Promote your business with print marketing

Here are seven other good reasons to use print for your marketing. 

 

People can hold and interact with tangible printed items. This creates a stronger connection with your brand which can lead to increased brand recall. 

 

Unlike digital content, which is everywhere all the time, you will know where and when your printed content is delivered. You can target specific demographics by selecting publications or addresses that are most likely to reach your audience. Your messages are more likely to reach the right people. 

 

Print advertising can help your business stand out from the competition. Your message has a good chance of being read at a time when your target audience is interested and receptive. It’s accessible to digital natives and technophobes alike. You can set very specific budgets and measurements that will tell you about the return on investment you achieve. 

 

Readers still find printed advertising more authentic and credible than digital content. Overall printed media is seen as legitimate and trustworthy and advertisers benefit from being associated with popular publications. Statistics show that over 80% of customers trust print advertisements when making a buying decision. In contrast, there’s a growing recognition that trust in digital marketing is in decline. 

 

Social media is ‘in the moment’ and marketing content quickly disappears. If your target customers don’t respond immediately they are unlikely to search for your content later. Even if they do, they are unlikely to find it. Printed marketing material, on the other hand, is often kept for future reference and shared. An immediate response is less critical when your customers have your information to hand when they need you. 

 

Choosing the right publications for your print advertising will mean your readers are already interested in the content they receive. Whether you are targeting people with specific interests or by location, you can build brand awareness and increase recognition with a wider audience. Anyone who browses through your chosen publication will see your advertisements.

Each edition is kept and referred to time and time again, so your adverts have every chance to be seen more than once.
