Vladimir Tsai: An Early HOLDERCARD Partner and Custom Campaign Artwork
Updated: 30 minutes ago
An early independent partner relationship
HOLDERCARD's early archive documents ongoing work with Vladimir Tsai in January and February 2020. The founder recalls him as a partner using a business resale model for personalised advertising card projects. Original correspondence includes print preparations, QR artwork reviews and files for personalised branded HOLDERCARD orders.
Custom artwork: from initial options to print approval
According to the HOLDERCARD founder, the collaboration with Vladimir Tsai involved several personalised artwork proposals and an extended approval process before reaching a final print-ready design. The photograph above shows two physical branded cards produced through the partnership. The original artwork below illustrates another stage of custom advertising design preparation.
January 2020: QR layout and first 100-piece print brief
On 27 January 2020, correspondence documents the exchange of QR codes, artwork options and proof images for a card carrying Tsai's name. A separate outgoing production message has the subject 'ЦАЙ 100 шт' and includes a CorelDRAW production file. That establishes a specific 100-piece production brief, not an independently verified delivery confirmation.
February 2020: additional artwork prepared for printing
A production email dated 26 February 2020 contains another 100-piece matte-card artwork file for Vladimir Tsai together with additional client-specific print designs. It illustrates how HOLDERCARD production files and personalised advertising artwork were prepared in shared working batches.
What this shows for the B2B model
The record illustrates how a partner can develop and submit branded physical advertising designs, coordinate revisions and work with practical QR-enabled formats. HOLDERCARD offers corporate advertising space that can be carried and reused because it folds into smartphone support. This is a B2B brand communication proposition rather than a generic retail smartphone accessory.
The case uses original 2020 correspondence and production briefs. It does not invent end clients, lifetime order totals, delivery records or resulting sales and advertising performance. The founder reports that this partnership involved other projects beyond the email fragments reviewed.
