There are so many options when it comes to offline advertising. It can be low-cost and within your budget. You have your regular distribution of business cards, flyers, magnets, and free promotional items to give away. How about something a little bit out of the ordinary? How about something to let others show you mean business? No pun intended.
Here are four creative, low cost offline holiday advertising ideas. Take some of these ideas as is or add a little twist to make them your own.
1. Door prizes for office parties. Give your spouse a heads up about offering a coupon and or a small gift basket for their company’s office party or for anyone else’s for that matter. To spread the word, make up a detailed flyer with either pull tabs or business cards attached. Walk the walk and promote yourself through word of mouth. If it’s in your budget offer a small token for the person who you’re doing business with. This just makes it extra special.
2. Personalized return address labels. You can print them out yourself, order them at Vistaprint.com or have a rubber stamp made. You have your name, address and city, so how about add to it a short, witty, but catchy tagline or slogan with your web address? These can be used year round unless you plan on having holiday graphics.
3. Gift tags. These can be ordered too, but you can make them extra special by creating them yourself because you can make them any size. Add a tagline, a personal note or double the gift tag as a savings/discount card for your products/services. Add your website’s URL and a promotional code if needed to make purchases online. This would be convenient for anyone, but especially for out-of-town friends and associates.
