If you’ve put your business on a diet – or rather, if you have a budget for your business, you’ll be glad to know that using print advertising does not have to be horribly expensive.
In fact, print advertising can be used to your advantage rather easily when you are staying within the confines of a budget. Print advertising means using newsletters, pamphlets, brochures, posters, postcards, calendars, flyers, greeting cards and the like to make a statement about your business.
There are times when making a statement can be advantageous to even a small business. Even though you may have a web site for your business, it isn’t a good idea to always confine your advertisements to the web. People offline may see your printed offerings, and become interested in doing business with you because of them.
In advertising, the name of the game is to bring in customers, both new ones and those who have purchased from you before. Print advertising can have a distinct advantage over web advertising in that it is more portable. You can read a flier or a postcard anywhere. Even though there are laptop computers, you cannot necessarily say that you can use them just anywhere.
If you are somewhere without computer access, then a web advertisement isn’t going to do you much good at all! In an ideal world, a business would advertise on the web as well as offline.
Print ads could mimic web ads, or they could be entirely different for a reason. Taking advantage of colour brochure printing is a good idea in more ways than one. Brochures are cheap to mail, and people do enjoy receiving them, especially if they are well made and eye-catching. They are capable of listing quite a lot of information in a relatively small space, and are not the sort of thing that most people would throw away. Instead, people tend to save them to refer to over and over again.
Using print advertising for your business around the holidays is a really innovative way to get the word out about your business while also presenting your customer with a small gift. Custom calendar printing allows you to customize both the photographs and the information on a lovely 12 month calendar for your customers. They will use this gift for an entire year, and think of your business each time they look at the date!
