Gang-

Curious if anyone has had good luck with passing out calendars to your clients?

I've never done anything like this before but its an interesting idea...I'd be interested in a fairly small run, perhaps 100. So many clients say they don't have a calendar yet for the new year and it causes a delay in booking. Obviously, I'm thinking-hey-here's your calender, let's talk dates!

Thoughts?

Thanks-

Gotta spend money to make money You probably have seen my calendars on many desks!

1. Letters, mailings, references 95% effective

2. Web site 5%

Just my experience so far.

I've had a great deal of success with calanders, including from those I just recieved and began passing out. To date I have booked 90 jobs for 2009, including NYE, all of which were triggered by passing out just the first dozen 2009 calanders. I purchased the Reflections Scenic Wall Calanders Style RWC, which can be ordered from National Pen Company in quantities as little as 50. There's an additional charge for the envelopes.

Another good one is their Deluxe 4-color Monthly Pocket Planner, which sells for just .59 cents if you purchase 100.

You can find them online at www.pens.com or call them at 1-888-672-7370.

Good Luck,

Gary

That's what I've always thought, and I'm not really hurting for work, but I just wanted to research this a little and see if it would be worth it...
