WHAT IS A FILLER?
A filler is ANYTHING Rated "G" that you choose to use to advertise your business and send to someone else to pass out for you.
If someone asks you to send them fillers, they want your, SAMPLES, discount coupons, pens, pencils, magnets, key chains, or buttons, and the list goes on & on, anything of that nature Rated "G" that promotes your company. You can send them whatever you choose. You can make up cute little gift bags and put a business card & a coupon in there for first time customers, you can even add hard candy or some small samples to your bags, if you have them. If all you have is fliers or brochures you can send those.
You can special wrap small candy, or popcorn bags, even mini bubbles too with your business info on them and send them in, or you can add them to fun Cello bags, and turn them into mini presents. There are many many ways that you can do this. Visit Cello In A Box for more fun filler & gift wrapping ideas.
You just have to be creative and make yours stand out above everyone elses.
We add between 12 - 15 businesses to each bag we fill, and then we hand them out all over town, at craft fairs, boutiques, flea markets, farmers markets & expos plus they also get handed out to all the Az. Book Exchange & Swapphoenix.com swap meet up members during their swaps. Many of our group members also take them with them to the different boutiques & craft shows they work around town. They also get handed out to the staff and patients at Dr’s visits, to our bank tellers, even the grocery store clerks.
FUN IDEAS YOU CAN USE TO PROMOTE YOUR COMPANY:
THINK SEASONAL: What would YOU like to see in a bag full of goodies, if someone handed a bag to you? Summer time is here, so how about a Frisbee, suntan lotion, a beach ball, a visor or some bubbles. Would you like a bag full of coupons, or maybe some fun samples and some GREAT scents, (if you sell candles, or costmetics) maybe even a new pen to write with, we can never have to many, Wrap up a pencil with a piece of ribbon, and attach your business card to it. What about a mouse pad, or some sticky notes. Samples, samples and more samples, calendars, how about some business card magnets or a notepad, large magnets, a koozie, how about a hat, or a tote bag you can take that tote bag roll it up tight and put some ribbon around it, that tote bag will go much further than that postcard or flyer, as will the small sticky notes they will now see your name each time they use it, and who can’t use a new key ring, or how about some fun buttons.
The possibilities are endless, our bags are 12 x 18 x 3 so we have plenty of room to move. Be creative and use your imagination, we will accept any piece of promotional advertising as long as it is rated "G"
And, always remember, think about what YOU would like to find in a bag, if it was handed to you and put that smile into yours.
