promoting my business
View this Thread in Original format
Kesmai
i'm stuck between a few different promotional products.

1. branded magnet calenders
http://www.wp4promos.com/ProductDet...goryID=3&Page=2

and

2. branded post-it notes
http://www.wp4promos.com/ProductDet...oryID=16&Page=3


there are pros and cons for each. has anyone had any hands on experience promoting a business this way? do either of them convert well? i have some buddies who claim some quality magnets are kept on fridges for years at a time.

A magnet CALENDAR will not last long. Once the year is over, people will toss them, or put them somewhere not really visible. I suggest magnets, but ones that are visually appealing, and will not get old.

EDIT: Post it notes are a crappy idea in my opinion.

As long as your promo items have your website, I think you would be doing a swell job of solidifying a marketing tactic for your brand expansion. Either way whatever the promo product is, you'll be able to reach the eyes with a location for them to find more information.

Also think it's helpful to include a promo item that is relevant to the company and/or branding.

Kinda like having a coffee company but handing out free sodas with your branding on it.


edit-post it notes and "good" pens work well for large distribution...i'd also consider keychains

What is your business field ?



If we don't know that we won't be able to point out the valid or incongruous nature of the choices you made.

i like the idea behind both calenders and post-it notes, but i'm just not sure which ones are more effective. i like the idea of the calenders because i could picture myself putting one of them on my fridge, but then again post-it notes could actually be used.. and on top of that, if you write stuff for someone else on a post-it note, now they just advertised your business FOR you...

but then again post-it notes don't stay around long, but magnets could be around for years and everyone who visits your home will see it.

i'm still stuck

What is your product? What you wanna advertise? If its not that personal to ask..
Akridrot
Yeah, what is your product? There are probably more creative ways to advertise.

Or are these two methods your only option?

I bet these forums will flame him and call him a n00b for asking a common question :p



And Purple keep in mind there are many professionals on this forum; and it's also good to get the opinion from people who are potential consumers of your products .... that is if we knew what the products were :rolleyes: :haha:
