Designing and Mailing A Jewelry Wholesale Catalog

2008-08-11T01:06:00.001+07:00

By Ethan O. Tanner

Do you want to sell your jewelry? If you do, selling
jewelry wholesale is a big business, and you will
Unquestionably need a catalog of your offerings! Constructing
a catalog isn't as difficult as you might think. First off,
you have two options: an online catalog or a print
catalog. The choice is yours.

An online catalog is the least expensive
way to advertise your jewelry wholesale company,
but with all of the online jewelry stores and online
wholesalers, it may not be the best way
to make sales. A print catalog ought to be strongly considered for a direct mailing.

If you make your own jewelry, you will need to take
good pictures of the jewelry - preferably laid on a
velvet setting. Black or blue velvet will expose the
jewelry the most. You can take these pictures
yourself with a digital camera, or have a
Professional person take the photographs. It is more affordable to
do it yourself, of course.

Load the pictures up onto your computer, and use
publishing software, such as Microsoft Publisher to
design and layout your catalog. This may take a
little time and patience, but it is much cheaper than
having someone else do it.

Since you will need hundreds, if not thousands of
copies of your catalog, your best bet will be to save
the catalog on a CD and bring it to a print shop that
can cover the job. This will cost money -
Particularly since the pages need to be glossy and
in color, and the catalog will need to be bound -
but this expense will be well deserving it if you will be
doing a mass direct mailing.

In order to do a mass direct mailing, you simply
find a respectable company who either sells mailing
lists or does the mailing for you. You can actually
Call for lists of mailing addresses where the person
has expressed an interest in purchasing wholesale
jewelry - or any other criteria that you set. In most
cases, it is better to have the company handle the
mailing for you. They will get the best rates on the
mailing because they can apply the bulk mail rate.

Make sure that you use an honorable printer, and a
reputable direct mail company! This is investing
in the future of your business, and your jewelry
wholesale catalog needs to be flawless in every way -
and the mailing needs to go off without hassle!

Trade Shows-Does Sex Sell?

2008-08-10T04:20:00.001+07:00

By dexter

Does sex sell at trade show have been a major issue for the past few years? We know sex sell on TV and on bulletin boards. We are in a society where sex is all around us. Do they really sell at trade shows? First of all let?s discuss what we mean by sex at trade shows.

Trade show exhibitors use scandalously dressed model in their booth to draw attention to their product. You usually see this at the auto shows as well as the SEMA show. People tend to associate hot cars with hot babe or so call ?booth babe?. Usually many attendee that attend there shows are males. They tend to be drawn to the cars and mostly the booth babes.

These "booth babes" can certainly be trained to sell or move your product. They should be educated on the product they are trying to promote. If you hire a "booth babe" (with due respect I certainly do not like the term "booth babe" so for this article I will refer to them as booth models) and wish to use them correctly have then stand by your product, may it be a beautiful sports cars. Your product line is rims; well spend the time to educate your booth model about the product.

A model standing by your product will not sell that product; it will how ever get a great deal of attention to the model. Are you selling models or are your selling rims? Educate your booth model and your potential buyer may just turn into sales.

So, Let get back to the question on hand, does sex sell at trade show, overall, yes but it should be done with class and savvy which will enhance your sales and profit. Here is to your success

Embroidered Polos: Help Your Customers Remember You Twice

2008-08-10T02:24:00.001+07:00

By Epolos Articles

Many customers associate a company with a brand or logo. Embroidered polos help your customer to make this association, branding them two levels deep. What does this mean?

How Embroidered Polos Can Make a Customer for Life

Company Name: Usually, the first association a customer makes with a company is via its name and/or the name of the company representative they interact with. This is the foundational building block that can lead to a life-long association.

When a company first starts, in the vast majority of cases, there is no company clothing or corporate apparel that is identifiable. In fact, they, may not have gotten so far as having a logo designed. However, as soon as they reach a certain financial threshold, and start to leave the startup phase and mentality behind, one of the first things they do is hire a design firm to create a company logo.

This is where the second part of building on the relationship with a customer - company branding. This happens in the form of Embroidered Polos, custom company shirts and maybe even an entire line of corporate apparel and amenities.

Can you think of McDonald's without thinking of the "M" arch? Or, Starbucks without the sea nymph in the green and white circle? No, of course not. All of their company clothing has this logo. And, this is where the second level of branding comes in - choosing the right logo.

When consumers can recognize a company by its corporate apparel -- eg, think UPS and the brown khaki outfits of its drivers -- in addition to its name, that is a whole different level of success.

By Dexter

Trade shows are a great way to give visibility to your new product or services. Trade shows also gives one the opportunity to seek out new leads and sales. Trade show gives you the opportunity to keep in touch with the industry you are catering to. This can possible give you the competitive edge over your competitors. There are many reasons one would attend trade shows, but first let me give you some goals. The first is to showcase ones new product, second is to capture new clients and last but not least one wants to rekindle existing business relationships. Below is some additional goal one should shoot for to have successful trade show

1-Always do preshow marketing, let the attendee know exactly where in the convention hall you will be

2-Provide marketing material all with simluar therme

3- Your marketing plan should have in it some sort of way to keep track of you leads etc

4-Have a professional designed and built trade show booth. Use this opportunity to come up with a great theme for your marketing plan

5-Include in your plan of action some sort of give-away that relates to your product or your booth, make it useable and memorable. If you make tires or Rims for cars do not give away IPods, give-away something like a tire gauge etc

7-Order all show services before the documented discount deadlines. The discount is a great way to keep cost down. Watch for these deadlines, they are worth it

8-Ship your booth to advance warehouse if time permits. It cost more but the cost will equal out on the set up. Your stress level will appreciate it

9-Powerfull and well done graphic help your booth stand out from the rest. Get this professionally done. NO, Kinko's will not do. Have your exhibit house do it or a professional printing company that understand trade shows

10-Make your trade shows fun, more interesting people are at these shows form all over the world, take advantage of this and mingle

There are always different goals put forth by exhibitors make your realistic and do not expect and unrealistic turn out. One should look to attend more than one trade show a year inorder to keep your company name out in the market. Follow up on all leads immediately after show

Corporate Apparel: Double Your Bond with Your Customer

2008-08-05T20:38:00.001+07:00

By Epolos Articles

How many times have you been driving and spotted a McDonald's restaurant. Not because you saw the red and white sign that said "McDonald's," but you saw the yellow M, or as it is most commonly known, the "golden arches?" When you go inside to order, all of the employees are dressed in the corporate apparel. This is the power of a company brand. How can your company achieve the golden arches phenomenon? The buying public is accustomed to associating a company with a logo, a brand. But, it doesn't usually start out that way.

The Embroidered Polos and the Customer for Life

Know Thy Name First: The first step in building a bond with customers is to get your name out there. Customers have to first know you exist by name before they can start associating you with a brand. In fact, when many companies first start out, they have none of the branding factors in place, eg, corporate apparel, custom company shirts with Embroidered Polos, etc.

In the beginning stages, the corporate apparel of many companies may not even have a logo; just the company name and the name of the customer service representative. And this is fine. But, when companies expand, one of the first things they should do is create a company logo. In fact, this is a hallmark of large companies.

Creating a Brand to Create a Bond: One of the first signs that a company is leaving or has left the startup stage behind is that they start to think of themselves on a broader scale. This is the stage at which they may invest in getting a logo designed.

Can you think of McDonald's without thinking of the "M" arch? Or, Starbucks without the sea nymph in the green and white circle? No, of course not. All of their company clothing has this logo. And, this is where the second level of branding comes in - choosing the right logo.

When a company can look up and see its employees wearing its corporate apparel emblazoned with its newly created Embroidered Polos, it can feel that it has indeed arrived.

Tips on Using Promotional Candies to Advertise Your Business

2008-08-02T22:22:00.001+07:00

By Kay Petronelli

A lot of people like candy. Especially those people who sit in an office all day or somebody that drives a truck most probably like candies too. A great way to advertise your business is by using candy as a promotional item.

With promotional candies you will be able to offer something that people are going to be interested in as well as get people to hear about your business.

If you are interested in using promotional candies then read about how they work. What you do is get your company name or logo printed on a wrapper or the actual surface of the candy. Then each time somebody wants to eat the candy they will look at your name and logo before they eat it. This is an effective way to get your people thinking about your business on a daily basis.

One of the most popular kinds of promotional candies is mint. These are great for advertising a business because you put your name right on the wrapper. Most mints are individually wrapped so each time someone pops a mint they have to look at your name.

Mint tins are also very popular and are great for people's desk. Everybody loves to have a free candy so when they go to reach for a mint they will see your company name even before they get to the candy. A really prominent place to put these tins is at a reception area where many different people from other companies will be reaching in the tin for a candy too.

Mints are a very affordable way to advertise your business. If you get individually wrapped mints they will cost a bit more, but often times you are still not paying over $.10 a piece. You can also use other types of candies to help you promote your business. It has been proven that jellybeans and cinnamon candies are great. There are also candies you can give out seasonally. You may want to get candy hearts with your logo printed on them for Valentine's Day.

Chocolates are also a great way to advertise for you business. You can go for the cheaper option, which is to offer individually, wrapped chocolates with your company's name or logo on the wrappers. However, you can spend a little more money and actually have that information printed right onto the chocolate itself. This can get rather expensive depending on the design of the chocolate. However, this is an effective way to advertise because it always gets people's attention and gets them talking. It will typically cost about $2.00 a chocolate bar to do this. However, the more you buy the cheaper they will be.

If you are a business and are looking for a fresh way to advertise your business then you should consider promotional candies. Everyone likes to have something that they can munch on throughout the day, so why not attach your logo to it. There are a variety of types of candies that you can use and in several different ways.

Using "long tail" Keywords

2008-08-02T18:09:00.001+07:00

By Terry Stanfield

One of the problems that come with search engine marketing is having keywords or key phrases for your website that are very common and that many websites use. Since more and more companies are becoming aware of the need for search engine optimization and are starting to use search engine marketing any company that makes a product or sells a service similar to yours might end up using the exact same keywords or key phrases that you are using. After all, when you're coming up with keywords or key phrases you're trying to think of the most common words that you can so that you will pick words that a lot of other people associate with your product or service so it only makes sense that other companies would be using those words for their search engine marketing too.

But if you are using the same keywords and key phrases that a lot of other companies are using then your website might not rank as high on the search engine results pages because your keywords could be the same as a thousand other sites.

So how can you solve this problem? You can use long tail keywords to solve the problem of using the same keywords or key phrases as thousands of other web pages. Long tail keywords are clusters of keywords that are not common words individually but when put together they will point customers and clients to your site. By using long tail keywords you will rank higher in the search engine results pages because the words that you will be using will draw, in most cases more qualified customers who are interested in your product.

Using long tail keywords can be tricky and requires a good vocabulary. If you're not sure how to use long tail keywords and you are trying to promote a website that has a focus that is very popular and a lot of other websites have then you might want to consider hiring a company that specializes in search engine optimization and search engine marketing to figure out what long tail keywords would work best for your site. Driving traffic to your website can be tricky when there are millions of websites that are all competing with your website for traffic but using long tail keywords is one way that you can outsmart your competition.

If you are using long tail keywords in conjunction with an ad program like Google's Ad Sense then you save money on advertising because you will be using words that are less commonly and more focused and therefore less expensive but when you string those words together to make a key phrase that key phrase can be an effective search engine marketing tool that can drive customers to your website instead of to websites that are run by your competitors.

Search Engine Marketing: What to Look for in an SEO Consultant

2008-08-02T13:21:00.001+07:00

By Terry Stanfield

When you want to add some search engine optimized content to your website it's probably a good idea to hire a professional SEO consultant. A professional SEO consultant can help you decide what SEO services you need in order to overhaul your existing website to make it more search engine optimized and to implement some search engine marketing. A consultant can also tell you what percentage of SEO content you need to have on your site and what Meta tags to use.

If you have never used any search engine optimization on your site at all then you will definitely need to hire an experienced SEO consultant to make sure that your site gets a complete search engine optimization makeover. Many SEO consultants offer more SEO services than just content so if you already have a professional SEO writer you should ask that writer if he or she also does SEO consultations or provides other SEO services.

If you need to start looking for an SEO consultant here are some tips on selecting an SEO consultant. When you are considering an SEO consultant ask to see previous examples of any SEO content that person has written but also ask to see websites that the person has written for. After all, the point of hiring someone to provide SEO services is to get your website noticed isn't it? So you need to see some of the websites that the SEO consultant has worked on in order to know for sure that the SEO consultant can deliver high quality SEO services.

A good way to tell if a web site that the SEO consultant has worked on is really doing well in search engine rankings and drawing traffic is to look on the Alexa website. You can enter the name of the website or the website address and see the search engine ranking for that particular website over a period of months, weeks and days. If that site is doing well then the SEO consultant probably is experienced enough to provide quality SEO services but if the site is ranked very low or doesn't get a lot of hits then you might want to look for another SEO consultant.

Another way that you can tell if the SEO consultant that you're considering hiring is of high quality is by what his or her rates are. Someone who has high rates but a poor portfolio probably hasn't been working as an SEO consultant for very long and might not have the skills that you need to increase your web site traffic. If the consultant's rates are very low then he or she might be trying to build up a portfolio of work which shows inexperience. You should always be willing to pay a fair rate for SEO services just like you would be for any other professional services. Don't expect to get great SEO services for next to nothing. This is your business and your business is important so it's worth investing the money in a highly qualified SEO consultant.

Using a Website to Market Your Craft Business

2008-07-31T15:32:00.001+07:00

By Ethan O. Tanner

There are several different ways to advertise your business on the Internet. Placing banner ads, organizing an email marketing campaign and tactfully bringing up your business on industry related forums and message boards are just some of the common options for Internet marketing.

One of the most effective Internet marketing strategies involves making and advertising using a website to promote your business. You can use your site in a number of ways. Some of these techniques include providing more information about your business and the products or services you offer, allowing potential customers know how to contact you and even selling your products and services via the website.

One outstanding advantage to using a website to market your business on the Internet is that you can place descriptions and photos of the products or services your business offers. This is significant because many consumers use the Internet when searching for products and services. This gives your business an advantage over the competition by having an online presence because consumers are much more likely to select your products or services over the products and services offered by your competitors who do not promote online.

A profitable advantage to marketing your business on a website is you can use the internet site to not only market but also sell your products immediately. Once more this can give you an edge over the direct competition. Consumers who use the Internet to research products and services are frequently very eager to make their purchases and they would be more prone to select a retailer or service providers who offer the opportunity to purchase products or services online over a retailer or service provider who just allows for purchase in a store or thru over the phone.

Still another advantage to using a website to market your business is the ability to reach a large, worldwide audience. The Internet essentially knows no boundaries and advertising on a website means the business owner can reach competitors around the world instead of being limited to their general location. Advertising via other medium such as television, radio and the print media is somewhat limited and may only reach potential customers in a relatively small geographic area.

Another benefit to using a website to market your business is the Internet is available 24 hours a day around the world. This essentially offers you a storefront which is open 24 hours a day. While your competitors may be limited to their regular business hours, your website will enable you to reach your customers at any hour of the day. This is especially important for reaching potential customers in other time zones and for reach customers in your own area who are simply too busy to shop for products or services like the ones you offer during regular business hours. Many potential customers work long hours and appreciate the ability to research and shop online after hours.

One other strategy to using a website to market your business is you can actually bring forth a profit from your website in additional ways than through sales to customers. You can also use your website to yield income by selling advertising space to other business owners who are marketing their own products and services on the Internet.

Care should be taken when publicizing on your website. First of all you should not sell advertising space to direct competitors. The reason for this is because this may cause you to lose expected business if potential customers choose to purchase product or services from competitors who advertise on your website. An ideal advertiser is one who offers products and services which do not immediately compete with your own products or services but would be of interest to your potential customers. You should also be careful not to place too many advertisements on your website. This is important because too many advertisements may take away from your business and may cause you to lose potential customers. Follow these suggestions and your sales could increase by using a website to promote your business.

Differences between Hanging Displays and Pop-Up Display Stands

2008-07-31T04:11:00.001+07:00

By Amy Nutt

The type of display you use for your trade show booth is something that is going to make a difference in how you do business. The idea is to stand out and be unique amongst the rest, so you must figure out which kind of display is going to be the one to fit you best. Two of the displays you may find that you have to choose from are hanging displays and pop-up displays. Each may look the same as each other, but the truth is that they are very different. It is important that you know those differences so that you can make an informed decision regarding which you should use.

Hanging displays

Hanging displays are rather true to their name. They actually hang over top of your trade show booth. They also make for a great attention grabber because they can be seen from far distances. You don't have to have one of those booths that aren't seen until the individual is standing right upon it. They can see it from across the way and make a beeline for your booth.

The downfall is that these work best at trade shows that are conducted within an arena or a convention center. That way the trade show booth owner has a ceiling to hang the display from. If the show is outside, then there is nothing to hang it from unless you build an incredibly tall pole that allows you to hang the display. It is then that you're putting your display up against such elements as wind and rain. You would also have to transport the pole and building such a contraption could prove to be expensive because you would have to somehow make it compact for transport. That might be why you never see hanging displays at outside trade shows.

Pop-up displays

Pop-up displays are different from hanging displays in that they don't hang. They come in a number of sizes and materials. Display assembly is quite easy because the frame is built to simply pop-up. An example of a unique pop-up is one that is 20 feet long and 8 feet high. It sits on the ground and actually has a wave shape to it. This makes it unique compared to pop-ups that may be one simple curve and sits upon a tabletop. However, tabletop pop-up displays are also great to showcase items you may have. You can also place lighting above the pop-up to enhance your display. Any type of lighting is going to make a difference and pop-up displays allow for that.

Another great thing about pop-up displays is the fact that they can be used both indoors and outdoors. That way you don't have to fret if your next trade show is going to be outside. You can still use your pop-up display to bring attention to your booth.

Maximizing your presence

You can maximize your trade show displays by using one or both of these display types. If you're having an indoor trade show, you can use your hanging display and your pop-up display. If you find you're going to be outside, then you can just use your pop-up display. Both are very effective in bringing a crowd to your booth and you'll find that you'll earn a return on your investment because of the ability of these tools to attract a crowd to your booth. Just remember that you have to spend money to make money and that purchasing the right trade show displays is one of those instances. Just make sure you look around and see how much more business you are achieving against those who do not employ any type of display.

Step by Step on How to Make an Advertising Plan

2008-07-31T01:50:00.001+07:00

By Zindy Maseko

When planning advertising, usually there are lots of chances for internships in the production department. If there is any success in finding an internship, bring it to the notice of the internship director; most probably her reference can be of some advantage. If these attempts don't work, volunteer to work for free at any local fair, functions and events. Display your creativity to the fullest. This can catch the attention of someone important sometime who can give you that jump-start.

For people who don't opt for regular college, they can always find lots of material related to advertising on the Internet. Other than studying the theory work, try to observe the work of famous personalities in the industry. Get some ideas, mix it with some creativity and create some original work and approach the local radio station or television channel. Since there are number of shows running there will be some kind of a vacancy.

Successful Advertising Plan

You should first make sure that you create an outline of your plan, then after creating the outline of the picture, pick lines that will actually attract the customer. The message shouldn't be long enough to bore the customer. Some advertisers are under the illusion that more the matter written, the better the message delivered. Usually they fear that they don't miss out any information. This does nothing but decreases the effectiveness of the ad and customer is left unsatisfied.

