This week's tip: Pop in to Get Holiday Sales from Potential Clients
As you visit potential clients to introduce your company or to finalize holiday orders, leave behind a small gift along with your business card.
Popcorn is a very affordable item, and it's a popular snack. So consider making a slip-on wrapper for a microwaveable popcorn packet. Then add a catchy greeting and a holiday image or your logo on the front and your contact information on the back. You may print it on matte or photo paper if you wish or hire a printer if you want to produce a large quantity.
Your gift will be low-key so you won't appear to be trying too hard, and it'll be welcomed by everyone.
Here are a few greetings to get you started:
-
Just poppin' in to say thank you for your order.
-
