Dimensional Infographics generate response and action:
Is it advantageous to use infographics for a successful marketing collateral material?
One should consider using info-graphics in their marketing collateral material as a part of the 3 dimensional advertising. As advertising firms constantly intend to upgrade the kind of advertisements they prepare in order to keep attracting new customers towards the brand. From using 3D advertising to using something as basic as using info-graphics, advertising firms constantly strive to retain the impression of their brand in people’s mind. Many people are using a Magic Cubes to display their info graphics.
How has using infographics helped people?
The history of infographics for showcasing ideas and thoughts goes back to the beginning of 20th century, where brilliant philosophers were able to communicate well. Infographics has since then been used not only to give information but also to create a sense of awakening amongst the people. People who were unaware of various information regarding important things, infographics were the ideal way to give information in one image alone. The cave paintings made by the cavemen in prehistoric times is the ideal example for infographics where everything we know today about the caveman has been immortalized in the cave paintings.
Hence, since history began, information through images has been the most effective way of communicating. People simply had to view an image with related information and they would perceive the information on it.
How does infographics help marketing companies?
Marketing companies look for strategies to create that lasting impression on people’s minds about brands. This is done by using various new age technologies for advertisements like using the internet, mobile phones and until recently 3D films. But the most effective medium of communicating brand information or any information till now has been the infographics. Several marketing companies are using MagiCubes infographics in their dimensional advertising to get their marketing off the screen and into the hands of their prospects. Their marketing collateral material consists of one page or image which represents everything that the brand stands for. From providing statistics showcasing the status of the product to other brands to simply providing information on the origin of the brand, these infographics material carry it all.
How do people react to infographics being used as a part of the marketing collateral material? Is it effective?
Yes, most people who have seen a brand or any piece of information given by the government using the infographics technique have remembered the messages of the material. It has been more effective that bombarding images constantly at receivers to create a subliminal impression on people’s minds. Marketing strategists simply need to issue a single paper or give their messages in a single frame that contains all that the brand intends to communicate to people, and they will remember it. The essential component of creating a lasting impression in infographics is to understand the visual components that highlight the key messages of the advertisement. Most marketing companies hire an expert in infographics but many are experts in their own right as they use this strategy while giving presentations and slide shows.
Ultimately, it all depends on your creativity to communicate all the necessary information in a single frame without misleading the viewers. If the audience understands the key aspects of your advertisement, then, your marketing collateral material will be successful.

Dimensional Mail
When it comes to Business to Business marketing one of the key necessities is to stand out and get past the gate keepers. Reaching qualified prospects with impact is crucial. Creating a positive emotion when presenting your marketing is also very important when you want your clients and customers to remember you. Using direct marketing and now known as dimensional mail, is now offering new and creative ways to break through the media clutter.
According to the Direct Marketing Association’s Response Rate Report – You can compare any direct response medium flat direct mail with dimensional, 3D tactile mailings and see that measured responses can pull 200-300% better than flat, envelope pieces. In fact in the Direct Marketing Association’s Response Rate Report states last year, dimensional mail averaged the highest overall response rate, at 5.49 percent, of any direct response medium, according to the Direct Marketing Association’s Response Rate Report, with campaigns for some businesses yielding astronomical response rates of close to 16 percent. (The average response rate for other direct mail ast year was just 2.73 percent.)
The key to understanding dimensional mail is for one thing is that it’s not flat, and it typically arrives in a 3D Cube box or a cylindrical tube. Consumer marketers selling packaged goods, for instance, have traditionally used boxed mailings to send product samples to hundreds of thousands of consumer prospects at one time. Unfortunately, only extremely deep-pocketed companies can employ this form of sampling to reach wide consumer audiences. The good news is, when used to target business-to-business prospects; dimensional mail campaigns can be dramatically effective in producing results from small, well-qualified, prospects.