The next point is whether the advertiser wants quick results or long lasting results. If quick result is desired, then a time limit should be levied. Like in case of seasonal sales, the customer hurries to get advantage before the offer is over. So quick results are expected in this case. But the disadvantage with advertisement with time limit is that the customer are bound to forget about the product or the company within a short period and it doesn't creates a deep impact on the minds of the customer.

If targeting for a higher impact, newsletter is the best bet. But if the newsletters are sent to the real potential customers, then this approach should be adopted for message delivery. It should only be opted be after thorough analysis, no matter what the budget is. Another important point is to always hire a professional advertiser or an ad writer because not hiring one will sometimes be more expensive and results in more losses.

How to write good advertising content?

Chucking is technique that can be used when writing good content. Chucking is writing small stories with conclusion at the end. They can either have or not have connection between themselves. Its better if they aren't connected, because it won't require the reader to go back to a previous chunk in order to understand the present chunk he is reading. This works quite well when there are pictures in the advertisement and the chunk illustrates the picture. The two-dimensional picture is speechless unless some well-chosen words talks about it and motivates the customers. Obviously, while chucking, sub-headings can be used to let out critical information. Another point to be considered is the product or company about which the content is based on. Suppose if the brochure is related to a corporate, the style of writing should be formal.

You should be writing information about contacts so as to buy the product; detailed forms are big turn-off. Contact information, postal address and website URL should be clearly specified. Also include whether the business accepts cash, check or credit card. Another thing to be taken care of is the contact information, which is usually written on the forms, which have to be mailed. It is better to write them on the advertisement also so that the customers can save it for future reference.

Maximizing Advertising Results

2008-07-30T22:22:00.001+07:00

By Dennis Gartland II

Is is possible to guarantee results form advertising? If you approach advertising ans a science instead of an art results are fairly predictable.

The first tangible Return from an Advertiser?s money, when invested in Space, Is an Inquiry about their product That Inquiry may be verbal to a Clerk over the counter, or-it may be by Mail, in a written,stamped, and posted letter.

Though it is just an inquiry, you are starting to see a return on your investment. This is the first proof your advertising is working.

Now it may take twice or three times as much Conviction in Copy to make a Consumer write an Inquiry for goods, and post it, as it would have taken to make that same Consumer inquire verbally for the goods advertised, when passing a store that should sell them.

When she talks to a retailer it there are 2 to 3 times as many chances of substitution. The salesperson may try to sell the customer a higher commission item or the one that is in stock. Whereas if the customer orders online or by phone there is less of a chance of substitution.

The ad which directs consumers to a retail store should have as much conviction in it's copy as a successful mail order advertisement. Otherwise the consumer will be affected by lower price and something better sales tactics.

If the ad fails to convince the consumers with a "Reason why" and conviction it could direct him to a retail store where they are switched to a competing brand, the the retailer is overstocked in, or that the salesman prefers. In which case we would be helping our competitors bottom line. Half the money spent to Keep the brand on peoples minds results in the substitution of non advertised goods for the those advertised through General advertising.

The advertisement must therefore give him better ?Reason-why? he should buy our goods than he is likely to hear from the retail Salesman for the competing goods that Salesman may want to substitute. And, it must give him these ?reason-why? in such lucid thought-form that he can understand without effort, so impressively that he will believe our reasoning Claims. It must accomplish this in spite of his natural distrust of all Advertisement statements.

This is why not more than a fourth of those who, out of mere curiosity, buy the first package, through "General Publicity," ever buy the second or third consecutive package of the same article. Because they do not buy on Conviction In the Meantime, it usually takes about all the profit in the first purchase of any "Generally Advertised" article to pay the cost of introducing it to the Consumer's notice, through Advertising.

In contrast to branding "Reason-Why Advertising" or Salesmanship-on-Paper, results are insured and far more predictable. Consumers need only be convinced one time, through "Reason why advertising" or "Salesmanship- on-paper," the product or service is best for them and their use.

