So, what are the 5Rs of Promotional Products?
Reach
Almost any advertising program has one primary goal: reach.
Reach is the degree to which the brand is exposed to the target audience. That
can be evaluated using some simple criteria, including frequency of exposure,
length of exposure, and the range of exposure
Recall
Promotional products have a high reach and potential for
top-of-mind recall and are an excellent medium to increase and sustain brand
awareness.
Resonance
Resonance might well be the most important benefit of
promotional items. Why? Because advertising that connects with people and
becomes part of their daily lives simply works better.
Relativity
The principle of relativity implies that customers pursue
the cost and value of various goods by comparing multiple products on the
market and evaluating sale prices. Thus, the consumer can fully assess the
value of one commodity or discount based on how it differs from the other
similar items in the economy. Additionally, buyers evaluate whether the good is
worth buying based on the original price before sale.
Reaction
In the end, it is how a consumer reacts to your advertising
effort that makes all the difference. This is true of a print ad, TV spot,
billboard, online ad, or any other marketing vehicle. It has little value if it
doesn’t generate action on the part of consumers. So, it’s critical to realize
that promotional items leave the others in the dust when it comes to sparking
interest and inspiring action.
