Grab the Attention of Parents, Grandparents and Children this Halloween

Halloween is approaching and we wanted to give you a few tips on how you can use promotional items to gain exposure for your company. Learn why Halloween is a holiday that you don't want to miss.

Fall is the busiest time of year for most companies as everyone gear up for back to school, Halloween, Thanksgiving and Christmas. There is also October, and National Breast Cancer Awareness Month as well as many other anniversaries, recognitions and reasons to create and support health and wellness. There are fall festivals, haunted houses, and plenty of other family friendly, events that you can use to create goodwill in the community and spread the word about your promotions.

Information is available online from trade associations, non profit organizations, the government and other web based resources have a wealth of information about your target audience and current trends. For example, we looked online and found that according to the National Retail Federation, Halloween is second only to Christmas as the biggest spending holiday, with over 170 million people estimated to participate in activities in 2012.

Spending for 2012 was projected to reach 8 billion on costumes, candy and decorations for adults, children and pets. If consumers are spending that much on Halloween, it would be wise to get in on the action with your own Halloween promotion, even if your business has absolutely nothing to do with Halloween. More than likely, some of your customers may be part of the 170 million people that anticipated participation in Halloween activities.

You can use this information to promote your business by expanding on what people normally do for Halloween.  We know that the average family will buy costumes for the kids, adults and even pets. They will also decorate and buy candy and treats. They will be frequenting fall festivals, hayrides, haunted houses, amusement parks, zoos and more. If you're one of those businesses, you'll want to have items to advertise sales, exclusive perks and special offers.

With the popularity of Halloween and Fall, your customers may also participate in family friendly activities sponsored by churches and youth organizations.  Have your advertising message distributed on a Halloween related items to grab their attention at a time when they are in the mood to receive it.

What Can Salons and Spas Do to Thrive in Today's Market?

We love being pampered and most of us consider impeccable grooming to be a personal and professional requirement.  However, because of the sustained downturn in the economy, the success of beauty industry professionals is not only attributed to skills and ability, success also depends on economic factors as well.  Because these services are typically considered as extras (nice to have, but not as much as food and shelter), changes in the economy have a direct impact on the industry and the ability for salons and spas to thrive or even survive.

There is a growing number of people that are either forgoing these services altogether or learning to perform core services themselves.  Additionally, the high end skin and hair care products sold in salons are now being replaced by lower cost items sold in retail stores. Clients that frequented salons and spas before the recession have been forced to become more budget conscious.

Whether clients have been deeply affected by the economy or not, they want more value for a dollar.   These changes should cause salon owners to take stock and begin asking some of the hard questions. For example who is the new recession conscious audience for salon and spa services? How has the audience changed over time and has the industry kept up with the changes? This information may be different based on location, services offered and the experience level of the salon operators.

10 Questions for Salon Owners to Answer as a First Step

Here are some questions that salon owners, managers and operators should ask if they plan to not just survive, but thrive during the economic challenges facing large and small companies alike: 

1. What changes have you noticed in your salon or spa? If you haven't noticed any changes, and everything is humming along, you can skip the rest of the questions.
2. Are there other factors (than the economy) that have contributed to the current changes in client behavior?
3. Has your salon changed to accommodate the needs of your customers?  
4. Does your salon create an "experience" for the client that exceeds their expectations?  What does the typical customer experience when they visit your salon? Is it the experience you would like for them to have?
5. How does your salon communicate information to current and potential customers? Is your salon on board with using technology to communicate specials, company news, and other useful information?  
6. Are you showing clients that you respect their time? If they have a short wait, are you providing an atmosphere that makes the wait pleasant?
7. Are you offering value added services or are you charging the same pre-recession prices?
8. What are you doing to make it easy for customers to do business with you?
9. What can you do to make the customer more engaged with your business? 
10. Is your business a good corporate citizen? What role does your salon play in the community? 
11. Are you taking a passive role (only looking for business to come to you), or are you reaching out to the areas where your customers work and play? 

Maintaining the status quo may no longer be feasible with the current economic dynamics.  Consider that (1) the average family's hectic lifestyles are even more hectic, (2) the ability to use technology provides free communication to the masses, and (3) the need to consider value based options for customers who need them will allow more customers to consider your business as an option.

Word of mouth advertising and holding the line on pricing may not allow you to reach your goals if you're not reaching more clients with your current offerings or if no one can afford your services.  Now more than ever, it's time to look at the way you market your products/services and make any reasonable changes to keep your business thriving and relevant.

