Memorial Day is Coming – Printing Ideas for Memorial Day Sales and Events

5 Printing Ideas for Memorial Day Sales and Events

Running a Memorial Day sale, promotion, or event is a great way to build your business’s brand while participating in honoring the tradition. Let’s look at 5 ways businesses can promote their Memorial Day sales.

Window banners

The most important key performance indicator for a brick and mortar business is the number of customers that come through the door. Increasing customer inflow can be achieved in a variety of ways, but an effective window banner will make customers act like moths to a flame. Mattress companies, known for having Memorial Day sales, use banners in their windows to raise interest. Your window banner needs to be attractive enough to catch the attention of passersby, yet convey a succinct and potent message that will stick with them.
Memorial-Day-sale

Popup banners

Pop up banners have a similar effect to window banners, but have the added benefit of placement outdoors or in a key area within your store. Some popup banners can move with the wind, thus providing eye-catching motion. Car dealers use a type of pop up banners called feather signs as well, and you can too, regardless of the type of business. Get your message across to people that will be driving by your establishment in the days leading up to Memorial Day.

T-shirts

T-shirts are a mainstay in the promotion department. You can stick out by creating shirts that are tied to the Memorial Day theme. Bonus tip: Create a shirt design that someone would want to wear beyond the holiday; a shirt that isn’t too salesy or promotional in nature. A t-shirt that people will continue to wear after Memorial Day will be a walking, living, breathing advertisement for your business for days and months to come. Feel free to use just enough humor or creativity to make a shirt that will match the qualities you want your brand to convey.

Mugs

Mugs, similar to t-shirts, are something that people can hold onto for a long time. The right design can make your mug a favorite for your visitors. Perhaps they will choose to take your mug along to work with them in the morning, filled with their favorite coffee. How about a juice cup for people that either don’t drink coffee or would prefer to have the alternative?

Menus or catalogs

If you own a restaurant, a custom Memorial Day menu can create interest in your establishment. Special pricing and unique menu offerings can draw patrons that will be looking to spend time with their friends and loved ones on the 27th. If you would like to get more out of the menus, create a week-long special menu that focuses on the holiday. Coupled with some advertising, you can draw patrons and use other promotional materials to generate repeat customers.

Memorial Day is an important holiday for the history of our country. Participate in the festivities by showing your target market that you share in the commemoration while putting your best foot forward. Attract customers by giving them something that will place your business at the forefront of their mind.

3 Tips for Using the Power of Printing to Raise Your Easter Event Level

Easter-Egg-Hunt-Flyer-2018, Power of Printing

From Special Easter Services to Classic Easter Egg Hunts, Leverage Online Printing to Reach Your Audience

Easter is an exciting time of the year across the US. The weather is warming up and Easter time brings people together to build memories and learn more about Easter. As a church, this is an incredible opportunity to serve your community and congregation together in this celebration of this special day. Here are four tips to reach your community for Easter.

Easter Egg Hunt

An Easter Egg hunt brings childhood memories to the adults and excitement to the kids. Nostalgia and the thrill of hunting eggs together makes a fun time for everyone. A professionally printed banner can show people where the Easter egg hunt will be located and will provide a visual for all to see. At Color Copies USA, we can quickly print a vinyl banner that is durable and can be used more than once for the occasion. Find more about our banners at: https://colorprinting.colorcopiesusa.com/product/banners

Location, Location, Location

One of the most frustrating things when visiting a new church is knowing where to go. Creative uses of retractable banners and signs will help visitors and members alike know where they are and where to go. Retractable banners can be set up on a floor or table and retract for easy storage. Signs can point people to key areas of your church such as the main auditorium and classrooms. Posters are also an easy way to communicate information to attendees in a visually pleasing manner. Find out more about our retractable banners and posters.

