It’s great to be excited about blasting a new business into the stratosphere with the hopes of financial success pouring over you in a short period of time, but just remember to sit back and think how YOU WOULD REACT to the ad you are about to implement.

Think about it......

The point of this blog is to get people to THINK ABOUT their marketing.

Yes, I've read the books that you absolutley must have a USP (Unique Selling Proposition)  or a Sentence or whatever it has been called, or will be called in the future.

Let's step back for a minute and think which USP or Sentence has affected us the most.  Unforutnately I can't think of one.

I can't think of my dentist's USP
I can't think of my plumber's USP
I can't think of my chirporactor's USP
And of the almost 200 clients I have I can't think of any of their USP's
Heck I can't even think of my own USP or Sentence.

For some reason, I don't think this USP thing is as significant as the big dawgs suggest in their books and tapes that it should be.

I mean, what is Zig's USP?  He doesn't have one.

His brand is ZIG.  There's no confusion as to who I'm referring to. ZIG is ZIG is ZIG.  No USP though.

Think about it.

It appears as though the business world is catching on to the marketing power of The Javelin Pen. 

Every day people call me and tell me they were searching online for javelin pens because they just received some from another business, or at a trade show they recently attended, and now to want order some for their marketing efforts.

I've been selling cusom printed promotional items for almost 10 years and nothing that I have seen has ever created this much excitement as the javelin pen has.  It's exciting, very powerful for your marketing and very, very cost effective (not supposed to say cheap ).

Use the javelin pen to promote your business and make an immediate impact in your marketing efforts and create a BUZZ about your brand.

I’m guilty of it as well as most other’s are.  What’s that I’m sometimes guilty of in my marketing?  Not considering offline-marketing techniques, primarily custom imprinted promotional items that people use every day.  Day in and day out.

When you have an online business it’s very simple to focus all of your energies on Internet marketing techniques to attract more visitors in hopes of making more sales.  And, you should consider every Internet marketing angle possible.

But, don’t do what I’ve been sometimes guilty of not doing in promoting my online business – forget about using offline techniques to reach out to those who don’t know frequent the world wide web more than while they’re at work.

You see, using custom imprinted promotional items to market and promote your online business may be one of the wisest things you’ve ever done.  While others are beating their heads against the computer screen trying to get a grip on the newest SEO techniques you can firmly have your domain name planted in someone’s hand via a custom imprinted pen.

I mention a pen because everybody and their brother uses one in some aspect at work, however not everyone drinks coffee (referring to a custom imprinted coffee mug).   The bottom line is this.  Put your website at their fingertips and it’ll possibly stay their until the ink runs out of the pen. 

It’s also marketing that’s not obnoxious and blatant.  Because custom imprinted promotional items are actually useful, most people don’t consider it to be advertising and aren’t as turned off by it as they may be banner ads or pop-ups which are used on the Internet.

Do yourself a favor and don’t forget to use promotional items in the offline world to promote everything in your online world, because the majority of online businesses don’t utilize this technique and it may just give you the increase in traffic and sales you’ve been trying to squeeze from any technique possible!!

Think about it.....…all of your online business comes from people who are offline ordering

For the longest time I was known as the only guy in the custom imprinted promotional products world who couldn’t sell custom imprinted calendars. Sit tight. I know what you’re thinking – another calendar sales pitch. Not really, but you gotta at least think about this the next time you ponder doing some marketing, especially if you are contemplating using calendars.

I remember meeting with one of my clients at her office a while back and she was informing me that every year a particular business sent her a desk calendar. What amazed me wasn’t the fact that this business sent her a calendar every year – that’s nothing new, but the prime location she allowed it to have made an impression with me.

She put that custom imprinted calendar in the EXACT same place on her desk (upper left corner) every single year. Every single year when the new desk calendar would arrive in the mail she would remove it from the envelope and replace the now almost expired calendar. If I remember correctly I think she had been receiving these calendars for 8 or 9 years, and that was a few years ago to boot.

Think about it. That business owned 25 square inches on her desk – FREE. Well, he did have to pay for the cost of custom imprinted calendars and shipping, but he had prime real estate on her desk where his business name and contact information could be seen and accessed easily. But the space on her desk BELONGED TO HIM and no one else – FREE.

Ever since I heard and witnessed that story I’ve been using custom imprinted calendars to promote my products and services.  www.kbbestbuys.com/detail.php?ID=B955

Think about it. If you can get the same 25 inches on someone else’s desk – it’ll be yours for a very, very long time!
