subject: Start Your New Year With A Custom Car Magnet [print this page] Resolve To Find New Ways To Expand Your Name Recognition
Every New Year's Eve, I have a few close friends over for oysters and laughs as we witness the old year coming to a close. Whether the year has been good or bad, or a mix of both, after midnight we usually talk about what we would like to see happen in the year to come. Most of the answers concern work issues, and one of the more popular goals is always to find ways to make business grow. If this sounds like one of your goals, then consider creative ways to advertise this year. An affordable, effective way to promote business is easy and fun - order a custom car magnet to advertise your business.
Car Magnets Make Your Business Look New, Even If It's Been Around A While!
If you have a well-established business, and your goal is to give it some new life, a new advertising campaign that includes custom car magnets is a great place to start. Custom car magnets are inexpensive and easy to create, and a new graphic or logo that promotes your business and goes wherever you go tells all of your old clients and potential new ones that it's time to do some more business.
And if you don't think your new custom car magnets will turn heads, then keep this in mind: for every mile of road you travel, your custom car magnet receives 130 advertising impressions! You're probably already doing the math in your head, but by next New Year's, that could add up to be at least two million sightings just by going about your daily routine. And for the low cost of car magnets, I would say that's a smart way to start the New Year!
How To Give Your Custom Car Magnet A Fresh, New Look
Even if you don't feel the need to redesign your business logo, adding a slogan or highlighting your logo on a complementing background color can change the way people look at your custom car magnet.
Also, consider a new shape for your custom car magnet. Most people order rectangular car magnets, which can look very nice and professional, but sometimes it's fun to create a design that emphasizes what you do while standing out from the crowd. For example, I noticed a custom jeweler's car magnet recently, and guess what shape it was in? You got it - a diamond! And I'm mentioning it now because the shape was so clever that it made it easy for me to remember his name and business.
Of course, consider your client base. You may want to stay away from fun shapes or bright, vibrant colors on your custom car magnet if you have a service based business such as real estate or insurance. In that case, a standard rectangular shape can still stand out with a professional, corporate design. Many high quality sign shops employ artistic design teams to assist customers in coming up with a unique image to advertise their business while catching potential clients' eyes at the same time.
How Do I Keep My New Custom Car Magnet's Fresh, New Look?
The first step you need to take in ordering your custom car magnet is to measure the space where you plan to place it to make sure it fits. A poor fit will reduce a magnet's effectiveness in sticking to the car.
The second thing you need to do is order a custom car magnet with ScratchGuard, a thin material that protects your car against scratches and possible rust stains from the custom magnetic signs. Many sign shops surprisingly don't offer ScratchGuard car magnets, but higher quality shops do. So make sure you ask before ordering your custom car magnet.
Finally, once you have a custom designed vehicle magnet that fits your car perfectly and is bonded with ScratchGuard, make sure you keep it clean. Your custom vehicle magnet goes where your car does, exposing it to the elements and exhaust from other cars. All you have to do to maintain your car magnet's clear image is clean it periodically with warm soapy water and a soft cloth - not paper towels!!! Paper towels are far too abrasive and will scratch the surface of your custom car magnet.
If you take these steps in preserving your custom car magnet, then not only will it last the expected 3-5 years, but it will make your business look fresh and new every time you leave the house!
So Begin The New Year With A New Custom Vehicle Magnet!
Because with a fresh, new approach to your business's image, you won't even have to eat collard greens to watch your business grow!
