How to sell more promotional products during a recession!
I've been in the industry for 30 years and have never had repeat business like I'm getting now. Continuing to educate ourselves is probably the most important thing we can do. Please take a few moments and view the video link to find out why my success can also be yours.
Watch one or all of the videos and decide for yourself if we join the downturn or beat it.
To your financial health!

I'd like to believe you. I've had a pretty good month due to a new client doing lots of wearables. But to suggest what you are saying is a bit hard to believe given the economics of today.

I guess you're right in one sense! They say the economy is not doing well!
On the other hand there are many who ignore the media and have money and spend it.
I believe we have a choice and that is a good thing!

"they say the economy is not doing well". Kind of an understatement don't you think. Let's see a recession, unemployment, a housing bubble that has burst. Hasn't happened before in my lifetime at one time.

You're right companies may have money, but they may not want to spend it since guess what. Big companies and quite frankly businesses in general are experiencing a credit crunch beyond their control.

And it isn't about the media. It's about economics.

Allan,
It all depends how you operate. I will be the last one to tell you but consider this. When I show a customer a promotion that will get them $10 for every $1 they spend they are interested no matter what the economy is doing. Most promotional product sales people are simply peddling products. Creating a promotion is how you avoid the current crisis.
Expense vs. Investment!

Your last comment presumes that there are no customers out their for your customers products. The fact is that there are lots of customers out there. There are lots of people who want to buy cars. They aren't buying because of economic uncertainly. Giving 5,000.00 off the price of a car which seems to be a nice incentive isn't even working.

You have somehow figured out how to get around all of this. How much does it cost in order that I might have the opportunity to experience similar knowledge that will circumvent current economies.

There is no cost to putting together a promotion.
The videos are pointing you to a successful marketing strategy that I used back in the 80's when I was selling cars. The difference today is it's automated. I was the number one salesman 9 out of 12 months in 1985 using the basic system. Today my customers tell others about me almost daily. People aren't throwing their hands in the air and saying I give up they're looking for someone with an idea...
