    • How to Increase your Brand Awareness using Promotional Products

       


      Lets look at how to improve your brand awareness with promotional products. Whether you are trying to introduce and promote a new or existing service, or trying to retain or recapture past customers as well as attract new ones, promotional merchandise can be invaluable in speaking volumes about your brand. 


      Did you know the first known promotional products (commemorative buttons) trace back to 1789 when George Washington was elected president. We strongly believe the key to creating strong brand awareness is repeated exposure of your brand to your target audience, and we have a huge range of ‘just add print products’ that can make a big impact. Let’s take a look at the ways you can increase your business using promotional products


      Create internal confidence first 


      AdventaTo get others believing in your company and its products you need to ensure the team behind it have confidence in the range and services as well. Get your employees immersed in the brand – use promotional items at work. Your employees should be the first to market your products and services. Get them to enjoy coffee on the go and raise brand awareness at the same time with our Active Thermal Mug.  Or with the coffee them continuing why not ensure our Premium Glass Coaster sits proudly on everyones desk -makes it incredibly easy to insert your brands print, whilst it’s practically unbreakable, made using toughened safety glass. Everyone knows how many coffee rounds are done at work so imagine the amount of times your logo will be reprinted into your staffs minds. Using a product line that includes something that your employees can use daily at work is extremely important. 


      Stand out at Trade Shows & Exhibitions 


      Trade exhibitions are one of the best opportunities with networking with new and past customers as wellPhoto as our peers within your industry so its natural that everyone wants to stand out and be noticed. Its how you engage with potential customers. Try giving out free branded promotional items..nothing beats free stuff when it comes to getting attention. Try our simple Classic Pen, perfectly sized to show of your logo, and with its ergonomic and premium grip it will leave an impression of quality in your customers minds. 


      Location, Location, Location... 


      Think about items that can be used when the buying decision makers are at their computers thinking about placing an order. Try our Mouse Mats– just insert your branded print to create an attractive piece of office stationary for your team or a valuable customer. 


      PenAlso avoid things that wont last long... you want them to remember your brand name for the long term so rather than hand out branded sticky pads why not try a paper & pen pot holders that can be used repeatedly. Our promotional note holders not only make attractive pieces of stationery but will be there sat in front of your customers day in day out. 


       


      Dont rely on logos alone...make it unique to your client


      It is easy to assume that the most important aspect of a promotional product is to have your companysPersonalised logo on it and even though that it is still true it can still be highly effective if you make it more about personalisation. Sometimes personalising the item for the client makes more sense and more impact. Putting a good customer’s name on a ballpoint pen, water bottle, or reusable shopping bag ensures they will use it – and tell others where they got it. Try our Ruler range..everyone needs a ruler... an in an office people can get quite possessive over their own stationery so its useful for your client and creates a talking point about your brand. 


      Reinforces your brands beliefs 


      PromotionalSelect a product that makes a statement about your brand... if environmental concerns are at the top of your priority list then reusable bags are a popular promotional tool for just that. Theyre on trend, people use them frequently and are inexpensive. Our Jute Bags make the ideal giveaway to fit your green policy. Our Jute Bags are available in a range of colours and sizes and features a wide insert so you can brand them or personalise them for your customers. 


       


       


      So there we have it.. a range of ways to use promotional products to enhance and increase your brands visibility. Giving out promotional products is just a simple and effective way to break the ice and start up a conversation. Sometimes that’s all it takes and next thing you know, the two of you are communicating and you have orders rolling in. Promotional items neednt be expensive, but they should solve problem areas in your target markets so think carefully about what you want the item to achieve and say about your company.

    • Vision Wall Makes an Impact in Support of Local Artist

      Vision Wall Makes an Impact in Support of Local Artist


      During February, the Adventa, acrylic poster frame – the Vision Wall, will be creating an artistic impression at a local exhibition being held at the Newtown Library in Powys, Mid-Wales.


      The exhibition features a collection of pictures from a local, and very talented artist, Rosie Robinson, who sadly recently passed away.


      We are delighted to have supported the exhibition with a range of our picture frames to highlight Rosie’s wonderful paintings in a professional and impactful way comments John Morrish, Sales & Marketing Director. 


      These poster frames are the latest concept for large, modern wall art. Contemporary & stylish, these wallVision mountable acrylic frames stand out from the wall and allow prints and art to be displayed in a frame without a border.


      Growing up in upper Trefnant Maesmawr with her three brothers, Rosie attended three schools Cyfronydd school, followed on by Robert Owen, in Newtown and then she went on to attend Leighton base in Forden. It was in Leighton base, working with staff and community artist Ingrid Maugham that she produced the pictures you see in her exhibition today.


      Rosie had a learning disability but throughout her life she enjoyed many things such as cooking, dancing, holidays, pop music, drawing and most of all butterflies. In Rosies eyes the world was pink as that was her favourite colour. Everything had to be pink!


      Most of the pictures in the exhibition are from the period 1990 and 2010 when she worked with a community artist called Ingrid Maugham. Ingrid helped her to express herself through art and how to build colour and tone


      Critical Acclaim


      The paintings and drawing of Rosemary “Rosie” Robinson are remarkable for the richness and subtleties of the experience they relate. Each line, each circle, each group of people is carefully and pleasingly considered.


      To call Rosie’s work naïve or primitive is to miss the point. Her art derives from a carefully observed life. The visual vocabulary she uses is both consistent and surprising. These aren’t arbitrary images thrown together in a spare moment. They are the work of someone in control of their language. The language she employs may be different from that used by a traditionally schooled artist, but the work produced is no less insightful. They tell a distinct and welcome story.


      These are paintings about place, family, work, play; about life. Finally, they are what good art aspires to be, a unique vision of a unique life.


      Rosie was a very special and unique person. Everybody she met fell in love with her because of her wonderful personality. On November 24th 2016 Rosie passed away peacefully aged 58.


      The fantastic collection is available to view in the Newtown Library for the whole of February so if you’re in the area we highly recommend a visit. The collection will also be visible in Theatre Hafren during June and July also.



      VisionThe pictures can be purchased through the family, with any money raised going to local charity projects. The remaining pictures will be offered to community hospitals and day centres around Powys.



      This exhibition highlights how the right frame can really complement a finished piece of art. If you are interested in the Vision Wall range please click here for further information or contact our Sales Representatives on 01686 625100.
