Why Giving Away Stuff Works
By charen smith
Have you heard of object marketing? It’s a way of assigning your words and text to your product to make it more appealing to your consumers. And what do you think would be the best word to use to attract that much attention for your business? You guessed it right. It’s ‘free’. Attach it to any of your color printing ad campaign and I’m sure that you’ll be able to generate as many leads as you can for your products and services.
The word ‘free’ has always been a very powerful word indeed in the commercial industry. Who doesn’t like receiving stuff or items that are given free? Even high-paid stars get excited when they receive free items during special events and occasions. That’s why many are trying very hard to become part of a special event. In addition to being seen and photographed, the free stuff can be an irresistible lure for these actors and actresses.
Even myself, I get very excited indeed when I get free items every time I open my mailbox. Unexpected promotional items can definitely make my day. This just goes to show that an item given for free would always be appreciated and valued by a consumer like me.
This is also what would make your business more appealing to your target customers. With so many marketing tools cramped in your target client’s mailbox everyday, it is crucial to make yourself unique to attract more attention. In fact, you really need to stand out so your prospect would want to read what you have to say.
This is the idea behind object marketing. When you need to pique interest so you could make an initial contact or even get an appointment especially with the head honcho, you might as well invest in something that would make you come out as something out of the ordinary. And that’s where the free stuff comes in.
The idea behind object marketing is to let your target audience associate your giveaway with another idea – that is, to buy your product or avail of your service. The bottom line then is to attach your message to the right merchandise. If you’re targeting a small and select list of customer base then a really expensive item can be your best bet. This is especially true if you’re actually selling an expensive piece of product to a high end potential buyer.
The key to successful object marketing is actually in the stuff you give away. It may be as expensive as a silver spoon from Cartier, or as inexpensive as a notepad with your logo on it. It is crucial to note that not only should your stuff complement your message, but most importantly, it should also match your target market.
One final note: there are hundreds of promotional items available in the market. Companies have even established their worth as suppliers of this particular niche. You just need to consider your requirements and remember to order a large enough quantity to save you on costs.