Easter Musical or Play

Holding an Easter musical or play is a fun way to involve kids and teenagers to bring the story of Easter to life. This may bring in parents and grandparents who would not otherwise attend church and gives you an opportunity to share the story of Easter with them. A good way to get information into the hand of attendees is to use a professionally printed brochure. Brochures are an effective way to present information about the event as well as show more information about the services and classes your church offers throughout the year. It is also a good way to highlight key events coming up in the future. Our color brochures are eye-catching and are made with higher quality paper than flyers, prompting people to read and keep them. This results in your information being in the hands of attendees longer. Find out more about our brochure printing here: https://colorcopiesusa.com/color-brochures-and-sales-sheets.html

Easter Promotional Items

Giving your Easter attendees something to remember the day (and your church) will extend the reach of your church past just Easter day. A promotional item can range from t-shirts to pens and many other items. Color Copies USA has a wide variety of promotional items to meet your interests and budget. Putting your church name on an item will help attendees remember the special day as well as your church. That way, later in the year, other ways you reach out to your community will make a closer connection to those people. Not only t-shirts and pens, we also offer bags, hats, cups and more. We offer several catalogs of promotional items to meet your needs.

A little planning and professionally printed material will provide a welcoming and memorable experience to attendees while you convey the message of Easter to others.

Lucky Ideas for Making St. Patty’s Day Event a Rousing Success!

ST-PATRICKS-DAY-EVENT-2016-2

St. Patrick’s Day Promotional Printing Ideas For Your Business or Restaurant

Saying that St. Patrick’s Day is one of the most enjoyable holidays around the country would certainly be an understatement. And if you look around in the weeks before the festival of green, you’ll see plenty of flyers and ads promoting upcoming St. Patty’s Day sales, postcard promoting Irish music and dance events and vinyl banners for upcoming parades.

According to statistics in Forbes, more than 33 million people celebrate St. Patrick’s Day each year in the USA, with no less than 13 million pints of beer consumed on March 17 annually.

In the parties, parades, and celebrations that are thrown for St. Patty’s Day each year, 82.5 percent of attendees decide to wear green. The rest of them often decide to wear green or shamrock themed memorabilia to honor Ireland, the cherished homeland of St. Patrick and ancestral homeland of so many Americans. What a great idea!

This adds up to $5.3 billion dollars of expenses with a $38 expense for the average partygoer.

That creates an opportunity for businesses to be a part of memorable events that not only serve as a great source of revenue generation but which also allow ample entertainment to a majority of their customer base.

As such, this allows their customers to associate their brand with positive memories, and the mutual values they share towards a strong business connection.

To make sure that you make the most out of this great opportunity while having some fun along the way, here are a few lucky ideas to making your own St. Patty’s Day party a success.

Spread the Cheer With Green Beer

One of the best ideas to help make it a lively St. Patty’s Day bash is also the simplest: serve green beer to the guests at your event to give your locale that ‘Irish pub’ feel.

While green beer is not originally from Ireland, this American brew has become a staple in St. Patrick Day celebrations in recent years. If your business wants to throw a fun party, then the inclusion of this vibrant drink is a must have.

Speaking of celebrations, announce yours with custom flyers. Color copies can be printed for pennies these days, and online printers like Color Copies USA can send you your flyers quickly via UPS or US Mail, so that you can get to work promoting your celebration or event.

If you own an Irish pub yourself, then it’s a good idea to make sure to utilize this drink to the fullest. On the other hand, even if you operate in a different business sector, you can sponsor a local pub as a part of your St. Patrick’s Day celebrations.

In either case, make sure you have some branding materials in hand. Pop-up banners, special menus, and flyers to go around the neighborhood would all work towards ensuring a great guest turnover.

Throw a St. Patrick’s Day Concert

Putting together a concert can take some work. But if you have an idea as to how to pull it off, then it can leave your customers with long-lasting and positive memories.

You don’t have to go all the way and spend a leprechaun’s weight in gold at this event. Instead, keep it simple with local and passionate artists while making the event more fun by serving of some of the best Guinness you can find.

Remember, you can also simply sponsor such an event and be a part of the celebrations without doing the heavy lifting.

Once again, pamphlets, flyers, and t-shirts could serve as great branding merchandise. Make sure to spend some amount there for ample exposure.

Plan and Host a Irish Dance Festival

Irish dancing festivals are yet another popular way to uphold the modern spirit of St. Patty’s Day.

