Christmas in July
07/30/08
I’ve just returned from the land down under, where the winter season is set and the night brisk air forces me to wear a heavy jacket. I noticed while I was in Australia all the “Christmas in July” parties that were going on at the local clubs. An Aussie told me how it’s strange to hear the holiday jingles “chestnuts roasting on an open fire…” or “walkin’ in a winter wonderland” because Christmas is actually summertime over there. Now I know where the term “Christmas in July” comes from! They’re just making up for all the seasonal feelings that we get during our frosty winter days.
Which brings me to Christmas/Holiday Promotionals!
Even with all the hype that the November-December months are just another “hype,” it’s a great season to show your appreciation to customers, friends, family, and employees. ‘Tis the season to make an extra effort to show your thanks and love.
The early bird gets the worm, right? A word of advice: get your holiday gifts as early as possible to beat the rush and to avoid delays on shipping. How many of us are guilty of procrastination: shopping last minute amidst the angry co-procrastinators, fighting for the best deals and getting that one perfect gift before it runs out!
The same thing goes for corporate and employee gifts. If you need to order personalized items in bulk for your entire clan, start NOW! It takes some time to choose the right gift, get the list of names, production time, and shipping. If you do end up needing gifts last minute, don’t hesitate to call us because we can do rush orders without skimping out on quality. Or perhaps you are head of an organization and need to recognize officers/members at a Winter Banquet. We work with you to find a unique and fitting professional gift. Ask us about special holiday offers.
We’ve started our holiday cards already, 6 months in advance because we’re super excited for the season to come. Don’t worry, if you need us, we got you!
So start thinking about Christmas.. in July!
back to school SPiRiT: LoUd&CLeaR!!
07/17/08
Looking back at my high school career, I find that what I remember the most is all the fun I had at school (or club) sponsored events – the matching t-shirts at Key Club’s Fall Rally, business cards at FBLA state conferences, colorful banners advertising the choir car washes, and matching embroidered backpacks among the many for ASB camp at UCSB. Members of these clubs can’t be anymore different from one another, however united through their interests (and through their matching shirts) they took on district events by storm. This was all thanks to effective marketing strategies.
Before you start looking at promotional items, you will need to come up with a color scheme and a theme. This strategy is an effective way for unification and helps eliminate some of the other more random products available on the extensive market. One good example would be our outfit at ASB camp. Since our school ASB was new to this particular camp, we were careful to come prepared for battle. We chose red, white, and blue to go along with our school colors and a nautical theme. The results were navy blue button down shirts with our names emblazoned in red on the left chest above our positions, white capris, and matching Jack Purcells. Our accessories included nautical hats embroidered with our school name, magnetic name tags, business cards, a flag, and of course our red, white, and blue megaphone. By the end of the first day, it was clear that despite our diminutive size we weren’t an ASB to be messed with.
Here are some examples of new and unique ways to market your organization:
- Lifeguard/Swim Club: Whistle blowers, Towels, Gym Bags, First-Aid Kits, Lotions, Flip Flops, Sunscreen
- Red Cross Club: First-Aid Kits, Pill Boxes, Hand Sanitizers
- Traveling Club: Travel Kits, Umbrellas, Shoe Bags, Luggage Tags, Flashlights, Backpacks, Beach Bags, Passport Covers, Playing Cards
- Book Club: Notebooks, Book Parks, Journals, Reading Lights, Coffee Warmers
- Sports: Soft Footballs, Pennants, Foam Hands, Jerseys, Pom Poms, Jump Ropes, Visors, Pedometers, Water Bottles, Golf Balls
With a wide range of items to choose from, there’s always something for every organization. SCHOOL SPIRIT has never been easier.
