"It's your name, wear it out!"

By
Home Stager with Peachtree Home Staging LLC, Home Staging in Atlanta, GA

Home Stagers and Realtors, like other small businesses, have a tough time locating reasonably priced promotional items for our business.  Yet it's important to market your name, your business, your message . . . Well . . .

                               

I have a great company to share with you  ASAP Promotional Products.  The Company is owned by Dwayne Hurst and he has a good focus on SMALL BUSINESSES nationally!  He'll do onesy-twosy orders and he's reasonably priced.  I have had him do three things for me now and have a few more items I plan to have him do.

He did this for me

 

And he did my new tri-fold marketing brochures for Realtors to use with their listing packages.  They turned out fantastic.  I designed these; but his wife who works with him is quite talented and she did the finishing touches for me.  They will do the design work for you if need be.  I just got these last week and have already had one job from a Realtor who presented it at his listing appointment! 

      

And they did this . . .

I told Dwayne I needed a bag that I could roll into a home to hold all my gear, you know, camera, tape measure, clip board, water bottle, (the list goes on and on . . .)  He came up with this bag on wheels with tons of pockets and then his wife embroidered my logo on the front.  Cool, huh?

They can do anything, shirts, clip boards, business cards, what ever with your logo (put your logo on your tennis shoes if you want!), and you don't need to buy 10 or 100, you can just do one!  Okay, if you do the tennis shoes, you may want two -- and that's okay, but maybe you just want to put your logo on only one of your shoes.

Dwayne's tag line is, "It's your name, wear it out!"

Dwayne and his wife, Yvette have taken an interest in understanding my home staging business so they have some good working knowledge of what we do, and they also work with Realtors, anyone with a small business. (They work with large company's as well)

If there is an item you want or need to promote yourself you can e-mail Dwayne at asappromotions@comcast.net  Tell them Karen from Peachtree Home Staging sent you!

Hi Terry-- I have used Cafe Press as well; did some custom Christmas presents with them last year.  Dwayne is a much more personal contact.  He really wants to get it right for you.  Thx for bookmarking.

Hi Karen-- It's great to have a source for small business.  I figured after doing three jobs with him I was confident in making the recommendation.

Hey Carole-- I love his slogan as well (hope he got o kick out of me using it to title this post)  I sent him an e-mail and suggested he join AR and blog on the value of self promotion!  Thx, also, for bookmarking.  I am sure Dwayne appreciates that!

Hi Danielle -- it is important.  ASAP Promotions is talented at ideas for doing that!

Great article karen... Like the slogan.

It's actually really easy to create your own marketing campaign for just a few bucks.  May I suggest www.RealEstateSticker.com.  Use them for the home staging also.  Nice work.

Hi Penny-- Dwayne and Yvette are sweethearts; but more importantly, very talentated.  I am fortunate to have found them!  I can wait to have them do some more things for me.  I am trying desperately to wear out my name! :-)

Hi Craig -- thx for the kind words.  What's a stager, if not creative, huh?  And of course, clever!  2 key ingredients!

GREAT slogan, sounds like a good resource...perhaps they'd like to meet some people on StagersLIST?  That would be a good thing, we love to make small businesses successful.  Our faux food lady is amazing and until recently was doing the whole business in her kitchen with her children looking on as she was a stay at home mom and needed the income.