Review the slides in this presentation and consider using promotional items to rebuild, rebrand and reinvent yourself as a leader in your industry.

Gremon Marketing from Gremon Marketing/Custom T-Shirt Makers

Promotional items that are geared toward your salon and spa clients can also help you improve your image, and spread the word about new ideas and ways of doing things.  They can also help your company play a greater role in your community.  More positive activity in the community will help to establish your company as the "go to" business in your area.

Effective marketing is the key to continued success and the book below is available on Amazon, 12 Months of Marketing for Salon and Spa: Ideas, Events and Promotions for Salon and Spa by Elizabeth Kraus helps to answer some additional questions below:

1. How can new stylists and estheticians carve out clientele as they launch their career? 
2. What can industry professionals at any stage of their career do to create a new normal that transcends economic factors? 
3. What should they be doing to take control of their business, growth of their client base, retail sales and income?

Help Your Customers Make the Connection with Promotional Items

Your company may spend huge sums on marketing and advertising... and it can still be easy to miss the mark when trying to make a connection with customers.  Social media is all the rage, but if it doesn't result in a tangible return on investment, how much should be invested in all that posting and tweeting?  A large number of followers on social media should translate into a relative number of visits, interactions and ultimately buyers for it to pay off.  Advertisers can spend  hours posting and tweeting to their followers with little or no actual return on investment.

When used correctly and in conjunction with other marketing media, promotional items can be extremely effective in helping your customers make the connection between your company and their need for what your company has to offer. They repeat and reinforce your marketing message in homes, offices and events where your customer spend most of their time. Most people that receive them use them or see them on a regular basis, making recognizing the name of the company that gave them out easy.  When customers are ready to make a purchase for your product or service, contact information (on the promo item) is easily accessible.  For ideas on using them with your marketing message view the slides below.

If you're not sure how to get started, begin the process by thinking about your current marketing message and how you're communicating your message to customers.  Is your marketing message reaching your customers? Is it causing customers to take the desired actions?  If so, you're on the right track, congratulations!  If not, you might want to revisit the message and/or the delivery method.

You may also want to review your brand, customer experience and consistency. Are you sending mixed messages between your marketing and the actual customer experience? How do you want customers to feel when they visit your business? How should they feel about your company when they leave your establishment? Have you built your brand in a way that supports the experience you want for current and potential customers? Is your total package (logo, marketing materials, product, service, appearance and physical atmosphere) consistent with the brand identity you've created?  For example, if your brand was built around having a sense of fun and adventure, is that what your customers get when they visit?  What about when they visit online?

Have you clearly identified your ideal customers? From the previous example, are your ideal customers looking for fun and adventure? Why should they do business with your company instead of your competition?

These are important questions to ask when creating a marketing message that really connects with your audience.  Promotional items can bring home the connection from your message to your customers when you're not around.  They're tangible reminders of the great experience your customers have had with your company and your events.  To obtain more information please email or call us today at 937-317-0252.

Why You Should Use Promotional Items, Especially Today

In  today's competitive market everyone wants more value. Consumers are watching their spending and tend to gravitate toward anything that will help their money go further.  Companies are doing more with fewer employees, and customers are dealing with rising expenses and wages that are at best staying the same. 

Companies have held the line on spending and their marketing and advertising budgets are frozen in fear.  The "necessities" have been paid at the expense of anything that has to do with frivolous things like marketing until things turn around.  I'm just being sarcastic, but some people have been waiting for a turn around in the economy since 2008, and they won't spend another dime for advertising and marketing, until things are better long term.

How To Use Promotional Items to
Make Things Better

Believe it or not, now it's more important than ever to promote your business.  If you're not advertising and actively promoting your business, you are probably losing some of your loyal customers who are hearing nothing but the news that ranges from bad to cautiously optimistic, which in turn makes them more leery of spending.

To counter this information, you will need to find ideas that will give these customers a message that motivates them to do business with you.  Coupons, two for one specials, buy 10 get the 11th one free, manufacturer's specials, a contest or something creative that will bring these customers out of hiding so that you don't lose loyal customers. If not they may not return after things get better.  Even worse they may find another resource for your products and services.

By not advertising, you are also missing opportunities to capture new customers who are doing well and may be looking for someone who does what you do.  Additionally, while your competition is not spending on advertising, it presents a great opportunity for you to obtain a larger share of the market. Going down to zero expenditures for marketing and advertising is a recipe for disaster for any business.

