If you are working with the travel industry, then how can you best use promotional travel items to bolster your sales and bring customers back to you and new customers into you?
For those companies that want customers to be reminded of them after they have returned from their holiday, promotional luggage labels can work a treat. If, for example, you can print customers’ holiday photos and want to advertise this service, then you can slip luggage labels into processed orders or better still arrange for local independent travel agents to hand out your luggage labels, for free, to their customers who are picking up their holiday tickets. When they are packing they will see your logo and when they are packing to return from their holiday and then unpacking they will again see your logo. This is the right moment to hit them - they have just returned from their holiday, probably with their pictures still on their digital media, and a reminder from you of your services could be just what they need.
Whether you are a large hotel, small bed and breakfast, holiday apartments or similar, then providing promotional shoe shine and promotional sewing kits can seem an expense as many customers take them away with them, but that is exactly what you need. These kits are taken home, maybe even by business travellers looking for a token for their children back home, and kept in washbags or travel bags or given to others. This means that at a later date, maybe when they are thinking of travelling back to your area, they see your gift and logo and this could just be what is needed to prompt a return visit.
If you are providing travel services then adding to the service you provide gifts such as sewing kits is seen as giving added value to your services, as well as reminding customers of your services at a later date.
Being associated with the happy times in your customers’ lives is a great way of drawing their attention to yourself and hopefully bringing in some future sales. If you are lucky enough to be involved in one of the many industries that directly serve such moments then you immediately have that tie.
What about those industries that follow these moments, for example photograph printing companies? In many instances customers will be on holiday, at celebration events and other momentous occasions taking photographs. How do these industries convince customers to come to them to have their photographs printed using their services, not their competitors?
And what if you are not at all associated with these moments? Can you still benefit from these happy times and remind your potential customer base that you exist as they are packing to enjoy a holiday? Of course you can, and whether you are travel related, you pick up after the holiday or you have absolutely nothing at all to do with the travel industry, then travel promotional items can still work for your company and associate a happy time with your brand image or products.
There’s a great range of travel promotional items on the market. The simplest can be well produced baggage labels, which are really important in the preparation for those holiday flights. There are also sewing kits that you can have printed with your logo and a lot more ideas. By using travel gifts in your next promotional campaign, the items will be put away until your customer’s holiday and they will see them, usually before, during and after the holiday.
