Why Promote?
 
In “The Power of Promotional Products, by Maria Carlton and David Blaise.
the authors state:

The Power of Promotional Products comes from their ability to get an effective, targeted marketing message in front of exactly the prospects and clients you need to reach and keep it there…without the waste associated with other media.
While broadly considered to be any useful item featuring a company logo, name or advertising message, the very best promotional products don’t just brand, they generate actual, measurable results.
The four factors of Successful Promotions:

1. Audience-appropriate product.  
2. Effective marketing message.  
3. Targeted, qualified recipients.
4. The right time.

When you imprint an audience-appropriate promotional product with an effective marketing message and deliver it to a qualified group of recipients at the right time, you dramatically increase your likelihood of success.  The best promotional products advisors in the world are those who help their clients master the four factors of successful promotions."
  
At Act III Office and Marketing Solutions, our Promotional Products Counselors are trained to help you maximize the effectiveness of every promotion.

THE STRUCTURE OF THE
PROMOTIONAL PRODUCTS INDUSTRY

There are over 3000 factories in the US & Canada that are in the business of producing imprinted promotional products. Rather than market themselves individually, they have banded into a few Industry organizations.  The best known is ASI, the Advertising Specialty Institute. Within the ASI world, the factories are known as Suppliers (examples:  Bic, Bulletline, Gemline, Leeds).  Companies which market their products are known as Distributors.  The best Distributor, of course, is none other than Act III Promotional Products.
 
Many customers who become aware of the industry structure wonder why they can’t go directly to the Suppliers (factories) themselves to save money.  Most factories honor the exclusivity of the Supplier/Distributor arrangement, but some will sell directly to you.  However, they will not save you any money—when they sell Direct, they usually charge List Price or above, whereas a Distributor such as Act III actually offers many of the same products at significant savings from the official factory price.
