Marketing can be expensive. However, creative marketing can be exactly the opposite and cost you very little. Meet your new best friend – personalized wristbands. You will be giving these wrist bands out for free, so it is important that they are in-expensive and produce results. How do these little things drive results?

Create A Theme

The first thing you need to do, if you haven’s already, is create a theme for your products. A simple design is not enough, because to your potential customer base that is just words (unless you have an amazing product than you can just print a website on the wristbands). Once you establish a deep root in what your brand/product is trying to convey than it’s easy to come up with a phrase to relate to that.

Time Pending

As you can see in the image above – it’s obviously based on a certain time frame. This is good for a few occasions. If the personalized wristbands are for a graduating class or a new years event then it works out perfect. However, if they are for a fundraiser i advise you think twice about putting a year. The reason is that you may have left overs and in that case will not be able to use them the next year due to the previous year being printed on them. It’s little things like this that will save you money

Give the wristbands out for Free? Seriously?

Um, YES! Throw your website, a clever saying, a logo on there, and BOOM – your good to go. This works well for bands as well because a lot of times all a band really needs to get across (besides great music) is where to find them socially on the web. A band/company name and a myspace would do you a whole lot better than just your company name. There needs to be the assumption that people like you, they definitely want free promo items, and they would be willing to see you again if they knew how. At events, both music and business wise, memories are created and people are met. It is your choice as an organization to either be part of that or to shy away.
