Best Foot Forward Advertising is a full-service Ad Specialty distributor, also known as Promotional Products. Whichever term you prefer, it signifies marketing success for your corporate image. The role of a distributor is to represent industry manufacturers and assist you in selecting marketing items that best serve your promotional needs, whether for immediate events like grand openings and new product launches or for long-term strategies such as branding, client rewards, and employee recognition. It's essential to collaborate with a quality distributor who can help you with ALL PRODUCTS, not just a few catalogs with limited items. While anyone can sell you a pen or magnet, even your local printer, if you require unique items like a custom imprinted hockey puck or woven lanyard for political campaigns, trust your marketing to the best—a full-service, ASI recognized distributor.
Public service is the ultimate Catch 22. You work hard to secure the position that will allow you to serve and hope that you can serve the way you intended. While we can't guarantee you smooth sailing in office, we can ensure that your political image is best presented for everyone to see during your political campaigns. Some ideas include: campaign yard signs, banners, campaign badges, pens and pencils, themed items (like a 5-star badge for Sheriff or a light bulb for new ideas), magnetic auto door signs, hand fans and foam fingers, as well as door hangers and plastic bags.
Those who love playing sports understand the importance of their gear and often have superstitions about their choices. Utilizing Best Foot Forward Advertising not only gives access to recognized brand names but also helps enhance your corporate image. Golfers will appreciate your presentation of custom imprinted Nike or Titleist golf balls in the latest designs.
Have a baseball team tournament on the horizon? Let us supply your tournament with the trusted name of Rawlings. What Bass fishing tournament would be complete without a custom imprinted Rapala lure? Sell them as souvenirs or gift them as part of the registration fee. By making the ball or lure an add-on to the cost of the event, you can recover some of your costs with the profit. This also serves as a great reminder for participants to book your next tournament, whether it's for sports or even political campaigns!
"This is like Christmas!" This phrase is often used when we receive an unexpected gift. We all appreciate receiving something; sometimes it signifies recognition for an achievement, and other times it serves as a thank you. The use of products in this context is often referred to as premiums and incentives, which elevate the corporate image beyond standard ad specialties. On the "ABOUT" page, it was noted that there are various levels of pens, and a budget version may not always be suitable. This is one of those instances. Consider your client when making your selection. If they are a cigar aficionado, perhaps a custom engraved humidor would be fitting. If they enjoy sailing, consider giving them a nautical-themed weather set for their desk. A unique gift tailored to the client demonstrates that you understand their specific interests and that you took the time to learn about them. Showing this personal interest lets them know that you will take the same level of care in your B2B relationship, which can be especially important in the context of political campaigns.
The promotional products industry is founded on the idea that offering advertising giveaways is one of the most effective forms of advertising. Everyone appreciates a thoughtful gift, and when that gift is branded with your corporate image, it becomes meaningful for both the giver and the receiver. However, is it necessary to give items away for free? Consider how frequently you encounter retail products that display a brand name. The Abercrombie and Fitch line exemplifies this tactic, as they place their name on products and sell them at a profit. You can also look at your favorite tourist destination to find a variety of branded items for sale—cups, hats, t-shirts, and foamies are all part of their retail strategy. This approach is something we've commonly implemented for clients and something you might want to explore as well.
For instance, our firm created a cuff link set and a lapel pin for a college bookstore, both designed for retail sale. A brewery's gift shop ordered copper mugs and folding camp chairs, while we provided photo cases to a photographer as an additional item for photo packages. Although these items could have been included with the photo session, they instead became a source of extra revenue. What about fundraising events? High school sports teams often use decals, license plates, wearables, and more to raise funds. Looking for a way to boost traffic to your store? Partner with a charity to sell a unique item that represents the charity while also featuring your corporate image. By selling this item and donating some or all of the profits to the charity, you can increase foot traffic to your store and enhance your public image.
Thinking outside the box can be profitable in numerous ways, including during political campaigns where unique merchandise can make a significant impact.
Regardless of the target audience, you always want your corporate image to stand out, especially in competitive environments like political campaigns. Whether you are trying to recruit new employees or broaden your client base, your visual image to new prospects is a cornerstone of how they approach the initial contact. The tried and true adage that "You only get one chance to make a good first impression" rings especially true when it comes to corporate image.
Your presence at corporate trade shows or job fairs is where you can make that positive first impression. Backdrops, table covers, and pop-up banners, all emblazoned with your corporate logo or product images, can set the positive mood before the first word is ever spoken.
Of course, the intent is to draw them to your table, but what happens when you get them? Wow them with custom pocket portfolios or takeaway items like magnetic business cards or pens—something that will keep you top of mind when they are sorting through the myriad of information they have just assembled. And don't forget the trade show bags; attendees will appreciate having something to carry that information, which also becomes a mobile billboard for your booth.
Consider the demographics, as millennials may grab tech first (like earbuds or power banks), while those in the 35-45 age range might gravitate toward desk and home items.
