If you run a convenience store, or have any type of business where you sell coffee or other drinks, try this:
Get some drink cups that can be used in a car, some of those plastic cups with handles and a lid, and have your business name and address or phone number printed on them. Sell them and give the first coffee or drink refill free. Then offer free refills or discounted refills everytime someone comes back in with the cup. That will give you repeat customers who more than likely will buy other things, and they will develop a habit of visiting your store, so you will hopefully have more loyal customers.

6 Ways you can use advertising promotionals to help your business
Advertising Promotionals are any items that you imprint with your business name and other identifying information. You can use these to help people become aware of your business and to keep customers you already have. These are ways you can use these to help your business:
1. Put small items such as magnets or keyrings in bills or other mailings to existing customers or clients.
2. Give them as thank you gifts for purchases or past purchases.
3. Give them away at fairs, local events,
4. Hold fundraisers, collect orders for products with your name on them, then order the products, donate a portion of the proceeds to your favorite non-profit and keep the rest.
5. Put your name on items, and resell them in your store or on your website.
6. If you run any kind of business that sells coffee or other drinks, sell cups with your name on them, and let your customers have free refills when they bring back their cup.

Marketing With Promotional Imprinted Products
I will be putting posts up on a regular (hopefully) basis on ways to use imprinted products to help your small business grow. These ideas are mainly for small to medium sized retail and direct mail businesses, but even internet marketers could use them. The idea is to brand your business like big companies do. You can do this one of several ways, and we will be exploring these ways in future posts.
Until then, here's to your success
