Sonny Strolls into the “Big Easy” Like He Owns the Place
Last week, Sonny took to the skies on his latest adventure… The destination? The Big Easy for a Big Surprise. If you’re unfamiliar with our main-man, trusty side-kick Sonny, you can quickly learn about him here.
Although Sonny originates from Cocoa Beach, Florida, he doesn’t have much travel experience, other than his brief stay in Turks & Caicos back in January of this year. With that being said, he was a trooper.
Seated comfortably in a white/purple/orange luxury enclosure (also known as a Fedex box), Sonny successfully arrived in Luling, Lousiana, where he was cared for by the extremely friendly and talented team at The Basketry. Upon arrival, our new friends and masters of custom gift baskets, paired Sonny with some vital necessities for his journey to the neighboring city of New Orleans this past Saturday.
Sonny made the solo-trip to New Orleans to celebrate a very special occasion, and as usual, Sonny maintains his reputation of being an unpredictable “stud”.
In closing, Sonny is now back home safely in Windsor, Ontario, after 5 days of being draped in beads. Thankfully, he cannot repeat anything he encountered or witnessed in the Big Easy (after all, he’s a plastic ape), as many of his stories would probably be better left in New Orleans.
Until next time, as our friends at Sun Bum say… “Protect your lazy ass”.

Cool Technology Meets Hot Resorts in Turks & Caicos
At PTM, we kicked off 2012 in great fashion, with a trip to Providenciales, Turks & Caicos, to meet with some of the most prestigious resorts on the island.
Upon arrival, it quickly became apparent that this place was a real-life paradise… With beaches that stretch for miles, and the blue-est of blue waters, an instant concern of distraction was inevitable. Life moves slower in Turks & Caicos, and for good reason… These people live in an atmosphere most of us only see in photos, and on numerous occasions, I was told “Life simply doesn’t get better than this Joel, the scenery never gets old”.
Upon settling in, it was time to get to work… With the paradise backdrop, we were here to introduce new technologies to the island. This ultimate travel destination was the perfect setting to showcase our new suite of measurable marketing tools.
Our new technologies allow us to enhance the marketing experience for our clients, providing them with the ability to make smarter, more relevant and effective marketing decisions.

However, the trip to Turks & Caicos wasn’t all work and no play… On a walk through the shopping district, we came across a store offering Sun Bum sunscreens… this is where our family welcomed a new addition (Sonny), a 9″ vinyl gorilla, who I couldn’t help but purchase… Sonny joined us for the rest of our stay, enjoying adventures and a little relaxation of his own… We began documenting his journey, and continue to do so, even upon returning home to Windsor, Ontario.
Our visit to Turks & Caicos was not only a successful business trip, but also a glimpse into the dream life… To one day hopefully awake each day on an island like this, is the reason we put 120% into everything we do… I couldn’t think of a better reward.
Thank you Turks & Caicos!