Like concerts, these events can take some work as well. But when they are put together well, you get to have passionate guests and long term customers who would remember your special and unique brand. They will remember that you made the extra effort and that you were there to celebrate. There are likely a number of dance schools in your area. Just make a few inquiries to find out which feature Irish dancers and then your sure to get them interested in appearing at your vent. Don’t forget to promote the event with flyers, banners etc.

Sponsorship and branding would of course once again be at play. Whether you are arranging the event yourself or simply participating as a sponsor, ensure to use some nicely printed merchandise such as indoor posters, banners and signs to make the most out of the branding opportunity at hand.

Make Use of Branding Opportunities

If you are planning a St. Patty’s Day Concert or Irish Dancing Festival, you’ll want to choose an online printing company such as Color Copies USA that has sufficient experience with event promotions.

Providers such as Color Copies USA can take the heavy lifting of merchandising off of your hands, so you can focus on your event planning and core business activities instead. We have great ideas to help you promote on for your March 17 event, sale or promotion.

After all, the key of a successful St. Patty’s Day party is to focus on providing your customers with fun experiences while genuinely enjoying the event yourself.

How to Market My New Business in 2019 by Using Online Printing

Online Printing Can Help You Reach Your Goals

Congratulations, you have taken the leap and started your own business! It’s a big step and an accomplishment you should be proud of. Now that you’ve set up your new company, you are likely wondering how to effectively market it. Most modern business marketing advice revolves around digital marketing methods such as having a good website. profiles on major social media platforms. search engine optimization and content marketing. While these are important, they cannot wholly replace the value of printed materials in marketing.

Some businesses, for example, may primarily operate locally and have little need for digital marketing efforts. Even if your business is wholly online, there are still benefits to using printed marketing materials. The following is an in-depth guide for how to market your new business in 2019 by using printing like that available here at ColorCopiesUSA.com.

Direct Mail

For certain types of businesses, direct mail can be an invaluable way to gain the attention of clients. This is especially true for small businesses like doctor’s offices and storefronts that don’t do much business outside of a local community. Direct mailings can remind customers that your business is still there if they haven’t come in a while, promote sales and discounts, advertise that your new business has opened and more. It is a good way to reach people who may not spend a lot of time online, such as older demographics, if your business caters to them. There are a lot of possibilities with direct mail you can discover by getting some printed and seeing for yourself.

Business Cards

Most professionals are well-served by having a business card they can hand out to people at events or in passing. This is especially true if you are a freelancer or even run an online business. A business card is a great way to encourage people you meet in real life to check out your website and the products or services you provide online. Business cards also provide contact information so people can contact you later with questions, commissions or other requests.

Storefront Signs

If you run a physical store or office, color banners and signage are practically a necessity. They can serve to advertise your business from the windows to catch the eyes of passerby and convince them to come inside and shop. This is helpful because these signs immediately let customers know what you sell and the type of business you are. They can advertise promotions or sales that may be going on at the moment. Retractable banners and indoor posters can also serve to make the inside of your store or office more vibrant.

Promotional Items

Your printed logo, the name of your business or a clever saying printed on promotional items is another great way printing can promote your business. T-shirts, for example, can be worn by your employees at events and sold to your customers to spread the word about your business. They are also helpful for branding and team-building efforts among your employees.

Other Types Of Signs

Billboards, flyers posted around town and other types of physical signage are very effective at drawing attention to your new business and will continue to be popular in 2019. Car signs, including magnets carried by Color Copies USA, are also a great idea. They serve as a moving advertisement for your business just while driving around town. They are especially useful if your operation goes to individual homes, such as if you run a cleaning business or a dog training service.

Printed materials are still very relevant in advertising your new business…even in 2019. They be used in any number of ways to help get your new business of the ground and experience growth. Choose an online printing company experienced in working with many different types of industries to successfully promote and grow your new business.

An Overview of Today’s Printing Press Technology

There are so many technological advances in the world of printing these days, from 3D printing, from new innovations in digital printing, from nanographic printing to the explosion of online printing companies like ColorCopiesUSA, the industry is as viable as ever.