With reason why advertising they begin using the article with an advance knowledge of, and belief in, its good points, his appreciation becomes permanent if the goods merit it. He therefore makes a second, third, and further consecutive purchases of the article as a result of having once read a single convincing "Reason-Why" advertisement about it.

He therefore makes a second, third, and further consecutive purchases of the article as a result of having once read a single convincing ?Reason-Why? advertisement about it. This is where large and cumulative profits must come to the General Advertiser-on the second, third and continued purchases by Readers of the first advertisement that reached their Convictions.

Any Advertiser who uses mere "General Publicity" when he might have all that and, in addition, a positive Selling force combined with it is losing 50 percent to 80 per cent of the results he might have had from the same identical appropriation.

Researchers, students, teachers, writers, marketeers and anyone else who wishes to find specific information will have easier access to comprehensive information through such means.

A trustworthy, dependable and complete resource to provide the total range of human knowledge in a single information base is undoubtedly the best reference for anything for people in different fields and specialised areas. Regardless of the purpose, creating a place to find everything at your fingertips is the trendy new way to provide convenience.

Knowledge is what keeps us humans striving to learn more and more. The extra bits and pieces of information we can read, watch, listen and absorb in to our minds takes us a long way in life.

What Are the Different Types of Banner Stands on the Market?

2008-07-30T03:21:00.000+07:00

By Amy Nutt

When you've been to a trade show, have you seen booths that had no type of trade show displays available? These types of booths sometimes consist of tables underneath some kind of shelter, but they don?t have anything pointing out who they are. Have you stopped at these booths? Maybe you passed that booth up for the one that had actual displays such as banners. Those tend to be the trade show booths that are taken more seriously because it is obvious that they have put in some serious effort to make sure they draw in customers. With that said, let?s take a look at the different types of banner stands that you may find being used at a trade show booth. You may wonder how many types could there be. A banner is just a banner, right? Actually, banners are so much more. They can do so much more for your business.

The different types of trade show banner stands you will find are:

- Roll up banner stands: These are banner stands that have everything you need. Of course, you have the stand and the banner simply rolls up or down. When you roll it down, you attach it at the bottom and your banner display is finished. They are all different heights and different widths. They can sit on the ground or they can be so short they sit on a tabletop.

There are also banners stands called cassette banner stands. You can change your banner graphics quickly by having them inside of ?cassettes? that can be easily interchanged when you need to. This allows you to do things such as change your banner graphic every hour to highlight a different item. They are a bit heavier than most banner stands, but they can expand your marketing opportunity.

- L banner stand: This is a banner stand that is lightweight and easy to transport. They usually come with a carrying bag. It clips the banner at the top and at the bottom in order to keep it completely flat. These are also available in a number of sizes so that you can have the right size banner to compliment your trade show booth.

- X banner stand: This type of banner stand has three legs and a backing and allows for the banner to be attached at all four corners. The stand is lightweight and sets up rather quickly. They do come with carrying bags most of the time for easy transport. There is a bit more involved with it than the L banner stand, but it definitely takes care of your banner.

- Table stands: These are the stands that you're going to place upon your table tops to display your small tabletop banners. You can get these tabletop banner stands as roll up banner stands, L banner stands, and X banner stands. It is up to you which one you feel is going to benefit your trade show booth the most.

- Pole up tension banner stands: This is a collapsible pole that does not take long to put up and is quite lightweight. You have the option of using extra tall pole up tension banner stands in order to get attention from long distances.

These are some of the common banner stands you may see. You may also see banner stands such as motorized banner stands and banner stands that are especially made for the outdoors. What is great about the different types of banner stands is that there is always one that fits within your budget or one that is going to help you achieve your goals with your trade show booth.

How to Determine If You're Ready to Hire a Copywriter

2008-07-30T01:08:00.001+07:00

By Ryan M. Healy

Hiring a copywriter is not for everybody.

To see if you're ready, answer these questions and read the explanations that follow.

Question #1: Have you gotten sales?

The copywriter's job is to improve response to an offer.

If your offer has failed to produce results of any kind, then the copywriter has nothing to improve. Zero times any other number still equals zero.

