THE IMPORTANCE OF PRINTED BROCHURES

Printed brochures are an ideal way for companies with large product lines to showcase their goods. If you are only presenting your line on your website, you are missing a large sales opportunity. Online brochures are proactive, meaning that potential customers must find you online (hopeful by a search engine). Chances are they will also find your competition. A strong advantage of a printed brochure is the fact that they are passive. You present your brochure to your customer base. They directly receive your full color brochure. You can target your market and they can view your product brochure without turning on a computer and connecting to a URL. Full color printed pages can be viewed more easily than a web page and they create a stronger impact. They can be easily shared with others and that can increase your distribution.


Many brochures are distributed at trade shows. The purpose of trade shows is to increase sales and attract new customers. Many companies with large product lines often introduce their new brochures at major trade shows. Frequent buyers look forward to seeing the new lines and products being offered in a new brochure. For many buyers, there is true anticipation and excitement in receiving a new brochure.


 Although trade shows can be an overwhelmingly busy experience to attendees, one way to give them a lasting memory of you and your company is to present them with the most attractive high quality sales and marketing literature you can. There are a number of online companies that can provide these services. Color Printing Pros is such a online printing company that can fit all your needs.

Selecting the Best Online Color Printing Service

Finding the best online color printer with the cheapest prices can be a challenge. When it comes to your business, only the very best in printed products will suffice. Your business card, catalog or flyer will often be the first glimpse that a prospective customer has of your company, and it has been proven time and time again that first impressions really do count. Therefore choosing the best online printing service to handle your important orders is vital.

A great way to get a feel for the company is to request a free sample of their products. A reputable, professional company will be more than happy to provide free samples of the products you need. It’s always worth ordering samples from a few different companies so that you can compare the quality of the color printing, as well as the general service and speed of delivery.

Online testimonials are a really fantastic way of getting an idea of the service and quality of product you would receive. A good company will usually have a page of testimonials submitted by previous customers for you to peruse. If you feel you would like a more impartial opinion, the internet is full of independent reviewing websites and some light searching should reveal all you need to know. Of course, it’s impossible to please all of the people all of the time, so make sure you read the reviews carefully. If a company has a majority of good reviews, you can be certain you will receive a good service.

When choosing a company to handle your full color printing requirements, it pays to find a company that really knows about their products. A good website will have an in-depth FAQ section to help decipher the jargon and make it easier to order. You should always feel free to contact the company if you have a specific question, or if you just want to talk to a human being about your color printing requirements. You need to use a company who will recognize that its success is entirely dependent on yours, and that take that responsibility seriously.

A good online ordering website will make it easy for you; there will be options ranging from the very basic upload-and-order, to full custom orders with which you can have full creative control over the product you will receive.

The company that fulfills all of these requirements and more is Color Printing Pros. Their combination of user-friendliness, professionalism, quality of work and genuine care for their customers make them the clear choice out of the many online printing services that are available. Be sure to check them out.

PRINT CHEAP FLYERS TO GET HIGH RETURNS


Millions of businesses receive high ROI using cheap flyers. Why? Flyers attract attention. Some of the things businesses do with printed color flyers include advertise new promotions, introduce new products and services, offer specials and discounts, and make announcements.

Flyer printing has been used as a powerful marketing tool since the invention of the printing press. High quality low-tech flyers find and passively convert customers when they weren’t even thinking about your products and services. Flyers activate both tactile and visual senses. They can be held in your hands and be saved so buyers can learn the benefits of your products or services. Flyers explain how the lives of the reader will be better when they buy what your offering.  Online marketing can only be read on a computer.

The big difference between offline and online marketing is printing color flyers are passive so they can sell products and services the buyer didn’t know they needed. Customers can be motivated with the benefits of your offer and your promotion will be kept for future viewing. When you send out a flyer your customers will not see your competitors and comparison offers.

When buyers search online, unless you’re on the first page of your target market you probably won’t be found. One thing is for sure, your competitors will be found.  I’m not saying you don’t need a presence online. What I am saying is, that they both work in different ways and have their own advantages and disadvantages.

Savvy marketing strategists use both print and online services to maximize their customer base to find new business. Printed flyers are cheap, fast and easily targeted to the buys. Online marketing is expensive with slow results and it’s very difficult to get and stay on the first page in every competitive market sector.

Color Printing Pros flyer templates are free and available in many sizes, all the folds are indicated for easy and fast layouts and designs.

GET A HIGH ROI WITH CHEAP BOOKMARKS

Cheap bookmarks are an affordable promotion for small and local businesses that don’t have the resources to do expensive advertising and marketing campaigns. If your business isn’t growing because you don’t a budget or plan for a marketing promotions, you need to find a strategy that’s fast, cheap and effective. When sales are low and new or old customers aren’t buying your products or services, it’s probably because your brand isn’t in their mind so you are losing business that could have been yours. Buyers need to know what your company can do that will make their lives better and they have to remember your brand instead of your competitors.

