Not sure about using poster advertising
for your online business? Check out the following 10 benefits to determine if
they would speed your business toward success.
Benefit 1 - Budget-friendly. They're a
whole lot cheaper than taking out an ad in a newspaper or television.
Benefit 2 - Flexibility. They are
flexible advertising tools that easily promote any business. They can be
printed to any size, shape or paper weight.
Benefit 3 - Variety. They offer a
variety of uses such as, event publicizing, service promotion or to sell a
product. Many different fonts and colors can be used and images to
enhance your company's brand.
Benefit 4 - Readability. They are quick
and easy to read making them an excellent choice for the window shopper or
passerby. Only a few words or phrases are generally used.
They need to "capture" the reader's attention and motivate them to
take action. Unlike newspaper ads or brochures and flyers which are sent
through mail by companies who hope their prospective customers will read them
in full.
Benefit 5 - Visibility. If placed in an
area with lots of foot traffic, such as in a store in a mall, your poster can
be seen hundreds or thousands of times. Plus, the same
person may see it many times over. Keep your poster at adult eye level for best
visibility.
Benefit 6 - Credibility. They've been
around an awfully long time and people trust them. They are used to seeing
them. For this very reason alone - they are trusted - is probably
due to the fact they are most likely seen in public places of business.
Benefit 7 - Effectiveness. They
contribute a second opinion to ads a prospective customer may have already seen
on Google, on television or heard on the radio. A customer will be
more likely to take a second look at a product if the advertising is done in
this duplication manner.
Benefit 8 - Controllable. It's all
about location, location, location. With posters, you can target businesses
where like-minded customers hang out. People who would be looking
for just the thing you are advertising. Suppose your daughter's Girl Scout
troop is selling their fabulous cookies. Hang a poster next
door to the local bakery in the mall. Then, sit back and watch hungry people
eye up your advertisement and buy your cookies.
Benefit 9 - Long shelf life. They
generally hold up well and can be printed on high gloss paper for added
durability.
Benefit 10 - Customized designs. Most
can be printed with all of your brand logo, colors and font styles so your
business is represented in a professional manner. In plain
language, posters are wonderful!
To determine if your poster has
successfully increased your company's profits, ask yourself this question. Has
it brought in more people?
If so, I'm sure you will agree they are
an excellent way to promote your business.
