Save Postage - Put Your Promo Material in Your "Product Package" When I was young, I couldn't wait for my father to pick up his dry cleaning every week. His shirts were always starched, folded over cardboard and boxed neatly. The big attraction for me were the games, simple crossword puzzles and colorable cartoons that were printed on the cardboard. My father didn't dare change drycleaners! If you are selling a product, including your promo material in every package you deliver or send out is a great way to increase sales and save postage. If your product is shipped in a plastic bag, why not redesign your product label so that a short newsletter or tip sheet is printed on the back. Saves effort, time and money. Is Your Product "What the Experts Use"? Be on the lookout for the "experts" who use your products and include these testimonials in the package design. Examples: certain toothpaste is recommended by "1 out of 3 dentists". A brand of car oil is what "the experts (mechanics or race car drivers) use".
