      <title>Low Cost Yet High Advertising Value Ice Scrapers</title>
      <description>Consider being a potential hero by outfitting drivers with a valued yet very inexpensive promotional ice scrapers. These small and compact auto tools can be kept in a glove box or under a car seat or in the trunk. Drivers sometimes in desperation, will take out a credit card or drivers license from their wallet in order to scrape the windshield and other windows to remove the snow or ice. This impractical exercise usually results in a broken credit card or ruins the magnetic strip on the back of the card. Hand held ice scrapers usually are made of plastic and have fluted ridges that assist in digging into the snow or ice and "lifting" it off the windshield or other windows. metal would usually scratch the glass, this is why plastic material is used. Many times a thank you would come from the users when needed knowing that they are equipt with the necessary tool.People acquire items for 2 main reasons, a need or a desire. You need an ice scraper when you have to remove the snow or ice from the windshield in order to see. This type of advertising, which is to offer people a useful item that they may eventually need as opposed to a desired item that they may eventualy like to have, has huge value.Some companies will offer promotional items that eventually create a set of tools such as promotion tire pressure gauges, promotional car booster cables and custom printed auto safety kits. These valuable and needed items are kept for years which allows the logo message to be seen and eventually talked about for a long time. Pouring water on the windshield may just create a new sheet of ice and make it more difficult to remove. Placing hot water on the windshield may actually crack the windshield because of the temperature difference between the outside temperature and the temperature of the hot water. Sometimes all that is needed is a snow brush, so as a company that is looking to advertise, consider these cheap yet long lasting a valuable promotional ices scrapers and snow brushes.</description>

      <description>Too many times companies look for the cheapest way to advertise. They don't tie in their corporate message with the advertising medium they choose. Sometimes a print ad or radio ad is used. This creates a very short term call-to-action. Once the paper or magazine has expired or the radio ad ends, the message is generally forgotten.

      <title>Achieve Low Cost Advertising with Promotional Car Sun Shades</title>
      <description>Custom auto sun shades placed in cars are mainly used for 2 reasons. The first reason that a person would use these car sunshades is to help reduce the heat in the vehicle. The second reason to use auto sun shades is to prevent people from seeing into the car or vehicle. This is especially useful when shopping and when itmes purchased are left in the car. The old saying out-of-sight, out-of-mind comes into play here.Businesses like to offer car sunshades that are custom printed with their logo or message. Just think of the advertising value created from handing out a useful promotional car sun shade with a company's logo message in exchange for the receiver to use and promote the message by placing the custom auto sun shade on the windshield of their car. The types of companies that use car sun shades in their marketing and advertising planning are: car dealers, insurance companies, auto parts stores, companies whose parking areas are in high sunlight areas. Non-profit groups and associations who look for unique fund-raising methods, also look to promote their association or event by selling custom printed promotional sunshades. A unique way to help offset the cost of the imprinting cost and purchase of the sunshades is to look for a sponsor. The sponosr's logo can be added to the imprint onto the car sunshades in exchange for advertising dollars spent. This will reduce the cost to the fundraiser group thus increasing the expenses and increasing profits. These car sunshades will actually reduce the overall heat in the vehicle by a few degrees as well as reduce the heat of the seats and steering. Another reason to consider custom printed auto sunshades is that they have a long advertising life and thay are considered a valuable item by car owners.</description>

      <title>The Long Term Value of Custom Printed Key Rings </title>
      <description>fter developing an advertising budget and strategically choosing specific marketing events, you are now ready to look at promotional items of high perceived value and that are long lasting.The companies that have the most obvious advertising benefit when using promotional keychains and custom printed key rings are realtors, closing attorneys and mortgage lenders when a new home is purchased. The logo printed keyrings are a small token of the comapies appreciation for the business and will probably be remembered for years to come because the key chains are generally kept to organize and seperate keys to identify them easier.Key rings are easier to use when a longer lead is on the or when the ring itself that the key attaches to is longer thus making it easier for the keys to be shifted around for ease of use when placing them in to a keyhole.There are many types of promotional keychains. Some examples are round metal rings that allow the keys to slide on from one open end of the circular wrapped metal. Some have a hinged gate that allow easier acces to the keys. Still other keycahins have a ball bearing release that allows the keys to be seperated into 2 different holders.Other businesses that benefite directly from these promotional items are automobile dealers of new and used cars. There are also electronic keychains that will allow remote acces to an area but may still have a ring for attacheing other keys and/or identification and access cards.Advertising companies have used keychains for promoting new movies or products.Many different businesses sell these key holders from retail stores, car dealers, aotomotive supply shops, novelty and souvenir shops.They can also be purchased in bulk and be custom printed with a company message or logo or contact information. They range in price from a few cents to a few dollars each. The purchase minimums vary from a few dozen to a minimum of as much as 500 depending on their cost.Promotional leather key rings generally have a lower minimum quantity to have to purchase.Some useful types include promotional bottle keyring openers. These are used by airline stewardesses and bar tenders when opening soda and flip top cans. Others have flashlights attached to them or compasses or thermometers.They also help to create organization of keys and what locks they open and who belongs to each set.http://www.thepromoshop.com/store/key-rings/</description>

