A promotional print calendar is a great way to keep your business name in front of your current and potential customers twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week, three hundred sixty-five days a year. Print calendars are versatile in format and extremely cost-effective, making them an ideal marketing giveaway. But which type of promotional calendar is right for your customers? Knowing what’s available will help you to better choose a format that meets your clients’ needs.
A promotional print calendar can be customized to virtually any print format you can come up with including:
Business card calendars – Add a calendar to the back of your business card. A business card print calendar can be done annually, quarterly, monthly, or as an appointment reminder. For salespeople who make regular calls, using a calendar on the back of their business card allows them to mark important dates that may fall before their next visit, or the date of their next visit. Hair stylists, masseurs, even charity representatives can use an appointment reminder or calendar on the back of their card to remind customers of upcoming appointments or holidays.
Bookmark calendars – A bookmark print calendar is a great idea for libraries, new and used bookstores, gift shops, etc. A bookmark calendar offers ample space on one side to advertise your business, special dates, upcoming sales, etc. Using the other side as a print calendar helps insure that consumers will have a reason to keep using your bookmark all year long.
Magnetic calendars – Magnetic print calendars are a great way to go with your promotional calendar since they have two intrinsically handy uses: a magnet and a calendar. Magnetic advertisements are rarely thrown away since the magnetic quality makes them ultra useful at home and office. Combining a magnet with a quickly referenced calendar is a win-win situation. Consider bookmark or postcard sizes to add a little more to your advertising space.
Wall or desk calendars – In addition to the above print calendar formats, there are also the traditional wall or desk calendars that your online printing company can help you customize to fit your needs. Both provide the space often needed for marking appointments and other important dates. And wall calendars come with the added benefit of images for your customer to personalize their own wall space.
Now is the time to order your promotional calendars with the new year not far away. Waiting too late risks not getting them in before the new year begins, which means that customers will probably already have calendars to use. Order in advance to make sure that your print calendar is one of the first that your customers receive and the one they choose to use.
