6 6 Solution 1—End-Users Remember the Brands on the Items They’ve Received

7 7 Objection 2 “Is someone really going to change their opinion of me just because I sent them a pen? I doubt it.”

8 8 Solution 2—42% of end-users have a MORE favorable impression of an advertiser after receiving the item

9 9 Objection 3 “Sure, my client is going to love to take the free stuff I give him. But that won’t make him any more likely to do business with me.”

10 10 Solution 3—Nearly 25% of end-users are MORE LIKELY to do business with the advertiser on the items they receive

11 11 Objection 4 “Say I use a promotional product in a direct mail campaign. What assurances do I have that I’ll ever hear from the prospect again?”

12 12 Solution 4—Most end-users have done business with the advertiser AFTER RECEIVING the item

13 13 Objection 5 “I bet nobody really holds onto a promotional pen. They probably go right in the trash.”

14 14 Solution 5—Writing Instruments Are The Most-Recalled Promotional Item

17 17 Objection 7 “Unless a promotional product is super high- end, which I can’t afford, or really attractive, nobody’s going to want to keep it.”

18 18 Solution 7—End-users keep items that are USEFUL

19 19 Objection 8 “Why should I waste my money on a tote bag? It probably only gets used one or twice at most – maybe some guy will grab it to wipe off his windshield or something.”

20 20 Solution 8—Bags are the most frequently used apparel item

21 21 Objection 9 “I need an advertising mechanism that will be in front of my prospects every day – that’s why I advertise in my local newspaper. Your products won’t do that for me.”

22 22 Solution 9—Many Advertising Specialties Are Used Every Day

23 23 Objection 10 “I need to invest my money in media that delivers real impressions. Now if you could show me how many impressions I’d get from a promotional product, I might consider buying one. But you can’t do that, can you?”

24 24 Solution 10—Promotional Products Deliver Significant Numbers of Impressions

25 25 Objection 11 “Money is tight right now. I’d love to buy something from you but I just can’t afford promotional products.”

26 26 Solution 11-The Cost-Per-Impression of Advertising Specialties is a Fraction of a Cent

27 27 Objection 12 “I’d rather put my marketing dollars into television ads. They’re much more cost- effective because they have a wider reach.”
