Here is a great advertising idea for advertising. My sister told me about this website where they custom write things and M&M's. You choose the color, then the packaging, this is great publicity with the realtors. What I did is I ordered Green M&M's that say STAGE IT , and red M&M's that say SELL IT, I choose the cellophane clear baggie with ribbon (you choose the color) . It was fun to order,  Ill just add the business card and a candy cane  and now Ill have a little something else besides a holiday card to the agents that gave me business....and a few others too!

Fernando - actually, I've not done it for staging, but I have ordered them for my home decor business.  I've also ordered them with SHMILY on them :o)

Fernando - this is a really terrific idea.  I'm going to check into that.  I like that you can pick the colours you want too!

Fernando ~ I have ordered them as well, although as part of a shower favor for my sister's baby shower.  They were a hit - personalized with "Baby *****" (I had their last name which also started with a "B").  I had been thinking about doing them for my business too.  Thanks for the reminder!

Jackie ~ SHMILY ; ) You are funny.  I remember your blog on that!

This becomes quite costly very quickly, We did this with the jelly beans, and with the donuts with our portfolio and business cards glued to them, and door hanger trifold flyers.

Just remember what others told me when I posted something similar to this is, it takes I believe they said 7 times for you to do this at the same house/Real Estate office before you may see any results. and they were right!

Good Luck, dont give up! Just keep this in mind.

Fernando, I have to bookmark this, I love the idea!  Mine can say "Feng Shui It."  How cute is that?

OMG, Carole that is too cute!

I would have a really hard time giving the m&m's away...are they really m&m's though? They look like SMARTIES. M&M's are not quite so flat? If that is the case...they would be really hard to give away. Smarties have a better quality of chocolate...rats, now I have to go rummage through the kids Hallowe'en baskets!

AR Tip Fernando...commenting on your own post won't get you any points. You do get points for having us comment on your post though! :)

Jackie, if they have a SHMILY on them then please tell us where you hide them? :-) 

Fernando, great idea.  I did something similar.  Packets of high-end chocolates in baskets.  Didn't get me one referral.  I'm no longer wasting my time and money "bribing" real estate agents.

Terry- I had them sent in gift wrapped boxes to his office (you can order them that way).  

Wise guy! :o)
