With school days just around the corner, students are gearing up with their back-to-school supplies. With any academic setting comes the use of textbooks and novels, and thus the need for bookmarks.

Bookmarks are perhaps one of the most underused tools in the marketing tool belt. Their compact and portable size make them the perfect token to distribute. And because readers of all ages can use them, it allows a company to target as small or wide a demographic as possible. 

We currently offer bookmarks in 2″ x 8″ and 1.5″ x 7″ sizes on a variety of stock options.

Learning Centers

Learning Centers are perfect for bookmark marketing. Not only can a bookmark be used as a practical placeholder for their books, but its canvas can host informative educational information. Reach elementary school children by offering a list of commonly misspelled words, introductory Spanish vocabulary, mini multiplication tables, or converting one of the bookmark’s edges into a ruler. By adding an educational twist to your advertising materials, your recipient is more likely to hold onto the token.

Extracurricular Programs

Almost every student has some form of extracurricular activity they participate in—from drama classes to Jiu-Jitsu. Bookmarks are a great way to promote your brand. Use bookmarks to draw potential customers in with a discount on a class package or a first free class.

Run a cooking class for chefs-in-the-making? Bookmarks are perfect for featuring a table of measurements, an easy recipe for students to try at home, or photos of current students with their culinary creations. Be sure to add links to your website and registration links.

Don’t be afraid to cross promote with other companies either. For example, if you head up a baseball team, use your bookmarks to highlight some of the top athletic shops for cleats, baseball bats, and other sports gear in your area.

Colleges and Universities

With fall comes the beginning waves of acceptance letters. Colleges and universities can offer bookmarks into their acceptance packages with information on the required summer reading, upcoming orientation dates, and important essentials for dorm living.

Bookmarks are more than a placeholder for reading materials; they’re a potential treasure trove for your business information.

For some, the idea of going to a dentist appointment can be nerve-racking. According to a study by colgate.com, it has been estimated that between 9%-15% of Americans avoid going to the dentist due to fear and anxiety. To put that into perspective, that’s about 30-40 million people.

With this to contend with, it is critical that dentists not only have excellent bedside manner but that they are successful in their marketing strategies.

Below are our top 7 ways to effectively promote your dental practice with print marketing.

Business Cards

Business Cards are the foundation of every successful business. At Primo Print, we offer a diverse array of printing options and high-quality paper stock. Our superior paper stock comes in 14PT, 16PT, 18PT, 22PT, and 32PT, and it can be styled with Painted Edges, Inline Foil, Plastic Cards, Linen, Spot UV, Full UV, and more. Primo Print business cards are also available in  Velvet Laminated, Linen, Oval, Slim Cards, and Square Cards, featuring rounded or square corners.

Make sure to tailor your graphic design to your clientele base. Do you have a practice in an upscale metropolis? Make sure that your business card comes across classy and sophisticated. Or, do you work mainly in pediatric dentistry? Use artwork that comes across as cheerful, perhaps with animated characters or brighter colors.

Every Door Direct Mail®

In a 2015 USPS® Household Study, researchers found that 81% of recipients read or scan their mail daily. Every Door Direct Mail®, or EDDM®, is a marketing channel in which companies send postcards out to a targeted zip code or area. EDDM® is also a perfect medium to advertise business details and incorporate coupons for dental products or services. Choose from Glossy UV Coated, Matte, or Spot UV Gloss in 11 standard postcard dimensions, printed in stunning full color, single or double-sided.

Stickers/Roll Labels

Stickers are a great branding tool, especially for young children as a reward for good behavior during their visit. We offer crack-n-peel stickers with a Glossy UV Coating or with Inline Foil, and Short Run Crack-N-Peel stickers with no additional coating. Custom shaped roll labels like those shown in the image below are sure to put a smile on your young patient’s face. 

Brochures

Brochures are ideal handouts and sales pieces, giving you a trifold canvas to easily and effectively share your practice’s information along with your various services. We can give your marketing materials the pizzazz they deserve with our Gloss, UV Coating, Satin Coating, or Uncoated Paper finishes. We offer 70LB, 80LB, and 100LB paper stock.

Magnets

Leave your clients with a unique yet practical marketing reminder. Post it on your refrigerator, inside your locker, or on any metal surface. Our indoor use magnets are printed in full color (CMYK) single (4/0) 17PT UV coated card stock and are available in a variety of shapes and dimensions. It’s easy to make a statement with printing magnets for your business.

Bookmarks

Bookmarks are more than just a practical placeholder; they’re a potentially informative canvas. On one side, you can advertise your practice. On the other, the opportunities are endless. If you’re targeting children, list fun facts about your state, feature the top five most commonly misspelled words, or list three riddles for them to decode. For an adult client base, list the dentist’s favorite dental hygiene products with the most cost-effective prices in town, a list of the staff’s favorite books, or a discount for their next visit. Choose from our high-quality 14PT or 16PT stock and a variety of dimensions and finishes, including Matte, Glossy UV Coating, Spot UV, or Uncoated Card Stock.

Hang Tags

Perhaps one of the more creative ways of marketing, hang tags are the perfect size for you to place your logo along with key contact information. They’re great for complimentary tooth brushes and floss one generally receives at the end of an appointment. We offer a diverse selection of sizing and printing options, including Matte, Full UV, Spot UV, Silk, and Inline Foil, with the option of printing on 16PT or 18PT premium card stock.

Or maybe you’ll receive 50% off your first purchase when you sign up for a clothing store’s credit card program. Perhaps a brewery is offering free stickers at an outdoor beer festival.

Event marketing strategies are designed to leave a lasting brand-centered impression by grabbing the potential customer’s attention. It provides value to attendees beyond surface information If properly executed, it will give each of them a resonating experience.

In order to pull off a successful campaign, it’s critical to identify the target audience and create an experience that’s sure to remain in attendees’ minds. Through interacting with both current customers and prospective buyers, a brand can build a favorable impression and long-lasting relationships.

You’ve finalized your beautiful design for your thank you cards. What’s next? What you write in your cards can be just as impactful as the cards themselves. Here are our top three suggestions for showing your customers your appreciation.

Successful Thank You Note Components

• Make sure to thank the customer sincerely. Some people opt not to write thank you notes because they are under the impression it has to be lengthy. Simply recognize that this customer visited your store or website and purchased an item, and personally thank them for their patronage.
• Steer clear of turning your thank you letter into a sales pitch. Thank you notes are viewed as passive sales tools to build customer relationships; don’t let it become a promotional ad. While you can highlight upcoming events you’ll hope he or she will attend, avoid anything directly pointing to purchasing again.
• Remind your customers that you are easily accessible to them. At the end of the thank you note, inform your customers that you are available for any questions.

Writing personalized thank you notes is a sure way to stand out among your competition and show gratitude to your customer base. If you don’t have your thank you cards printed yet, we offer a variety of sizes and stocks as well as professional custom design services. For more information, visit click here.
