If you don’t stay in touch with your customers, chances are, someone else will. Here are a few customer retention marketing ideas to consider:

• Encourage open communication with your customers by requesting feedback and suggestions. Offer options such as email, surveys, a toll-free number, chat forums, etc.


• Send a handwritten thank you note or email shortly after each purchase. Consider including a coupon for a product or service that is related to a recent purchase.


• Feature customer testimonials to highlight customers who are successful using your products or services.


• Send a birthday postcard with an exclusive promotion to let them know you’re thinking of them.


• Send a newsletter that provides “news they can use” with helpful industry resources, tips and tricks, and promotional announcements.


• Invite customers to join a loyalty program with exclusive incentives and rewards for return customers.


• Promote a small contest or giveaway on your website each month, and provide recognition to the previous winners.


• Socialize with your customers. Attend trade shows, offer open houses, encourage customers to respond to blog posts, communicate on social media sites, etc.

If your business or fundraising organization provides to-go food containers or pizza boxes, don’t miss out on a valuable marketing opportunity to include a “box topper.”

Box toppers are essentially a flyer that is attached to the top of a box or food container that includes valuable marketing information, coupons, a calendar of events, or other important information for your audience.

Box toppers can also be a great addition to any event with catered or boxed lunches, which can be a great way to promote your business or provide exclusive messaging on the top of boxed lunches.

Box toppers can be created in any shape, size, or color, with finishing touches to suit any promotion. For example, box toppers can feature die-cut shapes, perforated coupons, tear-away business cards, or can even be designed as a tri-fold menu brochure.

If you’d like help creating the perfect box toppers for your business, drop us an email today!

Many presenters put so much energy and focus into their PowerPoint presentations that they forget the importance of interacting with the audience. Whether you purchase a wireless presenter/remote/clicker, or download an app that turns your smartphone or tablet into a remote (such as Android’s free “Office Remote” app), here are a few reasons to consider using a remote control during presentations:

• Flexible movement. Interact freely with your audience, walk around the room, and make eye contact with your audience, rather than being stuck next to your computer.


• Fewer distractions. You can easily advance slides without walking back and forth to your computer.


• You take full control. You can avoid relying on someone else to control your slides and ease your stage anxiety of correct slide timing.


• Maintain focus. Ensure your audience focuses on what you are saying, rather than what you are doing.


• Additional features. Many remotes include built-in functions such as laser pointers, which make it simple to highlight key points of a slide.
