What Would Happen If You Put the Right Banner in the Right Place?

  Not every marketing tactic has to be big or complicated. Sometimes, it just needs to be seen. Here’s a look at how different types of local retailers might use banners this season, and what could happen if they placed the right one in the right place. Imagine This: A Pet Supply Store Near a Dog Park Business slows after the summer rush. The pet shop is tucked just off the main road, and most traffic goes right past the plaza without ever noticing it. The owner puts up a banner near the entrance to the nearby dog park. It reads: "Local Treats, Leashes & Toys – 2 Blocks Away →" It’s printed with a paw-print border and hung between two fence posts where pet parents can’t miss it as they head in or out.

From Thank You to Sale: Using Print to Build Customer Loyalty

  Winning a customer is hard work. Keeping that customer is where real growth happens.

Here’s a reminder of what’s coming up next.” That single piece of mail not only thanks them, it tells them they matter. Loyalty Grows With Consistency One thank-you isn’t enou...

Beyond the Party: 5 Smart Print Projects That Shine This Holiday Season

  The calendar’s full, the deadlines are tight, and everyone’s trying to make a good final impression before the year wraps up. If you didn’t plan your marketing early this year, that doesn’t mean it’s too late to make your brand shine. Even a few small print pieces can help you stay visible, thoughtful, and connected during the busiest time of year. Here are five smart print ideas that work beautifully now and are worth bookmarking for next year’s plan. 1. Printed Thank-You Cards There’s something about a printed thank-you that never goes out of style.  Amidst this season full of mass emails and automated messages, a card with a short, handwritten note feels surprisingly personal. Use them to thank clients, donors, volunteers, or vendors. Keep the message simple: a warm “we appreciate you” and a reminder that you value the relationship. If you’re too busy to handwrite each one, try a hybrid approach: print a short, heartfelt message inside and add a quick signature. It...