Now B2B marketers can create custom small run dimensional mailings. Not all dimensional programs are the same, and they certainly do not offer the same results. Depending on creative, and whether or not the campaing is long term or short lived. But most importantly, one objective is clear. Engage your prospect with information that is delivered in a fun and playful medium.
Here are some ideas for creating a 3D dimensional marketing campaign:
1. Pre-qualify your list. Because mail that arrives in a box can be hard to resist, dimensional mailings are rarely discarded or opened by screeners, making them a great way to get your sales materials seen–and noticed–by your prospects. And although dimensional mail has a higher per-unit cost than simple flat mail, the cost for your overall campaign can be kept within modest bounds by mailing hand-delivering your boxes. It’s therefore critical to get your mailings in the right hands. Create a 3D item that creates multiple impressions, engages the audience and tells a story.
Begin by reviewing your company’s database and selecting your top B2B prospects. Do everything you can to clean and pre-qualify your prospects list, including making multiple phone calls to each business on the list until you’re satisfied you’ve found exactly the right decision-makers.
2. Create a memorable campaign. In order to open doors or move prospects further along in the sales cycle, your dimensional mail pieces have to be clever and demonstrate how you’ll meet your prospects’ needs. So tie your campaign in with your company’s overall marketing and advertising campaign.
What should you put in your box? It all depends on the message you want to convey. Just be sure the object is something your prospects will want to keep, and even display, for a while. Avoid overdone advertising specialty items, such as imprinted mugs, and go for something unique. For example, a Washington-area speechwriter once sent a “relaxation kit” to targeted decision-makers at major PR firms. His box included an aromatherapy candle and a neck pillow with his logo on it, along with clever, illustrated instructions on how to use the kit for maximum relief–and the message imparted was that hiring him would relieve the stress of too much work. So take some time to think about just what objects would work with your primary message–and what objects your clients would find unique or useful.
3. Make follow-up a top priority. In most cases, the primary purpose of dimensional mail is to capture the attention of prospects and open the lines of communication. That makes immediate follow-up within one to three business days essential. If your dimensional mail is successful, it’ll warm up your prospects and make them more receptive to your phone call. Of course, with the high response rate of dimensional mail, if your campaign is truly effective, prospects will soon be contacting you.

Case Study: How to Make Your Proofs Go Viral and Increase Sales
Challenge: Advancements in technology have traditionally allowed for “virtual proofs” – those 2D images with a logo on a generic product. This may work for standard “Logo Only” style products with one- or two-colors, but what about custom desktop items that have full color, full bleed, and are interactive and 3D? Further, with the global nature of business – trade shows and offices spread out around the globe – sharing proofs and getting approvals from multiple buyers can slow down production, and increase delivery time and prices.
Until recently, the only way to show a proof or a spec sample of a desktop item was to create a complete pre-production sample – a sure way to eat up a good portion of a client’s budget while increasing the production time by several weeks. Further, looking at a proof on paper or even in a PDF can, well, fall flat when a distributor’s buyer is reviewing a proof. “Our challenge was to find a way to not only showcase the various manipulations of the MagiCubes®, but also help distributors increase their sales,” says Ron Friedman, Founder, PTI Corp, owner of MagiCubes® brand of 3D folding advertising puzzles.
Solution: MagiCubes® offers free 3D videos for both proofs and specs in as fast as one or two days. Since these desktop items are always 100% custom, showcasing the promotional item via a video proof allows clients to interact with the simulated product in the same way as if they were actually physically interacting with the product. For example, buyers can inspect a 3D product by watching a quick video to view all designs on the cube. Since most MagiCubes® have nine to 20 panels, this is very efficient compared to reviewing nine to 12 static pages of a PDF proof.
Using specific MagiCubes.com templates, the clients simply place their custom images and text on the template. We then put the artwork through a very sophisticated 3D rendering process to create the video proof. In fact it’s the same technology and same software used by Hollywood Studios and Madison Avenue Ad Agencies for creating 3D motion graphics.
