Help Your Name Stick Around

Cheryl Brungardt — Mon, 10 May 2010 12:51:44 +0000

If you want return on your marketing dollar, find an item that your customer will keep around so that your name is seen time and again. Think of items you use on a daily basis and most likely your customers will do the same. How many times do you make yourself a note? If it’s not on an electronic device, it’s probably on a sticky note somewhere. Great idea to hand out is sticky notes with your name imprinted on each page. Your message is seen time and again. Who knows how many notes your customers will send to their customers using your sticky note. The kids’ teachers, the milkman, the babysitter…wherever they write and leave a note, there is your advertising. If you want to hand out something that is useful and has your logo on the outside, another idea is a sticky pad book. Logo is on the outside cover. Inside are 2 sizes of sticky notes and 5 different colored sticky flags. Very useful, each time the user picks up the book they will see your logo. Make a great impression and help your name stick in someone’s mind.

Gearing Up for Tradeshows

Cheryl Brungardt — Mon, 22 Mar 2010 16:09:28 +0000

Will you be doing a tradeshow or display in the upcoming weeks? What impression you make at your booth can impact the traffic you attract to your booth and ultimately, your business. Is your table well marked with good signage, legible from several feet away? Are your handouts fresh and interesting? Is there a friendly face waiting to greet visitors? Do you have levels in your table or it it simply flat and uninviting. To get people to notice and then stop at your table to inquire about your service or products, they first have to notice your booth. A good runner or tablecloth with your name or logo can catch their eye. Colorful, interesting handouts will give them something to remember you. If you have space and it applies to your business, a laptop running a program showing your product or service can be a great way to showcase your business. Adding headphones so that the person can listen to your information can make for better booth neighbors. This lets visitors hear your information without making the booths around you and their occupants having to hear it as well. To be sure you stand out, have something interesting to hand out. Here’s one good item that will keep your name in their mind.

Thank Em Promotions also has full color tablecovers as well as banners and thousands of hand out ideas. Available in 14 colors, business card luggage tags keep your name available and the recipient will be able to slip their card into the middle and be able to spot their bag on an airport carousel. 87 cents at 250 pieces with no set up.

Businesses need to make an impression. Colorful items with the business logo or name can help make that impression.

Think what gets you to notice a business or organization. It might be a zippy tune in an ad, flash of colors, a meaningful message. You have just a few seconds to make that impression so why not capitalize on the time and go for gusto.

Creating Business Buzz with Your Customers

Cheryl Brungardt — Tue, 26 Jan 2010 19:08:29 +0000

Getting a new client or customer’s attention is one thing, keeping their attention is another. Part of doing a booth at a tradeshow or event is capturing the attendees attention. When they walk by your booth, do they see you standing up, smiling, being open for business or do they see you munching on a sandwich, hunkered down with your face in a book? Standing up increases your energy level right away and refrain from eating in your booth area. You are renting that space for the day or days so don’t squander the time you could be interacting with potential customers. Do you have something interesting to hand out as they stop by to inquire. Business cards are a must but if you have something they will remember, you have won part of the battle. Everyone else is vying for their attention as well. A well thought out item, interesting, bright, useful and affordable for you to hand out in volume, can pay for itself over and over. Basically you want to be in one of 3 places in a person’s life, where they spend the most time…their desk, their car or on their refrigerator…what does that mean? Think real estate, their desk is like land. If you can give something that they think is desktop worthy, a great coaster, a handy, colorful mousepad, a great mug or computer calendar, those will keep your name in front of them all the time they are at their desk. In their car, an auto mug, an air freshener, either hanging or one that goes in air conditioner slots, a CD sleeve that goes on the visor…and their refrigerator, think magnets or magnet frames. Average person spends their time in one of those 3 areas so think what can you give to keep your name out there.

Make the Everyday Item Stand OUT!

Cheryl Brungardt — Wed, 06 Jan 2010 03:35:31 +0000

Recently after meeting with a longtime business acquaintance, he mentioned that he likes to give a small plain tablet and a pen to his clients to thank them. They spend hundreds of dollars a year and his acknowledgement is less than a dollar…that’s budget friendly but there’s a way he could stand out to his customers. Full color tablets cost only pennies more and would be useful. Same with the pens, anyone can give a cheap, blank pen but one with your logo or contact information helps keep your name circulating. Why be in business if you don’t want referrals? Are you doing a tradeshow or attending a networking event and need something to get remembered by the attendees? Each time your recipient writes a note to a co-worker, teacher, milkman or any other person they drop a note to, your information can be in the recipient’s hands. Twenty five sheet tablets are 3-1/2″ w x 8-1/2″ h and can be mailed in a regular business envelope or tucked in a folder or dropped in a tradeshow bag. Can be lined or have graph, full color graphics. You choose what goes on the tablets…and it’s no additional for the full color.

Min is 500 tablets at 45 cents, 1000 tablets 30 cents ea, 2000 28.3 cents ea, 5000 26 cents ea. Tax and shipping additional. Order yours today!

Trade Show Handouts for 2010

Cheryl Brungardt — Wed, 23 Dec 2009 18:30:25 +0000

Time to start thinking about what you will hand out at your trade show booth in 2010. You want something people will keep, use and remember where they got it. Pens are very popular items to hand out. They come in all kinds of price points so there’s a pen for everyone’s budget. A nice pen that someone uses every day can make a great marketing tool at a trade show or networking event. Industry experts say that the average pen has 7 owners. People pick a pen up here, leave it as they sign a receipt or write a note, the next person picks it up and does the same and so on. The person you originally handed it to may not be the eventual one who keeps it so make sure your contact information is on the pen as well as what you do if it’s not obvious from the name. Good pens make great silent marketing partners. Time and again people report they got referrals from someone saying, “I have a pen and here’s the name of a plumber, attorney, etc.” Lastly, why wait until just before the trade show or event, order your items today and you will be set when the event rolls around.

Make an impression with a quality pen at your next trade show booth or event