Promotional items are powerful marketing tools that have a low cost per impression. According to research conducted by the Promotional Products Association International (PPAI) promotional items are in about 80% of homes in the U.S.  They travel well at home and in the office.  If you're on the fence regarding the power of these great marketing tools, please view this video and contact us for help with your next order.

Using Promotional Items to Gain More Leads at Trade Shows

How Promotional Items Work at Trade Shows

Promotional items are a wonderful addition to your trade show exhibit.  They work best when they are combined with other marketing activities to reach your target audience.

They work to hold your marketing message and keep it front and center in the minds of perspective buyers after the event ends.

Keep in mind that the best promotional items are ones that your prospects can use and see on a daily basis. for example, items that sit on desks, hang on walls and stick to refrigerators and file cabinets.  Items that hold family photos like magnets, picture frames, and clips work well for this.  If you need ideas, we can help!

Trade shows will be in full swing during the Spring and summer months. Use these tips to learn more about your customers, have fun and book more appointments.

1.Learn something about your potential customers. Ever had a burning question you always want to know about potential customers? Give away a promotional gift that is imprinted with your company brand in exchange for completing a survey. Make the survey available online for convenience and provide the ability to share the survey with colleagues. Give respondents an email confirmation when they complete the online survey. They can show you the email to receive the promotional gift when they visit your booth.

2. Keep it lighthearted. Make a promotional product part of a game or other fun activity that draws attention to your booth.  Nothing hard,complicated or unsafe, but make it fun and profitable at the same time. For example miniature golf, some form of bingo or trivia that ties into your product or industry.  

3. Make an Appointment. Give out promotional items to each person that schedules a free sales consultation.

4. Create a Sneak Peek. Offer a free sample to each visitor with a promotional item that has information on how to order the full sized product.

How to Pick the Right Promotional Item

Is This the Right
Item for Your Event?

When buying promotional items for a group it's sometimes hard to make a purchase that will be a perfect fit for  everyone. This has been a common concern so we put together some questions, that when answered can shed light on selecting the right item for your group. You may need to answer more questions based on the event type. Brainstorm with your team, and if you need help, please contact us:

Artwork— The imprint can make any item into a keepsake that has special meaning. Weddings, anniversaries, grand openings, and other milestones can be commemorated with an imprint that includes the date. So the question becomes, what image will be used for the imprint? How many colors are in the imprint? Do you need help? If you don't have artwork, we can help or provide stock art (ready made) options for most occasions.

Timeline—How much time to you have before the event? Do you have at least 6-8 weeks? Can you afford to pay for rush shipment and/or production? When online or fax orders are received, clarification may be needed. Once the order is submitted to production, it normally ships within 5 - 10 working days. However if artwork is created, time will be added for approval. During busy times of the year, it may take longer for normal production. It's best to assure that you have items in hand one to two weeks before your event.

Goals —What do you plan to accomplish with the campaign? What do you plan to accomplish by giving the items? Are they intended to be given out as gifts? Be as specific as possible so that you can track your results. 

Audience — How many people will attend?  What are the characteristics of the people who will receive the items? What age group do they belong to, what are their hobbies and interests? Will the items be given to current customers, trade show attendees, or prospective customers?  Any information you have that will help you determine the kinds of items they like would be helpful in finding the perfect items.

Theme — Is there a theme (colors, type, occasion, etc.) for the event? if so items that relate to the event theme will go a long way toward finding the perfect item.

Action —What action do I want the recipients to take? For example if you want them to make a purchase or follow your social media activities you might want to package the gift with an explanation that tells what you want recipients to do.  You can also include the action as part of the imprint message.

Outcome — How will I follow up to see how well the campaign went after the event is over? How will I measure success?

Planning is key to achieving positive results in your marketing campaigns. Visit our blog for ideas and tips that will help you reach your marketing goals.  Pick the items that will work best for the intended audience.

You’ve probably received a promotional item and didn’t know its purpose or how powerful it is in making sure you remember the company that gave it to you.

Otherwise known as a “freebie”, promo gift, or incentive, these items are presented with purchases or advertising every day. If you have ever made a major purchase, been to a sporting event, a product launch, a tradeshow or a concert, chances are you have received a promotional item.

These items range from pens, bags, t-shirts and caps to small appliances and household items. Remember how it felt to get a free item with the name of your favorite company, band or team printed on it? It always makes us feel good to receive something “extra” that is useful and integrates well into our daily lives.

A survey conducted by the Promotional Products Association International (PPAI) shows what consumers think about promotional items as well as the company that gave them the item. 

