PressReleasePing - August 24, 2016 -Hopkin<strong>to</strong>n, MA --<br />

Oc<strong>to</strong>ber is National <strong>Self</strong>-<strong>Promotion</strong> <strong>Month</strong>. It began several years<br />

ago when Debbie Allen decided that something had <strong>to</strong> be done <strong>to</strong><br />

make it easier for brands <strong>to</strong> promote <strong>the</strong>mselves. This year <strong>BRAVA</strong><br />

<strong>Marketing</strong> <strong><strong>Promotion</strong>s</strong> urges local businesses <strong>to</strong> commemorate <strong>the</strong><br />

month by finding fresh new ways <strong>to</strong> approach self-promotion.<br />

The right promotional item can stand out in <strong>the</strong> mind <strong>of</strong> a cus<strong>to</strong>mer,<br />

As a business owner, you should<br />

always find ways <strong>to</strong> think outside <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong><br />

box. Building your brand takes time and<br />

effort. We hope <strong>the</strong>se suggestions will<br />

help you <strong>to</strong> capitalize on <strong>Self</strong>-<strong>Promotion</strong><br />

<strong>Month</strong> by striking a creative nerve that<br />

ultimately results in exponential growth<br />

for your business.<br />

but your competi<strong>to</strong>rs may use <strong>the</strong> exact same promo product. Accordingly, you should not only invest in <strong>the</strong> right promo<br />

products but also in <strong>the</strong> right form <strong>of</strong> distribution—particularly, what you’re looking for is an innovative way <strong>to</strong> get your<br />

promo products in<strong>to</strong> your audience’s hands.


There is still time <strong>to</strong> prepare for <strong>Self</strong>-<strong>Promotion</strong> <strong>Month</strong> but Oc<strong>to</strong>ber will be here soon. Here are a few ways <strong>to</strong> bolster<br />

your company's brand - this Oc<strong>to</strong>ber - using promotional products.<br />

Host a Competition<br />

Who doesn’t love a good contest? They draw prospects in and can <strong>of</strong>fer an amazing opportunity <strong>to</strong> creatively promote<br />

your goods or services. You could <strong>of</strong>fer a variety <strong>of</strong> promotional items <strong>to</strong> <strong>the</strong> winner and runners-ups. In this win-win<br />

situation, <strong>the</strong> participants revel in <strong>the</strong> thrill <strong>of</strong> winning <strong>the</strong> competition while you get <strong>to</strong> build your brand.<br />

And don’t forget <strong>the</strong> contestants are all potential cus<strong>to</strong>mers <strong>of</strong> your business. Additionally, <strong>the</strong>y freely promote your<br />

business as <strong>the</strong>y compete <strong>to</strong> win <strong>the</strong> <strong>to</strong>p prize. Online competitions that are integrated with <strong>the</strong> numerous social media<br />

platforms is a great way <strong>to</strong> get new cus<strong>to</strong>mers and positive PR for your brand.<br />

Unlike o<strong>the</strong>r means <strong>of</strong> promotional product distribution, winners are more inclined <strong>to</strong> keep <strong>the</strong> evidence <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong>ir efforts;<br />

thus creating brand loyalty.<br />

A Rewards Program<br />

As a business looking <strong>to</strong> build your brand, you can create a rewards program <strong>to</strong> motivate clients <strong>to</strong> buy again. Of<br />

course, this creative way <strong>of</strong> getting your promotional gifts <strong>to</strong> your potential cus<strong>to</strong>mers depends on <strong>the</strong> types <strong>of</strong> products<br />

and services that your business <strong>of</strong>fers. For example, many c<strong>of</strong>fee shops and restaurants <strong>of</strong>fer a membership card <strong>to</strong><br />

cus<strong>to</strong>mers with <strong>the</strong> added bonus <strong>of</strong> a free c<strong>of</strong>fee or meal after a specific number <strong>of</strong> purchases.<br />

While having a high-quality service is great for repeat business, a rewards program can also be an excellent way <strong>to</strong><br />

keep cus<strong>to</strong>mers coming for more. The prospect <strong>of</strong> receiving freebies can spread quickly, and most cus<strong>to</strong>mers always<br />

want <strong>to</strong> know <strong>the</strong>y are getting more than what <strong>the</strong>y purchased.<br />

A Social Media Campaign<br />

Distributing promotional items via social media has lots <strong>of</strong> benefits and can be an excellent way <strong>to</strong> promote brand<br />

awareness online. Your fans can retweet, share, and like posts associated with your campaign; which in turn gives you<br />

access <strong>to</strong> prospects that you would have never encountered—if not for <strong>the</strong> advent <strong>of</strong> social media.<br />

One <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> advantages with social media is that <strong>the</strong>re is so much room for creativity. Social Media is <strong>the</strong> best platform for<br />

fostering engagement with your prospects, while inviting genuine cus<strong>to</strong>mer feedback.<br />

Ano<strong>the</strong>r way that you can invite feedback from your audience, via social media, is <strong>to</strong> ask cus<strong>to</strong>mers <strong>to</strong> help name your<br />

new products. The person with <strong>the</strong> best answer could earn a gift in <strong>the</strong> form <strong>of</strong> a promotional item. This translates in<strong>to</strong><br />

minimal work for your organization, yet could yield high exposure for your brand.<br />

Business Conventions<br />

While trade shows are among <strong>the</strong> most traditional means <strong>of</strong> disseminating promotional products, <strong>the</strong>re are<br />

opportunities <strong>to</strong> make your brand stand out.<br />

One option is <strong>to</strong> <strong>of</strong>fer attendees an opportunity <strong>to</strong> get in on <strong>the</strong> excitement <strong>of</strong> a treasure hunt. As long as receive<br />

permission from <strong>the</strong> organizers, this way <strong>of</strong> giving your branded gifts away will leave a lasting impression on all who<br />

participate in <strong>the</strong> hunt.<br />

Remember that at most trade conventions; nearly everyone is handing out promotional items. <strong>Most</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong>se<br />

promotional wares find <strong>the</strong>mselves in <strong>the</strong> garbage by <strong>the</strong> end <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> day. Accordingly, you must engage your prospects<br />

in ways that are more creative than your competi<strong>to</strong>rs.<br />
