It is traditional to send a greeting to your customers at year end as a way of thanking them for their custom. But whether it is a Christmas greeting or a New Year’s wish it is important that you take the marketing opportunity that presents itself. Many companies opt for a wall calendar and that is an excellent choice – but a good calendar can cost a fortune and an inexpensive one can send out the wrong message about your company. So how do you achieve the happy medium? I think that we can help…

 It could be that you are looking for a calendar that offer “something different”; a promotional Christmas product that your customer hasn’t seen before. In that case you could go for a pop up calendar which not only offers the instant impact of the pop up action such as our pop-up cube shaped calendar or you might want a product which has the added appeal of being a somewhat unusual shape for a desk calendar. We have three such products – the pop up house, the Hexapop and our pop up ball.

 The Hexapop was introduced to our range in 2008 and so it is new to the Christmas market. Its overall shape is hexagonal but it is made up of twelve triangular faces – each of which can be custom printed with the dates for each of the 12 months. You might want to consider the pop-up snowflake as a variation on this Christmas idea as that product has 14 panels – 7 on each side. That gives 6 panels for January to June plus one panel for your logo or Christmas marketing message. Turn over for July to December and another marketing message!