Here’s What They Found:

• 83% of American consumers surveyed like receiving a promotional product with an advertising message

• 48% would like to receive promotional products more often

• 38% feel promotional products serve as a constant reminder of the advertiser 

Most consumers are inundated with messages all day, from emails, social media and other forms of advertising. However as opposed to feeling spammed or otherwise overwhelmed, consumers actually like receiving promotional items.

Salon Marketing Idea #1

Make Your Salon or Spa Stand
Out From the Crowd

If you are a hair stylist, make up artist, massage therapist or cosmetics salesperson, you know that your business relies on  knowledge and skills, excellent service and great products. As with most businesspeople, you're constantly building customer relationships to create loyalty, great word of mouth and repeat business. You're also prospecting for new business so that your company grows.

And while it's always competitive, there are a variety of ways to distinguish yourself from the crowd.  They key is in find the best way to stand out, without being a pest. 

How do you make yourself memorable? By using promotional items like the lipstick pens displayed here. Promotional items are frequently called the "silent salesmen" because they spread your marketing message, even when you're not around. Give your customers unique, tangible and practical items that will remind them of the great service they received from you and it will go a long way to beat the competition.

In addition to using promotional items, be sure to reward loyalty and keep your current customers coming back with monthly specials and discounts when they refer friends. Provide extra rewards for customers who refer numerous friends, getting them excited to help grow your business.

If you have an upcoming event, sales presentation, party or demo, give customers great take away items that fit with the theme of the demo or industry. Items like these serve double duty and they're a great investment for your marketing dollars.  They display your logo and as an added benefit,  they are great at starting conversations (hopefully about your company) when the pen is used to write notes. They are small enough to fit in a small purse or cosmetic bag, and will be used (not thrown away) after the event is over.


Give customers a take away item that is practical, and more likely to be used after each presentation or demo, so that they will remember the great service they received from your company.

7 Tips to Keep Customers Motivated After the Holidays

Be Creative to Bring In
Customers After the Holidays

This article is written for salons and spas, but the concepts apply to any other industry that experiences a slump after the holidays.  

The New Year is full of promise and adventure for most people. Full of  resolutions and good intentions. Everyone is optimistic about the future.  

At the same time, the bills from the holidays have started to roll in and the reality of holiday spending has started to sink in. The new year can inspire salon customers to cut back on spending. Salon services may be seen as an not needed, especially in comparison to food, housing and gasoline. 

If they don't cut it out altogether, there may be a tendency to do it themselves (DIY) or spread the frequency of services out over a longer time. With these challenges, what's a salon owner to do? This is the time to do some planning and answer some initial questions that will help you balance out the peaks and valleys in sales. So the first question is what opportunities are available after the holidays that will bring in customers, that could be offered, even in December to make this time less stressful? Starting to think of the slow time before it happens will increase the likelihood that the slump will be a thing of the past.  

Here are some ideas to get you started: 

The month of January can provide some opportunities that may not be obvious.  There are always opportunities to connect with your customers each time they walk in the door. You can provide them with incentives that will ensure a steady stream of customers during this down time.  

1. Offer your customers a referral bonus for spreading the word to friends and family. If the person comes in for service, reward your customer.  For example, give them a promotional items like the ones shown in the picture that have the discounted service and a promo code on them. When a new customer refers the promo code they will receive the discount and so will the person who referred them. Tie it to a specific time frame that coincides with a slow time for your business.
2. January has New Year's Eve, which is a time that people want to look good. Offer a new year's eve special for everyone that comes in to obtain services during the last week of December. This will energize sales and set the stage for January.
3. January is also National Thank You Month and what better time to say thank you to your customers for their business! Saying thank you goes a long way toward gaining more business. Give out a promotional item as a thank you. The promotional items in perfect over other items because it doesn't double duty. It reminds customers of your business for brand recognition, and it's a great way to say thank you. As an added incentive, you could give a larger gift (grand prize) to the customer who brings in the most referrals.
4. It's also Book Blitz Month, and the perfect time (if your customers are into books), to have a Book of the Month, kind of like Oprah's Book Club where you have discussions about the book on certain days of the week.  Those activities can draw additional customers to the shop where they can be serviced while discussing the book.
5. February is a big month for couples with Valentines Day. Start planning your Valentine's Day specials. Maybe you want to offer specials for men and women.  Offer discounts if couples receive service on the same day. 
6. February is also American Heart Month, February 1 is National Wear Red Day. Order red t-shirts or heart shaped promotional items to give away to promote awareness. Sponsor a fundraising page and take pictures to post on your sponsor website. Have all your stylists wear red t-shirts with your own message and take pictures to post online.   Takes the Go Red for Women Challenge and forward the proceeds to the American Heart Association.
7. There are many weddings planned for Spring. In March, offer packages for the bridal party and mother of the bride... And the list goes on.