Initially however, the printing process was very tedious and time consuming. With the invention of movable parts, printing machines revolutionized the printing process. It facilitated faster and better printing which helped to spread knowledge and education around the world. Nowadays, the printing process has improved considerably due to technological advancement. Mass publications are made within a short time while still maintaining quality. Here are some of the common printing techniques used today.

Offset Lithography

It is one of the commonly used techniques in the printing industry. In this process, the content to be printed is contained on a printing plate. The plate has been designed to hold ink only on the part that contains the content. The inked part is transferred/offset to a rubber blanket and then on a printing surface. Modern offset printing machine uses computer systems to enhance quality. It is used to print any flat surface such as papers, plastic, etc. The most significant benefit of this technique is that it is cost effective and produces high-quality content. However, omissions cannot be corrected once the plates are set.

Flexography

Flexography is a commonly used printing technique used to customize content at rapid speeds. It is closely related to the traditional letterpress printing and is used in almost any type of surface. This technique utilizes flexible photopolymer printing plates that are attached on rotating cylinders. The plates are slightly raised and rotate at high speed to transfer the content on the printing surface. Flexography was extensively used in the 20th century in food packaging.

Digital Printing

Recently, digital printing has become popular due to the advancement of technology. The technique involves transferring content from a digital device to a printing surface. Unlike other traditional methods such as lithography, printing plates in digital printing are not regularly replaced. This significantly reduces the printing turnaround time and cost.

Digital printing allows for an amazing amount of variation and originality. For instance, wide format printers of up to 98″ width allow small businesses to print their output to heretofore unimagined sizes. Vinyl banner printing allows for production of vinyl banners up to 8 feet wide and up to 30 feet long. UV curable flatbed machines allow for printing directly on many surfaces from styrene to foamcore.

Printing Press Technology

Inkjet and xerography are the most popular digital printing methods.

Inkjet – It is a printing process that involves recreation of digital content by propelling small droplets of ink on a surface. Inkjet printers come in small, inexpensive devices and professional machines used on a range of surfaces such as papers, plastic, canvas, etc. The idea of inkjet printing was conceptualized in the 20th century but advanced extensively due to the development of computer technology.
Xerography – Also referred to as electrostatic imaging, it is a printing technique based on electrostatic charges. The concept was invented and patented in the mid 20th century by Chester Carlson. An electrical charge is evenly distributed on a metal cylinder known as the drum to attract toner particles that are then transferred to the printing surface. Depending on the printing surface used, Xerography provides archival durability.

Gravure

Also known as rotogravure, it is a rotary printing technique where the content to be printed is engraved on a cylinder. Through high speed, the cylinder transfers the content on the printing surface. The method is mainly used in large volume works such as newspapers.

Here at the start of the 21st century, with new electronic printing methods emerging, there has never been a better time to explore the unlimited options that print technology brings you and your business.

How to Prepare Your Files for Successful Printing

CMYK Rollers On A Printing Press, Print File Preparation

Get Your Printed Pieces Back Without Errors
You’ve spent all day – sometimes days or even weeks working on your project and when it comes back from the printer it doesn’t look like you expected it to. Sound familiar? It happens more often than you might think. In this blog post about preparing your files for successful printing we’ll cover are some easy steps you can take relating to CMYK, bleed and fonts for example ( see below ) to prevent printing problems from happening. Let us take you through some troubleshooting basics to ensure your next printing project turns out as great as you expected.

Color is Everything – CMYK

Let’s start off with color. We will use one of two processes to print your project – Full Color or Spot Color. Full Color presses use the CMYK process to create the final printed project while Spot Color uses just one ink color, the latter is mostly used when printing black ink on an envelope or something similar. More than likely your print job will need to be saved on your computer in the CMYK format. RGB color format is for use on a monitor only and the color will vary quite a bit if you save your art in RGB instead of CMYK mode, almost guaranteeing you will see a different color between what you made on your computer and the final printed piece. No matter what program you use to create your project, you should be able to easily change the color mode to CMYK. Most often it is in the Preferences section.

