Promotional Calendars: For Year-Round Marketing

All businesses dream of becoming a household name. One way you can enjoy brand recognition is by handing out promotional merchandise. These products feature your corporate logo or design and serve as marketing tools. They are not only effective in promoting your business but also quite cost-efficient as they are a lot cheaper than print ad or a commercial. In addition, you enjoy a much more personal connection with consumers.

With the many choices of personalised products, you might get a bit confused. If you are looking for year-round marketing, you might want to check out Promotional Calendars.

Why Customised Calendars

Without a doubt, you will not regret choosing calendars customised with your business logo as one of your promotional items for the following reasons:

• Highly-Visible: the trick to establishing brand recall is to always be visible. These calendars can certainly step up to the challenge considering they will be referred to everyday of the year.
• Functional: most of the promotional items get discarded after some time but not calendars. They will be used for an entire year and you are sure to maximize the marketing potential they offer. Also, there are styles which incorporate functions such as photo frame and mouse pad.
• Large Print Area: unlike items like pens and mugs, calendars have bigger imprint area where you can choose to showcase your business logo, products and services.

Factors to Consider

When ordering promotional calendars, you need to think about the following:

• Size: a bigger calendar is advantageous as you have a lot of printable area to work with. But you need to consider your target market. They might have trouble finding an area in their office to place or put up your calendar. On the other hand, small calendars will mean smaller print.
• Design: there are plenty of styles and designs to choose from including desk calendars, magnetic calendars, photo frame calendars, wall calendars, calendar block, perpetual calendars and even a mouse mat calendar.
• Print process: choose a print process which will ensure the company logo print will stand the test of time. A smart choice would be digital printing for its excellent and long-lasting results.
• Time: It is important to order ahead of time so that your promotional calendars are ready when the new year rolls in. You would not want to hand out calendars in the middle of the year as it will defeat your purpose of year-round advertising.
