When most people think of promotional products they think of the “greatest hits” of years past.  In the old days, pens, t-shirts and coffee mugs were the golden standard. Today, if you can dream it, you can likely print your logo on it. If you’re looking for a way to increase your brand’s awareness without breaking the bank,a well thought out promo product may be the solution you’re looking for. It’s all about the branding  A few years ago we had an interesting conversation with a man who owned a bail bonds business. He was telling us about some of the success he’s had with promo products, and the one that stuck out most was a key chain that looked like a tiny set of handcuffs. His company became famous for that item. As time went on, when they’d go to trade shows and conferences, more and more people would arrive at the table to ask if this was the place to get the handcuffs. It was a simple, innovative product that people talked about and held onto. The fact that the key chain turned into a conversation piece didn’t hurt, either. People hold onto promo products A recent statistic showed that 80 percent of consumers has between 1 and 10 promo products.For some, this means holding onto the oversized t-shirt they picked [...]

Savvy business owners understand how a viral buzz can impact their bottom line. And while some are focused on coming up with the next big thing to post on YouTube or Instagram, others are surprised that a sticker marketing campaign can also do wonders. The best example we can provide you relates to something that happened at one of our client’s kids’ high school.  A few years ago, a new student showed up on campus. On his first day of class, he had a backpack of monkey face stickers in tow. The design was simple enough, and we’ll admit it was pretty cool. He passed the stickers out to all of the people he met, and within days, these stickers were adorning just about everything you could think of. Backpacks, book covers,snowboards- they were everywhere. But the stickers weren’t necessarily about helping to break the glass and meet new people; the logo just so happened to be the logo that his parents had designed for their snowboard shop. Suffice to say, the sticker campaign helped introduce the new business to the community. It’s all about guerrilla marketing If you’re interested in a sticker campaign of your own, you’ll want to be mindful of how you launch it. Giving stacks to your employees and telling them to venture out into the community, slapping stickers [...]

Now that 2018 is squarely behind us, it’s time to focus on the year ahead. Most experts agree that the early months of the years are a perfect time to clean and purge closets. Not only does this help free up space for the clothing you’ll be buying throughout 2019, it helps create a donation pile for your favorite local charity.  If you’re not all that stoked on the idea of rummaging through your closet and drawers to start a keep, toss and donate piles, below are just a few of the reasons you should consider it. Your style has probably changed When was the last time you went through your clothes? If it’s been longer than you can remember, there’s a very good chance that you have a ton of stuff that you no longer wear. The t-shirt you couldn’t live without, 10 years ago, is likely collecting dust. If it’s still in good shape,consider donating it to Goodwill (or taking it down to a Buffalo Exchange), so someone else will have a chance to fall in love with it. It no longer fits If you were a size 2 in college but your college days are long behind you, it’s probably safe to get rid of all the things that no longer fit. It’s one thing to hold onto pants, shirts and [...]
