\"bmthundercv2\"<\/a>Let\u2019s face it: times are tough. You need to spend marketing dollars to get sales, but you need sales to fund your marketing budget.\u00a0 For a relatively inexpensive promotion with maximum staying-power, look to reusable bags. Custom logoed reusable bags are the perfect promotional vehicle for our tight economy.<\/p>\n

For starters, you can\u2019t beat the targeted marketing. The person buying, receiving, and using the bag is usually the person who does the majority of the shopping and therefore the person makes the majority of the household buying decisions.\u00a0 From which bank, a mortgage broker or insurance company the family uses; to which hair salon they frequent, to which brands and stores they are loyal to – this is a powerful demographic! Reusable bag advertising allows you to put your company name and message directly in the hands of the person of this person — and keep it there until they are ready to do business with you.<\/p>\n

Reusable bags are used an average of one time a week and likely remain visible in the car and in the home when not in use.\u00a0 Most people will keep–and use–the bag for 5 years or more. What other imprinted promotional product can consistently claim that longevity? Added bonus: using a reusable bag saves an average of 12-16 plastic carryout bags per week.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Reusable bags are durable, physical and personal \u2013 resulting in better name retention than other advertising mediums.<\/p>\n

Custom imprinted reusable bags generate customer goodwill and loyalty.\u00a0 Reusable bag promotions<\/a> demonstrate your commitment to the environment, thereby connecting with your consumers in a meaningful way.<\/p>\n

Take this one step further by implementing a reusable bag incentive program<\/a> — The Progressive Grocer has some great ideas for retailers. Create a standalone piece that explains the incentive for bringing reusable bags to your store (like a per-bag discount of $.10). Of course, you\u2019d love for the customer to carry YOUR reusable bags with your logos. In this case, perhaps offer a higher incentive with the purchase your customized tote, such as a $5.00 in-store coupon.<\/p>\n