      <title>Effective Messaging Includes These 4-C's</title>
      <description>How many times does a message come across disjointed only to be followed up with yet another message to complete the communication. What is(are) the main point(s) of the message? First make a cohesive collection all your thoughts into a flowing set of sentences. This means that you need to think about your thoughts and collect them in an order before sending them. Place the sentences into bite size phrases for the readers to digest. Run-on sentences are to long and hard to understand and generally try to tie to many thoughts into one message.This brings us to the second point of how well the reader can comprehend the message. Is the reader able to easily understand what you are trying to say. Are the thoughts too vague or talk too much about thoughts not related to the message. Many times there are messages written that talk about events or situations surrounding the isse but don't really have strong significance to the main point.The third point of message effectiveness is how well you connect to the reader. Has your message created a reason for the reader to continue absorbing the message. What is the connection that you are creating for the reader to want to continue on reading. What value does the message have? Is the message of important news, humorous, does it induce an emotion. Is their any relation the reader would have to your message?Probably most importantly, is the message of credible value. Have you been honest and truthful. Does the information encourage the reader to possibly even pass the message on to others thus giving it an endorsement. Have another person read your own message and have them give you their thought on what they understood it to mean.A suggestion is to write down your thoughts on promotional notebooks and organize them first. Writing seems to be an ancient form of communicating these days given all the cell phones and text messaging. It is comforting to actually receive a hand written letter at times acknowledging an accomplishment or thanking someone for their service or effort or concern.Just the receiving of a hand-written letter can get a message across far more efeectively than a text message.</description>

      <title>3 Top Eco Friendly Promotional Items</title>
      <description>Eco friendly items include such items as windup flashlights. These eco friendly promotional products do not use batteries that contain mercury and are made from recycled plastic. In addition they have a longer life than battery operated flashlights. When you need the promotional flashlight most, you do not have to worry about the light not working because it has a wind up feature and can be recharged in seconds. Environmentally friendly products are becoming the promotional items of choice. There is a major emphasis to protect the earth, the environment and eco systems. Many corporations have looked for environmentally friendly promotional products to include shirts made from bamboo and recycled palstic, BPA free recycled plastic water bottles, pens made from recycled plastic and soy ink as well as organic cotton t-shirts. many of these items at this time may actually cost a little more, however, this is a small price to pay to protect the environment.There are many product selections regarding eco friendly clothing. A company does not have to choose from a limited selection of recycled and organic material that apparel is made from.There are some very fashion forward shirts available today made from the environmentally friendly items.Going green begins with a company commitment to promote their message through products that are and represent environmental stewardship. This stewardship is expected to grow as more companies look for promotioanl items that leave little or no footprint on the environment.Reducing the amount of waste should be a natural reaction to waste management. Companies should look to team up with other companies that can recycle. These recycling events and promote themselves by having special days times and locations to drop off old electronic equipment, televisions, computer equipment, appliances, carpet, paper and even wire hangers.Put together an earth-friendly promotional plan to promote recycling as this should gain much notoriety resulting in greater promotional advertising for the company, its products and services.</description>

      <title>3 Simple Solutions to Increase Employee Performance</title>
      <description>Want positive memorable performance from your employee staff? These 3 key recognition  offerings can greatly assist in motivating and incentivizing employees.The first is the wellness program offering. Include a gym membership in order to encourage healthy behavior and encourage healthy lifestyles and work habits thus helping to increase happier and more motivated employees and reduce health care costs. Encourage team participation contests by departments like bowling groups or tennis teams or softball teams. The winning team could be offered gym memberships. The 2nd offering should implement changes from suggestions by employees. This "listening" approach lets the employees know that they are an important factor in the company's overall business health. Employees are looking to make the common sense approach to streamlining procedures as well as easing work loads and redundancy. Great leaders listen to their employees and value their input. This includes respect like talking to employees on a social level where you show a genuine concern for their welfare. This encourages positive relationships. The 3rd and probably most painful of the 3 forms of recognition is the management evaluation form. Let the employees evaluate the management team through an anonymous evaluation form. This form offers employees the power to anonymously evaluate management without recourse with the hope that it will be taken seriously and have positive actions result from the exercise. The entire management team must be on board to implement this program.Keep recognition and awards programs simple and easy to understand. Recognizing the day-to-day constant performers should be a given. These work horses are the structure that keep companies and systems working on a constant basis.And of course, the simple but noticeable recognition awards such as promotional acrylic awards, plaques and useful desk awards such as paperweight awards and trophies should be used to identify and milestone certain performance. Many employees have quit their jobs because they felt unappreciated. people are not machines, they have feelings and look to be appreciated and recognized.</description>

      <description>The Most Productive and Cheapest Salesperson You Can Hire
Advertising is a 24/7/365 operation. So how can your sales team be productive on a never-ending basis?
There is a new type of employee, actually, a set of tools, if used, will promote products and/or services on a never-ending basis, that I call silent-sales persons. Walk into an office or restaurant or store and look at tall the company embroidered shirts, jackets and hats people wear. Go into a sporting goods store and look at the team apparel for sale. All this apparel actually creates silent sales-people promoting and event, product or service. No words were exchanged but the message gets across.
Think of how many people see the message each day. We provided embroidered sweatshirts to a sports club and as I watched one of the World Series games, the camera focused on a lady in the crowd wearing tone of those custom embroidered sweatshirts. How much would you pay for national exposure like that?
Embroidered company shirts and logo promotional items provide the same quiet exposure. There are no overtime, sick-time or benefits to pay with custom advertising products or any of these embroidered jackets and hats.
Too many times I hear people tell me they can’t afford to advertise or worse yet, they stash their promotional marketing items in a closet where they do no good by taking us space.
The idea behind advertising is to let people know about your products and services so that your company is top-of-mind when they have a specific need.
