and artistic touches set Teresa apart by providing her clients with memorable occasions specifically designed for them. She found joy in painting as a release from the everyday demands of a busy lifestyle.  Her paintings are an expression of her love for art and beauty.  With subjects centered around her hometown of Wilmington, NC, Teresa transformed the canvas through her use of depth and layers to draw her audience into the nature which surrounds them. Teresa truly appreciated life and all the wonder of the natural world around her. As an artist, she enjoyed expressing her love of God’s creations by transforming even the simplest tree branch into a thing of beauty. She had a special place in her heart for all children and was known as YaYa to the many dear ones she cared for over the years. Her faithful soul shone through every day through her generosity and giving of herself to others. Teresa passed away on Oct 30, 2015 after a long battle with cancer.

“Child of Light” was released on December 2023, and can be purchased at Barnes & Noble, Amazon, Books A Million, Walmart, Foyles, ThriftBooks, and other major retailers. You can also purchase Teresa’s art at https://fineartamerica.com/art/teresa+koska. For more information about the book, email: contactus@hrminc.net or call 910-765-4422.

The Need For Branding

The business landscape is constantly changing; and, in the flurry of different advertisements and jingles, how are businesses supposed to gain (and maintain) new clients? The answer to that question is, usually, marketing. A strong and well-aimed marketing campaign can be the difference between client acquisition, and a hot lead turning cold. Marketing tells all potential clients why they need your help and expertise over all others.

Say you have your marketing push planned— one-sheets, advertisements, business cards. You have the entire arsenal ready, and are ready to give them out. People receive them well, but there was one problem: after a week, no one remembered much about your services or products, nor did they remember who you were. You sent out advertisement materials of various types, but there was one thing that you forgot to ask about each of them: “Were any of these memorable?”

For each client, they see a plethora of ads everyday from different sources, all aiming to do the same thing you do— gaining them as a client or customer. When your advertisement (or even just your product) catches the eye of a potential client, how will they know who to go to? Easy, customized brand branding should be at the forefront of all your products and marketing materials.

Not sure how to do that on your own? Or maybe you just don’t have the time. This is where we come in. We’ll help you create personalized (and recognizable) branding that fits your mission, vision, and aesthetics.

Utilizing personalized branding will help your customers and clients connect all the products that they see to your company; and, if they like what they see, they will know who to go to. Simple steps, like using consistent brand colors, will help build brand recognition (allowing your audience to better know and recognize your products at from distance). This will allow your brand to cut through the noise of every other businesses. When branding, we must always remember that the point of branding is to create a unique voice for your company, in order to ensure that people can separate your brand from the rest— and remember it.

So, what would go into creating a strong cohesive brand that would be able to get the attention of your next client? Here are three points that you should consider (and that we will do for you when helping you design your brand’s visual touchpoints):

  1. Consistency. A strong brand will a consistent feel across every digital and physical place that their brand exists. If you walk into a Nike store in London, it will be consistent with how the brand represents itself on its social media and website as well.
  2. Color. The color that you choose to represent your brand matters just as much as the message you are trying to convey to your customers and clients. Take your time in better understanding what your brand is and isn’t; then understand what color schemes (palettes) work the best with your message.
  3. Voice. How you talk to your customers and clients will matter in how your brand is perceived. Chick-fil-a got to where it is today, by understanding this.

Branding is a necessary part of the business development and marketing lifecycle— it is essentially the heart and soul of a company/brand. Understanding what your brand is, and how to represent it are key to standing out from the competition and achieving longevity.
