Marketing your Business during Storm Season

As we all know, storm season can bring a variety of natural phenomena from intense winds to violent rains. Unfortunately these storms can cause a plethora of damage to homes, commercial buildings and everything in between. The need for services such as roof repair, flood control and clean up, window repair, lawn services and even pest control will rise during these times of the year.

There is not a better time for companies to get their names out on the street! The only issue with using print advertising during a wicked storm is you need materials that will be able to withstand Mother Nature in all her glory.

How to beat the weather…

Luckily for all of you humble business people; there are several items and things you can do to advertise your product or service without losing everything to the wind and/or rain. Below are just a few tips of advice to get started.

1. Using heavy duty materials: Instead of using standard sized h-wires to hold up your corrugated plastic yard signs, try using our heavy duty h-wires. They will be able to withstand much more than their smaller cousins.

2. Advertise with door hangers: Usually the front door to a home or apartment is sheltered from the wind or rain hitting it directly which makes it a safer place to hang a door hanger with all of your contact information and what you’re offering.

3. When you need to get the word out fast, use magnetics: If a large storm suddenly hits your town and the product or service is something of use, it is important you get your name out there ASAP. What better way to do that with car magnets. You drive around anyways; why not use the company car as an advertising venue?

4. Vinyl it up: Vinyl Banners are incredibly durable and weatherproof making it perfect for use both outdoors and in. Hang it up with some bungee cords that will allow some pull for the wind and you’re golden. We now have the option to add wind slits; perfect timing, we know.

5. Flyer Boxes or InfoPaks: What better ways to keep important sales information dry than to use a weatherproof flyer box or an InfoPak? These two items will keep papers safe from flying away and will keep them nice and dry during wet days.

Thank you very much.  I got my sign, and my boss and everyone had only good comments to say about the sign. I will let you know if I need anything else.  My boss might have another sign for you to make in the future.
