Scented Business CardsHere's how to give your cards any fragrance you choose: Place your cards inside a preferably airtight container with scented oil or potpourri of your choice. You can apply the scented oil to a small cloth or tissue. (Using a small container can help speed up the process.) If your business involves food, flowers or other aromas, scented business cards make perfect sense. For example:
Just place several candles in your most popular fragrance inside a container with your business cards. You can use the same "recipe" with soap to achieve the sweet smell of success. You won't have to tell anyone how great your products are. Your cards will do it for you! Our sense of smell is the strongest of our five senses in terms of memory. Studies have even linked a diminished sense of smell to memory problems. If your market happens to be mostly female, scented business cards might be even more effective. Of the two genders, females have the stronger sense of smell. |
Quick Tips: Enclose a business card promoting your website with each piece of outgoing mail. Ask customers who frequently do business with you for a testimonial. Promote your website URL offline on everything from bumper stickers to your answering machine message. Want to reach the highest percentage of your target market? Advertise in specialty publications including newspaper supplements devoted to a specific topic. Marketing is crucial, but it doesn't always have to be serious. Some of the most effective advertising campaigns rely on humor. Don't be afraid to make your customers laugh! |
