note pads and printed conference
pads Printed
note pads and printed conference pads
are a universally popular way to promote almost any business. They
are inexpensive, easy to order and highly cost effective. The pads
are always welcomed and will carry your message and contact details
over a considerable period of time. Printed note pads are also commonly
used as conference pads - given away to delegates to use at the
conference and afterwards. Order

The recent massive increases
in the cost of newspaper, magazine, radio and television advertising
means that more and more companies are looking for an efficient
way of subliminally keeping their message in front of prospects
and customers, without huge expense. Combined with direct mail,
printed note pads are an inexpensive and efficient sales tool, as
well as being seen as a reward for loyalty by existing customers.
As well as small and medium
sized pads, A3 desk pads are available with a calendar strip running
along the bottom. These pads are glued along the bottom edge to
minimise curling and provide an excellent surface for note-taking
and doodling, both of which are keeping the message and contact
details in front of the user at all times.
A novel addition to the printed
pad idea is the printed mouse mat pad. This clever pad looks like
a conventional mouse mat, with rounded corners, yet has 50 tear-off
sheets, so may be used for note taking as well.
Consider the following:
1. Everyone likes a free gift
- however small.
2. Your gift will NEVER be
thrown away, just slowly used up.
3. Pads are not seen as blatant
advertising but as a useful item and a welcome gift.
4. None of us ever have enough
paper to take messages down on.
5. Recipients always look forward
to receiving another supply of pads. They almost become addictive
in their usefulness.
6. Delivering or mailing more
pads is an excellent excuse for contacting your customer or prospect
again.
7. The cost is very small compared
to the perceived value of the gift.
8. Thousands of successful
businesses cannot be wrong. Printed note pads are a very effective
way of keeping your name and contact details in front of people.
Popular Printed Note
Pad sizes Printed
Note Pads come in a range of sizes, to meet all needs and marketing
budgets. Although almost any size can be produced, the most popular
sizes are:
A7 printed note pads - 105mm
x 74mm approx. (One eighth of A4)
A6 printed note pads - 148mm
x 105mm approx.(One quarter of A4)
A4 printed note pads - 297mm
x 210mm approx.(A4 size - as letterheads)
A3 printed note pads - 420mm
x 297mm approx. (Usually used for desk pads).
Printed mouse mat pads - 50
sheets - (254mm x 210mm approx).
All printed note pads can be
produced in landscape format or portrait format - whichever style
suits your other promotional material. Although any paper colour
is available - white is the most popular.
Compare the simplicity of printed
note pads with other marketing tools. Nothing is more cost effective.
Calendars, especially attractive ones, are often redirected away
from the purchasing decision makers and can be very expensive, while
golf balls, clocks, novelties and printed mugs are often too expensive
for mass-marketing use. The cost of printed note pads can be tailored
to the market, simply by choosing a size that fits your budget.
Conference Pads
A very popular use for printed note pads is at conferences and seminars.
The usual size for conference pads is A4, which is 297mm x 210mm.
These pads are usually ruled and will always be taken home and used
by delegates, even if they are not used up at the conference or
seminar.
Smaller printed note pads are
often left in hotel rooms to encourage guests to write to friends
and relatives. Special pads with just 20 or 25 sheets can be produced.
Medical advertising One of the heaviest users of printed note pads
is the medical profession. It would be a very rare General Practitioner's
desk that did not contain a selection of printed note pads of various
sizes. If nothing else, they make an excellent excuse for a medical
representative to call on the doctor again. Centreprint
