Using Text Promotions to Grow Your Business!



Are you embracing "texting" as a medium to help engage customers to your brand retail location or simply to interact with your clients? Over 90% off all text messages are read, so why not embrace this technology to grow your business.

The video shows you how you can use this in its simplist form

Well there are two ways to do this.

1. Inbound text, where you say text the word "pool" to a short code and receive a coupon on your phone for a free pool cleaning or 10% off your next order of cleaning supplies when you bring the coupon into the retail store.

2. The second would be when you send an outbound text to your group stating. The next 100 clients who receive this text message and bring it into our retail locations gets 10% off.

You can send out coupons, specials or other promotions via text.

If you do media advertising you can use different codes on different media. Use text "pool" on all radio spots, text "swim" on newspaper, and text "clean" on billboards, and then you can see which of the media is giving you the greatest ROI.

So in your overall promotion program consider texting and how it can work for you. If you have any more questions, please feel free to give us a call.

As always you can visit our website if you are looking for high quality premiums as another way to deliver your message.

Using a beach ball for Direct mail




Here I demonstrate how a simple everyday promotional product can be used to make an impactful direct mail piece. If you can explain to me how you can for the cost of beach ball printed with your logo on it that you can get at www.proprintersonline.com plus $1.60 postage you can get a great reaction, I would be willing to listen.

If not try it. Is your competition sending beach balls? NO they are sending brochures, how boring is that. It is a snooze fest that is how boring.

Let your personality show up.
