NOW Cards:
Nuggets of
Wisdom
Mr. Panaggio is an avid reader who follows the greatest thinkers of our time. He admires the wisdom of top CEOs, creatives, authors, athletes, and coaches that cross his path. Learning firsthand from these influencers helped solidify Mike’s own philosophy, mentorship capabilities, and strategic expertise as a long-time entrepreneur. Eager to share this wealth of knowledge in business and sports, Mike created Now Playing Cards. “We produce gorgeous decks with specialized content published on each card.”
Nuggets of Wisdom
Our themed playing cards provide a fun way to convey nuggets of wisdom (NOW) for many topics including business guidance, salesmanship, leadership qualities, sports strategies, nonfiction book summaries, and many pop culture categories such as Geography, JWST, Faith, Basketball, Philosophy, Cities, and Endangered Animals. If you mention a topic, it is very likely we’ve created a deck for that!
Custom Card Decks
As this pet project evolved, we attracted the attention of universities, high schools, athletes, charities, Florida attractions, and engaged couples, to name a few . . . each looking for a memorable gift item to give away to their biggest fans, prospects, and clients! Our “Custom” playing card department was born, and at this stage, it comprises nearly 100% of our production.
Marketing Promotions
With an earnest investment of time, information gathering, photography, and input from each client, we will design and print a useful playing card deck that will serve as a conversation starter or thank you gift. The best feature of our custom decks is the volume of information conveyed on these fifty-four playing cards . . . mini billboards that tell your unique story. Marketing at its finest!
Retail Item
DeLand, Florida, one of our city decks, has found a retail home for sale on the shelves of downtown DeLand in the popular Museum of Art DeLand Shop, Dorothy's Gifts, and NEST. It has been a promotional item for other local participants such as the illustrious Athens Theatre. Watch a fun cardistry reel here: https://youtube.com/shorts/L8-hUalvrLs?si=Q8tOQK5OARVOWBPe
Worthy Causes
With our colorful Endangered deck, we are highlighting the need for human intervention to assist a world full of critically endangered species to survive.
Bismack Biyombo Foundation
A cause that is close to Mike's heart, is the Bismack Biyombo Foundation which is working hard to change lives in the DRC. As you can read in the BLOG section, Mike has traveled to Africa several times with Bismack to host basketball camps and promote fundraising efforts to build schools, assist ambitious medical endeavors and provide scholarships to energetic student-athletes.