A low cost solution to the problem is to create a powerful affordable marketing promotion campaign. One idea is to find an online wholesale custom bookmarks printing service. Everyone likes a free gift that can be used to promote your brand with a useful, soft sell bookmark. Full color bookmarks are so cheap you can give them away. They’ll work and be kept for a long lifetime because they’re useful. Bookmarks are very popular and every time anyone opens their favorite book, they see your name and contact information. When they need your product or service, your brand will be in their mind so they don’t have to look far to get your information. If they are searching online, they will find your competitors and your chances of making the sale are greatly diminished. Custom printed bookmarks with your logo, name, address, phone number and an inspirational or useful message will get attention. If you give them away as handouts, your distribution costs are $0.

If you’re creative and have a flair for design, you can design your own bookmarks but be sure to know the file requirements. The other option is to ask your printing service if they have a design department or you could hire a professional graphic designer that specializes in designing for printing. If your printing service can do it, you may what to work with them. The price may be lower and it will work like an insurance policy so you don’t get caught in the middle of a potential problem.

The message on your bookmark is important so here are 4 ideas.

    1.    Put a social message on one side and a marketing message on the other, for example, “Love is Reading with your Child” or “Shop Local” on one side and your promotion, “Pipe Pros Emergency Plumbing Service”, 24/7, Call 123-456 7890 on the other. Make an offer that can’t be refused. Add a code on the card so you can easily track the success of the campaign. What you put on the card is up to you, but make it powerful enough so it will have some value and will be saved.

    2.    Put emergency services and contact information on one side and your message on the other.

    3.    Print your local high school football and or basketball calendar on one side and your promotion on the other.

    4.    For take-outs and local restaurants include a few photos. Give a discount with a code so you can track the sale to the promotion.

The idea of any marketing promotion is to create sales and reinforce your brand. This is where graphic design is important. Your bookmark needs to be visually exiting. Color combinations, fonts, photos and illustrations have to capture the eye and hold attention to be effective.

When you consider the investment and risk compared to the good will and potential ROI, custom printed bookmarks are a very effective marketing strategy.

HOW TO GET STRONG BRANDING FOR LITTLE MONEY

In today's business climate, creating a strong brand is the most effective investment you can make for your business. A recognized brand is the best way to make your business stand out from your competitors. By creating a brand that people trust, not only will you be able to claim attention, you will be able to capture it. If you're are able to hold people's attention, you have a customer base.


This means that instead of needing to get your customers, your customers will come to you. Branding is also a best way to cultivate customer loyalty. When you have loyal customers who recognize the quality of your product or serves, they will actually go out and sell for you by recommending your business to their friends, family and colleagues.

While a brand is more than a logo or a slogan, visual communication is a major component of establishing a strong brand. In general, people are visual creatures. To establish and convey your brand and its message, you need strong visuals that communicate the distinctiveness of your business.


It's probably not in your budget to plan for magazine, radio or tv marketing. Use your printed marketing collateral materials and packaging as an inexpensive opportunity to visually communicate your brand to potential and current customers. With printed advertising, sales and marketing literature, you are able to decide how you want your business to be remembered. While many businesses miss this opportunity by settling for marketing materials that are boring and unoriginal, savvy entrepreneurs can make their marketing materials stand out and grab attention using a strong visual WOW FACTOR effect, like plastic cards, silver metallic ink, colored metallic effects, gold or silver foil on silk laminated paper or spot UV coating.


When someone receives your printed marketing materials, they need to be drawn to reading your message, to accomplish this use your choice of eye candy printing effects to create a powerful attention getting visual. You have less than a second to seize the moment.


If you want to highlight a specific area of text, you can use spot UV coating. This works great to spotlight a special offer or discount or call to action. If you want an elegant look matte/dull finish is a good choice for your cards. This is an excellent choice for any business that is branding itself as a luxury option. You can also combine matte aqueous coating with high gloss spot UV coating for a very impressive presentation.


Because people will hold your printed marketing material as they look at its design and read what it says, their sense of touch also plays a role in how they perceive your brand. To stand out from other businesses use lheavy weight papers. Fourteen or sixteen point card stock is a great choice. by using a heavy papers, you will be perceive as a professional quality leader.


In addition to coatings and stock, when you order your marketing materials from an online printing company that offers these unique options, you will establish your business as different then your competitors. This may sound expensive until you acturally see how affordable it is even if you’re a start-up or small business you can level the playing field.
