Magical Marketing: The Power Of Promo Gifts
Posted in Promotional Products on 30.09.10 by John Meloche
Synergy Marketing Consultants prides itself on providing business owners with absolutely the best promotional items and corporate gifts available. Selecting the appropriate promo item for your business is the first step to help your company expand its reach. However, the ways in which you utilize that promo item are what will truly boost the recognition of your brand.
As John Demalos writes on EzineArticles.com, “promoting the name of your business and spreading the word about it to your prospective clients or customers is not an easy task.” There are a variety of advertising methods that your business can employ to grow your customer base. Some of them can be pretty pricey.
However, as Demalos continues, “promotional items will help you reach out to your clients while having the opportunity to advertise yourself or your business name to them effectively.” Not only do promotional items help get your company name and contact information directly into the hands of more potential clients, but they are relatively inexpensive marketing devices.
He notes the one of the best advantages of using promotional items as marketing tools is the high retention level of the items. Because these gifts are meant to be both kept and used often, they help for your clients to remember you. Demalos lists promotional pens and mugs as two examples of useful items that will have long-lasting effects.
Of course, these items can be used often and kept for a long time. Always having your business name and information readily available to your clients will ensure that your company is the first one thought of when your product or service is needed. The more handy and useful your promotional item is, the more effective it is.
Essentially, your promo gifts work to advertise your business on a daily basis. As Demalos mentions, this form of constant promotion comes with no additional costs after the item is purchased. Strangely, promo gifts are the type of gifts that keep on giving…to you! The fact that they are so cost-effective is an obvious added bonus.
The biggest difference between promo items and other forms of advertising is that they are not easily dispensable. Television commercials appear and then vanish within thirty seconds. Promotional gifts, on the other hand, have that much-needed staying power. Says Demalos: “I can assure you that none of these things will end up in the garbage can as to the reason that they can be of great use to people.”
As a result, the effects of this type of marketing can certainly be “magical”. We will continue to explore this topic in tomorrow’s blog.
