Promotional Summer Safety Items

Summer Safety

Summer is just around the corner!  It’s time for you to start preparing for that vacation you’ve been thinking about all winter.

Be prepared.  Before you leave on your trip pack extra radiator coolant and water, quarts of oil, safety flares and any tools you might need.

Emergency Gas Can - as low as $10.49

Always store a roll of duct tape in your car.  It has many uses and can be a life saver!

Breaking down in the middle of nowhere, while memorable, it does not make for a fun vacation and can be dangerous.

Keep your content fresh!

Regularly update your content and keep everything informative and interesting.

It is essential for you to acquire new customers and grow your business by being absolutely certain to only send customers relevant, targeted offers that they actually want to receive.

In an industry littered with competition and product variation, now is the time to re-evaluate the ways in which your data is collected and used as well as how you communicate with potential customers.  Recipients no longer tolerate irrelevant marketing materials sent via email or any other medium.

Make sure the URL of your website appears prominently on every piece of paper and all correspondence your business generates.  This is a brilliant approach to free advertising.

Be sure to advertise on items that people find useful.  This makes it more likely that the recipient will keep it or possibly even pass it along to someone else but at least it won’t get thrown away.

Help Your Customers Save Money

» Posted to Promotional Products

Save money and cut down on waste.

44 million people eat lunch out instead of bringing it from home.  If you’re trying to save a little more money this might be an easy way to help make that happen.
By bringing lunch to work just four days a week (treat yourself with one lunch out during the week), you’ll be amazed how much money it’ll help you save.
You may not realize it but the savings can be substantial.
While take-out lunches are convenient and pretty inexpensive they still impact your wallet.

Let’s say that on average, buying lunch out costs about $7 making eating out five days a week total $35.00.

Whereas, if you bring lunch from home consisting of a sandwich, a piece of fruit and a jell-o or yogurt the cost probably averages around just $2.00.  As you can see there is an added benefit of having the ability to make smarter healthier choices about what you eat.  Be sure to always use a reusable bag to help cut down on waste.

Heavy Duty Insulated Bag - as low as $4.95

So, eating lunches from home four days plus one day out averages $15.00 per week and eating out every day averages $35.00 the difference is a savings of $20.00 making a monthly savings of about $80.00.

When you do go out to get something to eat and bring back to the office use reusable utensils and bring a mug or water bottle from home instead of using Styrofoam or plastic cups for coffee and water.

Advertising 101

» Posted to Promotional Products

Most Common Types of Advertising

  1. Consumer.  Advertising of products or services sold to the general public.
  2. Business-to-Business.  When you advertise products or services sold by one business to another. Also known and referred to as trade or industrial advertising.
  3. Direct Response.  Advertising that seeks to get the reader to take an action.  Examples: fill out an order form, call a sales representative or clip and use a coupon.

Differentiate your product's or service's features from its benefits.  Features are valuable and can undoubtedly augment your product, but the benefits are ultimately what motivate people to make a purchase.  Be sure to convey how your product's or service's benefits pertain to least one basic human need.  Success, safety, good health/appearance, financial security and saving time, are some examples of the needs all people have.
