Traditional print advertising in the new U.S. marketplace

Though advertising is increasingly being carried out via digital media, the notion that printed advertising is disappearing as a result couldn’t be more wrong.



In today’s multimedia world, it’s vital that advertisers build an overall ‘brand experience’, and traditional promotional methods have a great role to play here, as part of an overall media campaign that combines digital, television and radio, and printed materials produced by a professional print company.



Take, for example, a beverage that is trying to maintain or grow its position in the marketplace. There are numerous ways it can be promoted. A social media campaign can reach many people, and this can be combined with television advertisements and printed items, such as stickers, T-shirts, and lanyards to build the brand and keep it growing strong. If the company chooses to sponsor events, a printing company will be able to produce advertising flyers, signage, beverage cups, and even specially printed tickets carrying the company’s logo. The brand quickly becomes associated with good times and having fun.



The overall goal is to make people feel good about using the product, and this can take different forms depending on what it is. For some, this means making them feel that they are using something that’s new and cutting edge, while for others, it can mean helping them make a safe and dependable choice.



Designing a company’s promotional materials may sound like a daunting task, but print companies can help. They will be able to assist with the process, making it go smoothly and successfully.