Color Tip: To ensure the black text in your file prints out dark instead of washed out gray, make the CMYK profile of your text 60 C 40 M 40 Y 100 K

What Do You Mean it Has to Bleed?

Bleed is a term that is used when your art has to print to the edge of the paper. In order to make this happen, we have to print the job on a larger size sheet then trim it down to the finished size. That means your art has to extend beyond the finished piece so we can trim off the excess. Adding .25 inches to the overall size of your project will ensure we can make that happen. For example: If your finished piece is 8.5”x11”, the file you send us should be 8.75’x11.25’ with the part of art going to the edge actually extending out to this new bleed area. Don’t forget to make any essential information like text stays within the finished size. A safe practice is to make sure text never gets within .25’ of the finished edge.

Why Did My Font Change?

The font you used to typeset your project might not be a font we have on our computer. Sometimes this causes the program to use a default font to replace the one missing from our system. There are two easy ways to make sure this doesn’t happen. If you are using Illustrator or a similar program, select your text and choose “Create Outlines”. If you are using Photoshop, flatten the artwork before saving. Just make sure you save the original project under a different name as both of these methods makes it so you cannot edit the text any longer.

PDF is the Way to Go

To help ensure you get a printed piece that looks correct, the file format you send should always be a PDF File. This is a universally accepted format that embeds more information into the file than most other files. Never send a file that needs to printed in the native software format i.e.; Word, Excel, Pagemaker, etc… No matter what program you use, you can save the art as a PDF.

Now that you have the basics of troubleshooting for printing problems before they happen – feel free to give us a call if you have any questions regarding print file preparation. We pride ourselves in producing high quality printing with complete customer satisfaction and would love to give you any advise to make sure that happens!

Use Your Advertising Materials At the Right Time

Don’t wait until the last minute to use or mail your advertising materials and promotional items. Send flyers and postcards to potential customers at least a month in advance. Begin to hang signs in the windows of your business or use pop-up signs on the sidewalks or along the street to capture the interest of anyone passing by your business during the week before your sale or event.

You can opt for a reusable retractable banner for your retail sale or for your brunch event. This is something that you can look at as an investment ( after all – it happens every year! ). It’s easy to stand up because it’s self-contained with the banner and a stand. It can go inside your lobby to greet people or at a host stand to let people know of an upcoming event.

With a retractable banner, you can combine graphics with text to promote various things:

– Mother’s Day Brunch
– Flower Arrangements for Sale
– Mom’s Day SALES or specials
– A unique Mother’s Day Gathering

Whatever it might be, you can say it bigger and better with a banner so everyone NOTICES it and more people can find out about it.

Idea 2 – Mom Luv You Mugs

Do you want to give mom a custom mug that has your face on it? This has been a popular Mother’s Day gift for years and one that you can easily create and have printed in time. If you’re a hotel or restaurant prepping for the holiday, you may also want to think about a giveaway where every mother gets a free mug that day as a way of celebrating the women who visit.

If you have a family brunch – imagine how happy everyone will be to receive a mug with Mom’s picture or a photo of the whole family on it!

Idea 3 – T Shirts

Celebrate mom in a fun way by having custom t-shirts made for everyone in the family (or everyone at your business). It’s a great way to theme everyone for the holiday so that mom knows that the day is dedicated exclusively for her enjoyment.

You can have her photo or we can use any artwork you supply. We can even custom design artwork especially for the occasion! Our Custom t shirt printing will make it a Mom’s Day that will be remembered the whole year through!

Idea 4 – Mother’s Day Flyers or Postcard Invites

Whether you’re promoting a Mother’s Day brunch or even a cool sale in advance of the holiday, color flyers can be printed and then distributed around town. It will be a great way to get the word out about what’s going on with plenty of room to share the details.

You may also want to consider postcards. These are smaller but can be used to mail directly to people. Mail them to your already established mailing list or buy a mailing list of your community. It may allow you to boost your sales for the holiday by tapping into a demographic that didn’t know you existed.

Print marketing is still alive and well in 2018, especially because people can pin a flyer or postcard to a bulletin board or fridge as a reminder that you have something going on.