Advertise specials, events in social media like Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn.  If possible take reservations, registrations or check ins on social media to provide a way to track your results.  Give customers a discount for "liking" your Facebook page. Use signs and posters inside your shop to advertise as well.

Once the new customers arrive, make sure to keep them motivated to return over the long term. Customers are trying to make the most of their moneyand if you keep this in mind and find ways to reach out to them, making it convenient for them to reach back you will never have a serious shortage of customers.

There are plenty of other opportunities to make a connection with customers during this down time. Use incentives like loyalty cards, gift certificates, and promotional giveaways. For more information please review our article Using Events to Market Your Business.

Using Events to Market Your Business

Napkins, Cups and Signs are
Important Additions to Any Event

What better way to connect with customers than an in person event? Events can be hosted offsite or at your facility. They provide an opportunity to educate, interact, demonstrate and obtain feedback from your target audience. Remember, that effective marketing means your prospects will remember your name and know where to find you. Not only should you pick the right way to reach your customers, but you need to have a rock-solid message too. 

Ideas include using the event to kick off a marketing campaign or a product launch to gain even more mileage. Once you determine the event type that will work best for your campaign, you can begin planning. Choose an event that is open to the public or an invitation-only event for your VIP customers. Events are an excellent way to distinguish your business from the competition with a theme and message that packs a powerful punch. 

Examples of possible events include open houses, grand openings, product launches, holiday and occasion inspired gatherings, mini seminars, lunch and learn and live demonstrations, shopping parties, there are many ways to attract your customers to an event. Customer events, when geared towards education and appreciation, can pay off in terms of strengthening your ties to existing customers while uncovering new ones. 

To help you make the most of your event marketing efforts, here are a few things to consider:

Before the Event:
• Invitations: Mail or hand out invitations to customers and foot traffic. Include a direct marketing piece that will remind them of the event. Create an email invitation that can be sent and accessed by all email and social media followers. Servces like Mail Chimp provides templates that can be used to make creation and distribution easier. Using sites like eVite to send free invitations to all the folks on your email list can make things easier. Guest replies are tracked automatically, providing an accurate headcount. eVite also allows guests to invite more people to the event. 

• Build Excitement: By using targeted tweets, posts and social media methods to build anticipation. Consider developing special newsletters dedicated to the event and spotlighting key speakers, feature employees, highlight exciting news and presentations. Be sure your content addresses the entire event, not just your participation in it. 

• Order Promotional Items: Make a lasting impression after the event with plenty of promotional items, business cards, brochures and other printed materials that guests can take with them. Order items 6-8 weeks prior to your event. Allow more time during peak seasons and holidays.
        • Cups, Napkins and Plates: If you’re serving food and beverages at your event order printed cups, napkins and plates that displays the name of your company, how to reach you and the name of the event if wanted. 
        • Signs and Banners: Order banners and signs to advertise your event. To provide practical, tangible items that remind guests of the event, use thoughtfully selected promotional items in the colors that tie them to your theme.
• Sales and Discounts: Consider having a sale during the event. Offer discounts say for the first so many guests through the door. Print the sale information on brochures, cards, and brochures. Send offers via social media. 

During the Event:
• Registration: Allow tech savvy guests to use mobile check-in technology to eliminate snaking registration lines. Have staff available to handle check in and distribution for of any items you want each guest to receive. 

Tumblers, Wine Glasses and Cups

• Publicity: Use social media during the event, take pictures use posts to social media (Instagram and Pinterest for example) to provide visuals and capture video snippets for sharing on You Tube. Mobile check-in also allows you to connect with attendees during the event to let them know of breaking news, schedule changes and other show activities. Remember to make this an option for your attendees, as opposed to texting them without their consent. 

• Keepsakes: During the event, hand out promotional keepsakes that will remind your guests of the event and how they can reach you in the future. When selecting items use your knowledge of the target audience and relate to your theme. Choose items are tied to your business, for example a spa related item a promotional item like something for grooming, lotions, massagers, for a spa or think of things that will tie to your theme. Items that are useable after the event will contribute significantly to brand recognition and spreading the word to family, friends and more.