Upon completion, the video is uploaded to Youtube.com. We upload them as private, and they are only available to view with the specific link we provide. The Video Channel is safe and is not branded. The videos have a voice over track that explains that the video itself is a proof, and the buyer should carefully review for copy and image orientation, etc. Distributors can choose to use their own voice and logo branding on the videos they share with their clients.
Results: 3D virtual proofs are eco- and budget-friendly, and, in many cases, increase sales. Friedman shares a recent example: “Distributor Bob Levitt sent in an order for 1,500 MagiCubes. Shortly after we sent the video proof to Bob, he forwarded it to his corporate buyer, who, in turn, re-distributed the 3D video proof to the company sales team around the world. The original order was 1,500 pieces, a $5,000 value. In the end, the order increased from $5,000 to $12,000.”
Adds Levitt, the V.P. of Sales for Tangerine Promotions [Now CEO @ Brandsavvy Promotions], “Being able to provide such a quality proof in video format via a simple link, which could then be emailed to various department heads, was the key to tripling the order quantity. Usually, I am only provided one or two physical proofs, which are kept under wraps with the primary buyer. But with the 3D video system, I am able to get this product proof presented to multiple recipients in the far corners of globe in less time than it takes to drive through my Coffee Bean for a latte. Within hours after I circulated the video link, I received a call from my client that not only was the proof approved, but yet another sales manager who viewed the video wanted to increase his allotment. After all was said and done, that week I received two more calls from the same buyer to keep increasing the order quantity. That video proof in effect doubled my commissions. I love when technology works ‘for’ you.”
The 3D video proof of the promotional item went viral throughout the client’s management resulting in substantial new business. Having a link that corporate buyers can forward is like having the video be the “inside rep” for the distributor. See the actual videos proofs here- https://3d.magicubes.com/custom-samples

Promotional products are given to potential customers, current clients; business associates and employees so choose products that are needed and have an impact. Therefore, it is important to choose the correct promotional products that appeal to your targeted audience and effectively help your business image. What should you consider when choosing promotional products?
Although the item’s cost will probably influence your selection the most, the amount you are willing to spend on promotional items is determined by who is receiving the item, the purpose of distribution, where the item will be distributed, the image you want to present to the recipient, and how the item suits the business.
If it will be given to many potential clients, the item will need to be inexpensive, useful, and distinctive so it stands out especially if participants of a conference or meeting will be receiving promotional items from competing businesses. Pens are one of the most popular promotional items for these events. They vary in prices, colors and sizes so there is always a style that will suit your business. Additionally pens can be displayed clustered together and can be purchased with added features like highlighters, flashlights, or reading lights to make them more unique. Other inexpensive promotional items are magnifying glasses, key rings, phone cradles and flashlights.
Consider the importance tying the product to your business through its appearance or with a slogan. Choose a promotional item, your audience will use so they remember your company name.
Promotional items given in an intimate setting usually cost more. An existing client who is already satisfied with your company’s work perceives the company’s image as strong. When giving him a promotional item, choose one that adds value and reinforces the image your hard work and company name have already earned. Wine, paper weights, or well made pen sets are popular.
When giving employees promotional items, your purpose may be to encourage company visibility, reward the employee or welcome a new hire. Shirts with company logos are popular and are often worn inside and outside the company. Items can be tailored to the nature of the job. Employees expected to travel may receive overnight bags or computer cases while office workers may be given desk accessories or coffee mugs. Employees receiving promotional products as a reward for good or long service are likely to receive more luxurious items like I-pods, clocks, paperweights, or golf umbrellas. in the UK visit the bpma sourcing site.

It is clear that promotional products provide return on investment. The important factor is matching up the right product with the event or sale you are hosting or attending. Like all advertising expenditures, you want to have your promotional products work hard to stretch that advertising budget as far as possible.
Another primary concern is use of the promotional space available on the products you select. Imprinting, embroidery, embossing and etching are used to brand items with your company or product name. Additional items to include in your imprint design are contact information, images or text messages. When using smaller items, such as lanyards, pens or flash drives, it is important to keep the design clear and concise. Readability and visibility are two other aspects of imprinting message that you want to consider.
