A promotional magnet… How could I use it?
I was on a short vacation. On the way back, I simply wanted to buy a souvenir for my mom. I was looking for a fridge magnet or a candle. Something like this. She likes these things very much. However, I found something else. A magnetic postcard. And I remembered those old times when we were on vacations and we were sending postcards for friends and family.
On the front, it has printed a stunning sunrise. On the back – the traditional blank space that we find on all the postcards. And I thought it was quite an interesting idea. Especially because my mom throws all my postcards after a while. But when I got home I saw my magnetic postcard prominently on the fridge.
So….. Why not? I wanted to talk to you about using the promotional magnets for personal occasions.
Ok, we have already known that the fridge magnets are one of the most inexpensive marketing tools. I will not tell you that “According to a study of the American Purdue University, the average person visits their fridge 10-12 times a day. For a family of 4, that means an average of 300 impressions a week or 15,000 impressions a year for a company advert in the heart of their customer’s homes.”
I will not tell you that “fridge magnets remain in the household for an average of 6-8 years”, and that “the fridge magnets are one of the lowest costs per impression of any item in the advertising industry!”.
But I’d like to talk about the usage of promotional magnets for your personal occasions. Why not? Although these items are known as “fridge magnets”, actually, they can be used on any metallic surfaces like desks, cabinets, even for boiler cover (attached there by the plumbing and heating engineers in order to remind us whom to call when the hot water doesn’t works). And so on.
