Advertising Balloons Take Marketing to a New Level
FYI! If you want someone to volunteer for something don’t ask them to volunteer. When I see “we need volunteers” in an email subject line or on the bulletin board I immediately delete it. If t instead if they had asked for mentor or someone to coach the company team I would have read it eagerly. The word volunteer like the word FREE has been over used and mis-used so much we just delete it automatically. Just ask people specifically for the help you need. You’ll have all the volunteers you can handle.
Regardless of what business you’re in, it’s safe to assume there are times when you want to catch someone’s attention. Perhaps you want to drive more traffic to your retail store. Maybe you want your booth to stand out at a street fair. Perhaps you want your conference attendees to feel special and appreciated. Whether you’re a retailer or an event planner, you should know that advertising balloons can take marketing to a whole new level. Advertising inflatables can take many forms. Custom balloons with your company name and logo can be used outdoors as an attention-grabbing display or indoors for decoration and as a giveaway to kids. Helium advertising blimps range in size from seven feet long to thirty feet long. Advertising balloon companies generally keep generic advertising blimps in stock (such as those that say “Grand Opening” or “Sale”), and are also able to print virtually any message on customized blimps in order to reach your audience. If you are holding an outdoor event, you may want to consider advertising inflatables designed like characters. For example, if your company is sponsoring a local baseball game, you may choose an advertising inflatable that looks like a baseball. In the same vein, patriotic advertising balloons - such as the Statue of Liberty, Uncle Sam, or the American Bald Eagle - are terrific traffic builders and are perfect for the Fourth of July and other patriotic holidays. If you’re a retailer who needs to build business during February, giant cold-air advertising balloon in the shape of heart is sure to be a traffic magnet. If you want to send a more personal message to the one you love, you can also rent or buy heart-shaped inflatables with a personalized message banner. Air dancers, in particular, are a cost-effective means of bringing drive-by traffic into your retail store. Advertising balloons represent a new way to get your message across to your customers or your stakeholders. The cost of advertising blimps and other advertising inflatables is so low that it fits into the advertising budget of virtually any small- or medium-sized business. So, whether you’d like to communicate your message high in the sky, in the midst of a street fair, or on a playing field, advertising balloons can get the job done. FYI! Your company’s history is important to your prospects and customers. Whenever possible and wherever you can, tell the story. The fact that you’ve survived and are successful is a story in and of itself. If you tell the story your customers and prospects will add it to the positive side of their decision tree - people want to do business with people they know about. We’ve interviewed a hundred successful business owners. There’s a link to their stories in the nav bar on the left.
