Featured Product: Customised Queens Slipper playing cards

Custom Printed Playing cards (poker cards) are a fantastic promotional item. Why? Here's a few reasons:

• Playing cards are kept for a long time, and aren't a "throw away" item
• Many card games such as poker, involve 2+ players, exposing the brand to more than one individual each time a game is played
• Customised Playing cards make a great "collectible" item

There are many inferior poorly manufactured playing cards, however, the Queens Slipper brand are well known in Australia for being a high quality, and durable playing card.

We can now offer "adback" Queens Slipper playing cards (poker cards), custom printed with our own design on the back of every card, and packed in a printed (or unprinted) cardboard box.

VW take promotional magnets to a new level

One of the world's largest vehicle manufacturers, Volkswagen, have taken their marketing campaign for the VW Polo to a new level, utilising promotional magnets as a form of "outdoor advertising". Plenty of companys use custom printed magnets to promote their business, however in this case, VW threw in a bit of twist creating magnetic "dents" and putting them on peoples cars!

The point of this campaign was to "revive the awareness of the model (VW Polo) historically positioned for its solidity"

The campaign was effective with "more than 2000 contacts connected to this action" at VW Dealers.

This campaign supports the fact that you can use any promotional product to achieve a great impact on a shoe string budget - as long as you apply thought to the application, and a creative spin on your approach to keep the message interesting, and this case viral!

Here's the printed magnet they produced:

And here's a few examples of them on cars:[Information sources: German Car Blog , Auto Blog]
