Entrepreneurs Do-It-Yourself Marketing Month
Smaller companies usually don’t have a marketing department, and that’s why your distributor partner is so important – especially in June. Use this month to take control of your marketing efforts and gain more business and exposure with local media and potential clients. Send press releases with company news along with a logoed item. The bulk in the envelope will ensure it’s opened. Use your social media like Facebook, LinkedIn and Twitter to announce new hires. Hold rallies in local parks to publicize your firm’s community outreach efforts. We can help you pick appropriate logoed products.

Anniversary of First Drive-In Movie Theater
At their peak, there were 6,000 drive-in movie theaters in the U.S. Today there are about 600. That shouldn’t keep you from using tonight as a way to launch a community outreach program. Sponsor a local outdoor movie viewing party either on your company’s property or co-sponsor with the local community government. Provide games and prizes before the movie begins and serve attendees popcorn and soft drinks in logoed containers. Let us help you with the event, including all the giveaways you’ll need.

Friday The 13th
Paraskavedekatriaphobia is the fear of Friday the 13th, but since this is the only one in 2014, don’t fear it – celebrate it! Throw a fun, mid-year, open house for your clients and potential customers. Decorate with black colors and “unlucky” themes like black cats, broken mirrors, etc. Don’t forget to include “Jason” and other memorabilia from the movie Friday the 13th. Give guests gift bags with logoed products and reasons why it’s unlucky to not do business with your firm.

Recess at Work Day
Nothing makes kids happier than when they hear that bell for recess. Have an employee-focused event today where having fun during “work recess” is the objective. Break out into departmental teams with logoed apparel and compete in classic schoolyard games like kick the can, tag, hopscotch, kickball and more. Offer prizes like trophies and other logoed goodies.
