About LD2 Promotions >>

LD2 started last year at about this same time. SEMA was in the air and we all know what that means! STRESS!!! I received a call from my friend named Mike Zimmerman that works at Pypes Exhaust Systems in PA. He was in desperate need of promotional shirts. With time working against us, I scrambled to get his shirts to him and they were a huge success. From there I knew I was on to something.

Shortly after SEMA, on November 23rd a miracle happened to me. My wife gave birth to a happy, healthy, bright eyed little boy named Loren Dwayne Van Tilburg II. There in front of me was born my inspiration, and with his birth was also born the name of my company LD2!

Graduating from California State University at Fullerton, and receiving my degree in business with an emphasis in marketing, was a great experience in my life. I’m not just your average guy straight out of college though. I have been in the aftermarket parts and car audio industry for some time now. I had my show car at the first Hot Import Nights in Long Beach, CA almost a decade ago. Plus, I have worked in marketing for a hugely successful car audio company.

Needless to say I have met a lot of people. As you may know, this is a small and tight knit industry and you are either known as a “good guy” or “a flake.” I’ve strived hard to make a reputable name for myself and want to continue that name into LD2. LD2 has been incredibly successful because it’s important to me to treat each client the way I would want to be treated. As my dad, or as he is called by my friends in the industry “pops,” said, “The way you have treated people is coming back to you.” I want you as my client to have the best experience possible and we’ll do whatever it takes to make you happy, and to insure that you continue to do business with LD2.

There are many companies that produce promotional products. Doing business with LD2 gives you an advantage. We know the industry, people in the industry and what the consumer’s want on the streets because we are in the street, we attend close to 30 or 40 shows every year across the country. We tell our clients, “If you are going to spend money on promotional items, spend money on something that has life after the show.” There is an added bonus with doing business with us too; I’m always introducing clients to one another for projects that are beneficial for both parties involved.

Our core business has been in screen printed T-shirts and embroidered hats, but we also host a large array of products, some 675,000 actually. Word started spreading that LD2 was the source to get your shirts done in a hurry without sacrificing quality. I have often found myself with 4 days to produce 1000 shirts and then have to ship them to the other side of the country. In fact, my clients are often thanking me for being persistent and staying in communication on jobs that are of most importance.

LD2 wants you to come back time after time. We want to make sure you know what quality you are getting and what price you are getting it for, at no hidden cost. To ensure this, we will send you samples that are at different price points and give you the option of where you want to be. Some clients want the most “bang for their buck,” others are reselling, and some want the very best to give to their best customers. Wherever you want to be is where LD2 will help you be with all your marketing and promotional needs, because with out you there is no LD2. If LD2 doesn’t satisfy your needs someone else will, and we are determined that will not happen once you have done business with us.

Though LD2 started as a T-shirt business, we have now grown to be much more. We still offer any promotional item under the sky and are coming up with new idea’s all the time. Because of customer demand LD2 has diversified to offer many more aspects to the business besides promotional items. LD2 has teamed up with a transportation company that specializes in hauling custom vehicles. They haul for Circuit City and many others show vehicles to shows across the country. LD2 has also become partners with an exhibit company that has been in business for over 13 years, in which they have done business with companies like Toyota, Honda, and Falken Tires. Plus, we now are connected with many different show series that we negotiate for you and because of our relationship we are often times able to get you a lot more than you expected. Our goal is to offer the complete package. We know and understand that these projects can prove to be overwhelming to many because of many different factors. Our goal at LD2 is to make your job/life as easy as possible when it comes to BIG jobs. We have teamed with companies that have a very reputable names in their perspective industry to give you the very best.
