As eCommerce expands, many large-scale businesses are switching to digital marketing outlets. Small-scale retail stores with limited marketing budgets can’t afford to undergo these expensive digital transformations. So, is it all bad news for brick-and-mortar outlets? Will eCommerce takeover their business? No.
According to a recent study, physical retail will continue to be the most important sales channel for the foreseeable future. The same applies to physical marketing tools. Banner stands, posters, custom-printed flags, and other print marketing materials will continue to be vital promotional tools for small-scale businesses.
The most important marketing tool for small-scale businesses is custom-printed retractable banner stands. Most store owners place their custom-printed banner stands at the entry points of their stores. These stands are always the first visual contact customers receive at the store. Smart business owners even use these stands at exhibitions or tradeshows.
Here are four creative ways business owners use custom-printed banner stands to promote their brands –
- Install Multiple Banner Stands Across the Store
Banner stands are great at showcasing brands inside busy retail zones. Plus, these marketing tools are surprisingly affordable. Even small-scale business owners with limited marketing budgets can order a bunch of these stands without spending too much money. They can order multiple banner stands, each with different customizations, and set them up inside different parts of their stores.
If you don’t purchase multiple banner stands, consider decorating them with accessories like lighting systems. Even with these additional accessories, the overall costs of your custom-printed banner stands will still be relatively low.
- Display Exciting Brand-Related Artwork
The cost-efficiency of customizable banner stands makes them the perfect tool for displaying your brand’s creativity. Custom-print multiple banners, each with different designs to depict the aesthetic appeal of your brand. You can get single-sided or double-sided banners. Double-sided banners feature two graphics panels, so there’s plenty of printing room for you to incorporate aesthetic brand-related designs.
- Display the Banner Stands in Different Locations
Small business owners don’t invest in expensive digital marketing campaigns. They don’t have constant streams of inflowing customers. They have to market their brands wherever the crowds are. Thankfully, customizable banner stands are very easy to transport. Business owners can install these promotional tools at tradeshows, outside sports events, busy malls, and other public spaces.
This mobility makes it easier for business leaders to generate mass awareness about their brands. Plus, the best customizable banner stands feature highly durable fabrics. No matter where you install your custom-printed banner stands, they will resist external weather damages (wind, rainfall, etc.).
- Easy Promotions at Marketing Events
Customizable banner stands are very easy to install and uninstall. Brand leaders only get a few minutes to set up their promotional tools at busy tradeshows and marketing events. Setting up retractable banner stands only takes a few minutes. A solo operator can easily set up a banner stand within minutes without requiring any special tools.
This feature of custom banner stands makes them ideal tools for event promotions. Set up the banner stands, attract people’s attention, and move on to the next event!
