Useful Products for Effective Advertising
September 16, 2009
The ad specialties business was recently featured on the MSNBC show “Your Business” with host J.J. Ramburg. Rich Fairfield of ASI discussed how “trade shows are a great way to get the word out about your business, and premium giveaways that ‘go beyond the pen’ are a sure bet for maximum marketing exposure.”
A couple of the items featured were our H143 Hand Sanitizer and our N109 and N110 Non-Woven Tote Bag.
Hand sanitizers are so important these days, for everyone, all ages! Ours are natural sanitizers (no alcohol … so safe for children), and USA made. This item would be great for medical professionals, schools and universities, PTA groups, child care services, senior groups and services, travel groups … everyone! On sale through the end of the year!
The N110 Poly Pro Gusseted Tote is also on sale through the end of the year. When we gave them out at our Business Expo in bright blue and bright green, everyone came looking for us, including the anchor for our local TV station, who interviewed us for that evening’s 10 o’clock news! They are available in ten colors!
The host of the “Your Business” Show repeated a couple of times that she liked the items which were “useful.” We think our slogan (for over 50 years) tells the story: Useful Products for Effective Advertising!

Another refreshing idea
August 11, 2009
Here is a new cool case history!
Our customer, a local Chiropractor, hosted a Patient Appreciation Day this summer. Patients were invited to come in for a free evaluation/adjustment in exchange for a non-perishable food donation to our local food bank. Hot dogs were served and everyone received a custom-imprinted water bottle (our D177 Poly Pure Bottle on sale through the end of September!). And finally, a local business who supplies drinking water to offices and commercial establishments, filled close to 500 water bottles for free!
So who benefited? The Chiropractor, the patients, the local food bank, the water company, (and of course, we did)!
We heard a good time was had by all!

Happy Summer!
June 23, 2009
From time to time, in this spot, we will feature “case studies" and here, indeed, is a cool one!
A customer of ours forwarded a picture to us of two women in front of the Leaning Tower of Pisa with our F166 Boomerang, with the following feedback:
"I just wanted to forward this picture to you of the red boomerangs I ordered from you last year. We gave them out at an event called NiXpo. It is held by the city of Nixa’s Chamber of Commerce. Their logo is the big X. The Pesident of the Chamber asked that the members and people of the community send in pictures of where they traveled with their X boomerangs. This one made it all the way to the Leaning Tower of Pisa. How cool is that!
I just wanted to share this with you. Thanks for your help with ordering these."