Claude Hopkins, one of the earliest fathers of modern advertising, says this in his book Scientific Advertising: "The reason for most of the non-successes in advertising is trying to sell people what they do not want." p. 225

Do not even think of hiring a copywriter unless you are confident the market wants what you're offering. A good way to do this is use low-cost and no-cost methods to promote your product or service. Then measure the response.

If people buy, then it may be time to hire a copywriter to help you multiply the results.

Question #2: Do you have money to risk?

The reason the best copywriters command big fees is because they will often produce more than enough profit to cover their fees.

Still, no copywriter in history has batted a thousand. There will always be an occasional "dud" among dozens of winning promotions.

Hiring a copywriter is like any other investment. You hope to get your money back -- with an increase in profits -- as quickly as possible. And you could get 1,000% ROI or more.

But there is a chance that your investment won't pay off like you expect. Which is why you shouldn't hire a copywriter unless you have some money to risk. You will have to decide whether the risk is worth it.

Question #3: Are you committed to split-testing?

There is only one way to guarantee the success of any ad, sales letter, or promotion. That is to test.

The whole purpose of testing is to determine what works best in the real world. For instance, you might test two different guarantees. One converts 2% of all prospects into customers. But the other one converts 4%, twice as much.

If you had relied on your preferences, you might have chosen the losing version, thereby sacrificing half of all the profits you could have earned.

Testing your sales copy is important for two reasons. First, it proves -- scientifically -- what produces the greatest number of sales. And, second, in situations where your preference is different from your copywriter's, testing provides a way to find the correct answer.

So before you ever hire a copywriter, you should be committed to split-testing. This will tell you how well your copywriter is doing, as well as what works and what doesn't.

Did you pass the "test?" If so, congratulations. Not only do you have an uncommon understanding about the nature of copywriting, you would probably do well to hire a copywriter.

Airplane Banner Towing

Advertising is obviously an important part of promoting a company or product. Billions of dollars are spend annually on advertising and, with research so prevalent, we can be sure that it is money well planned. Many ads include a glut of information, at times requiring the reader to scan the ad to see who made it. Is that much information always necessary to get results?

Airplane banner or billboard ads have several advantages. Since the ad is flown over a large congregation of people, it must be concise. A banner ad must convey just enough information to get people interested. A simple ad like this costs less and can be reused in other locations or in the same location at a later time.

Banner ads have the advantage of being quick to produce. Since they are, at most, one sentence, the time needed to make the idea fly is greatly reduced. Typos are rare and no coupons much be managed.

Unlike a "traditional" ad, banner ads convey only enough information to get the customer interested. When the customer inquires further, then further facts, figures and benefits can be conveyed. But the primary goal with airplane advertising is to get them interested.

Banner ads have one drawback, namely, their success pivots on a few words. These words must convey the message desired in a way that will be remembered by the audience once they are home. It is more difficult to convey the message in a few words than to ramble on in a longer ad. Radio and TV ads try to name their product 5 to 7 times in a minute or less. Banner ads don't have this luxury. It may be said several times as the plane flies back and forth, but it is the same message each time.

In contrast, traditional ads provide facts, figures, and a good deal of information in order to coerce the customer to a particular business. They ideally provide information for how to reach the advertiser - address, phone number, email, even a contact person and phone number. They require you to produce a creative ad that will appeal to many people and be remembered amid the barrage of other ads. And, though often expensive, there is no guarantee they will even be read.

There is something about a banner flying behind a plane that demands attention. People hear the hum of the engine and look up. During the 17 seconds the banner is visible, they may read the message several times. If it returned, it will probably cause them to recall the message. By the time they get home, the sight of a plane will probably bring the message to mind once again. This recall is virtually free advertising. Yes, the information in a printed ad is often needed. In such a case, the banner ad can be used in conjunction with a printed ad, multiplying its effectiveness.

If cost effectiveness is important to a company, consider the proven effectiveness of banner ads. Think of the customers rehashing your message over and over in their minds long after the banner is gone.
