Increase Early Bird Ticket Sales With A Promotional Product

by Kirby Hasseman

  So you are hosting an event, what is a sure fire ways get people to register early? Early bird registrations help in planning and saving money in the long run because of more accurate ordering of supplies, meals, etc.  A knowledge of the numbers expected also decreases stress in planning for rooms, layouts and signage. Not having early bird registration makes you essentially work in the dark, and not knowing how many will be coming makes it impossible to plan accordingly. Obviously, the more individuals you can get to sign up ahead of the event, the simpler your day will be! But how?  One of the best ways to do this is by offering a product as an incentive to register early for an event. This will increase your event’s registrations because of the perceived increase in value with the combination of the gift and the product.  People will perceive that they will lose a bonus gift if they register later. This is an amazing motivator, and will ensure people take the time to sign up promptly. Nervous about making the decision of what promotional product will be best?  Work with your promotional product consultant in order to choose your perfect item, and set the registration deadline so you have enough time to order the exact quantity and have the product on hand at check-in. This will allow you to please your clients that have taken the initiative to register for the gift.     Check out some of these products to get an idea of what might be best for your event…. Cube Shape Portable Speakers, Full Color Digital: This speaker allows your guests to enjoy their favorite music wherever they want. The speaker comes with a full color digital imprint on all sides that allows the listener to remember who gave them this great gift!   Mood Smart Wallet with Kick Stand: We have all been there – trying to watch something on our phone while doing something else, propping it against anything while trying to get the perfect angle on the screen. Now you can provide your early signers with the answer to this common problem! Put your logo on the kick stand itself. Let your company lend a hand! The kick stand comes in Green/Yellow, Orange/Yellow, Blue/White and Purple/Pink. So, everyone can get the color they want.  Stone Paper Notebook: Everyone needs to jot down information to remember later. Provide them what they need with this great notebook that comes with your personalized logo. Help your customers to remember things in a moment. Let this gift remind them of you!  20 oz. Smushy Flexible Water Bottle: Who wouldn’t love this practical reusable water bottle? It can be easily stored because of its bendable plastic that allows it to fold and smush to fit anywhere.

Episode 99 of Delivering Marketing Joy!

by Kirby Hasseman

This week in Episode 99 of Delivering Marketing Joy!, Kirby Hasseman interviews Charity Gibson from Green Banana Social and Next Products.   Charity is known as a disrupter, meaning she is always looking for a new way to do things. During the interview, she discusses changes that she sees coming in the next few years regarding the industry. Charity believes that e-commerce will rise along with retail driven products. Businesses need to work with suppliers in order to keep themselves relevant. The idea is to make its suppliers want to keep us in the chain, instead of selling directly to buyers. There will always be a need for commodity products. People who buy in bulk don’t want to spend that extra dollar for pointless frills. Charity warns that companies need to watch out for the changes coming so they can be prepared.   Both Kirby and Charity agree that in business, you need to pick a lane. Find what you’re good at and stay there. In other words “Find your Niche!”In this Episode, Charity states that most people are doing social media correctly. Charity considers that many people are not doing it wrong. She states that being authentic is critical in social media. She encourages everyone to be themselves; this is what comes naturally to those writing the posts. She upholds the conviction that “Not everyone needs to like it, just the right people.” When you go into Business you only need to attract certain people. During the interview Charity discuss what it is like to be part of Promo Kitchen. She loves being with everyone there because the atmosphere is so diverse. She believes that the ideas generated from Promo Kitchen are helping guide companies into the future. Having people from different skill levels helps new ideas flow. Finding different ways to aid the industry allows them to stay relevant, by looking at a problem from different angles. Want to keep up all the time?  Make sure to join our VIP List!  Our VIP’s get an email with the latest content…and other special offers as well.  Join here.
