In today’s online world, print catalogs are still a necessary tool and invaluable resource for your business.  Catalogs are a way to market your products to your customers. But use them to your advantage, if you use catalogs create them in such a way that they remain in front of your customers.  The longer your customers or potential customers keep your catalogs, the more likely they will be to read it, use it as a resource and purchase from it.

Catalogs need to be a resource and sales tool.

Many companies are using the internet and telephone as a way for their customers to place orders. However, those businesses who also use catalogs show a high percentage of clients who use catalog forms to place their orders. You know, not all of your clients are computer savvy. It is important to give your customers multiple ways to looking for your products and pricing.

Within your catalog there should always be an order form. Catalogs can be an efficient marketing tool when designed properly, each section or product must contain a call to action. Calls to action create an impact and encourage your customer to act. For help designing and printing your product catalog, contact Blue Hill Press.

It is important in marketing today to integrate all types of media into your strategy. As you know, social media is a huge marketing medium, and those businesses that tie it together with direct mail, print marketing and the company web site have marketing avenues that complement each other for much better results and higher ROI.

Social media has affected direct mail. By applying QR codes to direct mail pieces you can link your business to your social media sites. Within those sites, customers can share feedback on your goods and services and interact with your brand, your company directly.

Additionally, by intertwining your print marketing and your digital marketing, you also give yourself a new venue in which to promote your company’s products, services, specials and discounts.

By reminding potential customers to “like” your company’s business page, or to “follow you on twitter” with your direct mail marketing, you can supply your customers with up to the minute information, discounts, and incentives.
