PROMOTION COMMOTION

Mighty Little Spray Bottle

UPDATE:  Because of the headline news about the swine flu, we've received inquiries  and orders for imprinted hand sanitizing gels for promotional gift giving.  WE have these in different sizes, packaging and price points and are excellent, timely and  very popular. This post was initially published in early April.  ThePromoMarketer (<== click on prior posts) has been ahead  of what is trending and sensible as far as ROI promotions are concerned. 

Please continue to stay safe!

Little things still come in small packages - and spray bottles.  Each year, when I attend our industry conventions and trade shows, I always make sure I come home with pocket sprayers from my favorite supplier - and now they've come up with more product in these little sprayers.  Like scented moisturizers, antibacterial gel, sunscreen, stain-remover or even wrinkle releasers and for just around $2.00 each.  How amazingly useful is that!

Doing a lot of meet ups and networking events will have you shaking a lot of hands.  The handy anti-bacterial sprayer is a discreet way of making sure you spread a lot of warmth and friendliness - but no viruses. Yes, YOU stay healthy. 

You don't need to overthink promotional products.  We've done that for you.  Simple and effective gifts can be just as effective and appreciated.  This is a much sought after trade show item when they are available.  You can sometimes say 'no thanks' to a pen you don't want - but folks never say NO to germ killers - and stain removers - and ... all the above.

Surviving this Economic RollerCoaster

I was intently watching Morning Joe on MSNBC one early morninng (330am, Pacific) and the discussion was how to survive these economic times and uncertainties.  One of the guests said there was only one sure way to stay afloat... and handed the two anchors a bottle of anti-bacterial hand sanitizer

No - really!  The discussion went on to say that it's hard to get sick these days - with or without insurance. And with the upcoming FLU season, these will be truly appreciated.  I have on everywhere - in my car, my purse, my jacket, the kitchen, bathroom and by the front door.

One of our preferred suppliers has a special running right now and you can get these items at Next Column Pricing.  Price is much less than you might get at the grocery and most of them are refillable.

Think about it really, if you wash your hands and keep it germ free...you won't get sick. You won't have to pay a deductible, you don't spread germs..you'll keep your money in your pocket.

This is an excellent promotional idea for banks, insurance companies, small business owners, medical practioners.

You might be thinking ECONOMY right now..but part of staying afloat and riding this tide is STAYING HEALTHY. 

Contact us at sales(at)webbmar(dot)com to discuss how these items can be integrated into you marketing campaigns.  It WORKS.  People LOVE these items, much more than pens in tradeshows.

Spread the Love, Not the Germs

Let's face it - we're always in a hurry.  We are running around all day. For some, it's  one meeting after another, barely finding some time to sit at our desks and get work done.  We're meeting people, talking on the phone and then running errands on our way home.

So, how many hands have you shaken today.  And how many times have you washed your hands?  No need to respond.  The answer's like most people.  Not nearly enough. 

So - there's a branding opportunity for you!  You can promote health and wellness and integrate that with your next marketing program and gift HAND SANITIZERS  that are refillable and can be imprinted with your logo.  For me, this is a staple in my purse, backpack, car and tote bag.  So that's four places I'd see your logo. You think I'll remember it?  Chances are - YES.

So go ahead, shake hands.  Spread the love - not the germs!
