The 5 Rs of Promotional Products
Brands have always relied on advertising vehicles to communicate with their target audiences. This traditional advertising model is built to ultimately direct the consumer path to purchase back toward the brand. To measure success, brands rely on performance metrics to evaluate the strength of the selected advertising channel.

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.