Always try to err on the side of too much when calculating quantities. It is better to have extras for use around the office or with new customers than to have people go away unhappy because they did not get the promotional item you advertised for an event. You can save money with quantity discounts, and there are times you may want to repeat the same offer with the same promotional products. Order enough at the beginning to last for all events set out in your advertising plan.
Business is the name of the game with promotions. You are using promotional products as a drawing card to bring in traffic to your booth, show, grand opening, or other marketing event. If there is a way to tie in the gift with a purchase or inquiry, it will give you an opportunity for making a sale. Your investment can be considerable, so there is merit in making that investment pay off.
Promotional products will give you an edge over the competition every time. Use them at trade show booths to keep traffic coming and returning to your booth all day long. If there is a choice between your booth with gifts and the competitor’s booth without gifts, guess who will be getting the traffic all day long?
Customers and clients enjoy receiving promotional products. There are hundreds of thousands of products from which to select and most are very durable and useful. These are keys to longevity and what makes your advertising budget stretch out well beyond the horizon of time. As long as the promotional item is in use, your advertising message will be out there communicating for your business.
Use the imprint area to your best advantage. Be sure to include your company name or product name. This is what will differentiate your business from all the others and help to give your business an edge over the competition. Branding the promotional products is very important and should be given a bit of thought in the design stage. Do not crowd the imprint area with a lot of text. Keep your message clear and concise and use colors to enhance message visibility. Your specialty printer should have staff that is experienced in design to help you with your imprint message creation.
On a grand opening or special sale day, your business can get that important edge over the competition by promoting the event and the promotional product give away opportunity. Use photos and include information in the advertising for your event. For ongoing promotions, create gift sets that your customers can acquire one at a time, at each sale or event. For example, if you are giving away silverware, you could present a simple fork, knife, and spoon set at one sale, and follow that up at subsequent events with additional sets or larger table serving implements.
Try to estimate to your best ability a count of how many promotional items you will need for an event, or for multiple planned events. Order a sufficient quantity and some extras for use at the office. Employees also appreciate token gifts from time to time, and you can use them with new clients, customers or suppliers as needed.
Promotional products will give you an edge over the competition and should be used liberally to expand the reach of your advertising budget.
The goal of most marketing campaigns is always to attract new clients. After all, every business has to start somewhere, and bringing potential clients in the door is always the first step to building a successful business. However, bringing in first time clients is only one part of the process. The key to longstanding business success is not only reaching new clients, but keeping first time clients around and turning them into loyal, lifelong customers. One smart way to do this is with promotional products. Promotional products are simple marketing tools that are designed to provide customers with a functional reward for patronage. However, their purpose does not end there. To the contrary, promotional products are also specially designed to promote the business, often by printing a business name or logo on the product so it serves as a strong advertising tool. Promotional products can range from simple pens to more upscale wall clocks, and can be chosen to reflect a business’s goal and services. Just consider the possibilities. For newer clients, who are just trying out a business, providing a small promotional product, such as a pen or notepad, can be an easy and affordable way to make sure that they do not forget their experience as a client. Therefore, when it comes time to seek such services again, the client is more likely to give the business a second try. A relatively new client needs to be reminded as often as possible of the services and benefits of a business, so a promotional product can work perfectly for just such a scenario. Promotional products can also be a fantastic way to turn casual clients into loyal patrons. For this style of marketing, it might be wise to invest in a slightly higher end promotional product, such as distinguished coffee mugs or useful flash drives. Such rewards are likely to speak volumes to these customers, making them feel valued and important, which is a critical key in ensuring that they will never see the need to shop elsewhere. Overall, promotional products can clearly be an important part of retaining and building a strong client base. Such options are affordable and versatile, and can be catered to reflect any number of business goals and services. With so many possibilities, all marketing departments should be sure to consider using promotional products as a key tool in their advertising campaigns.
