Over the course of the year, how many times do you have printed leaflets dropped through your letterbox advertising plumbers or any other tradesman for that matter?

The chances of you needing a plumber or an electrician at that very moment, is extremely unlikely, so the likelihood is that the leaflet is kept for a few days and then either thrown away or filed somewhere and safely forgotten!

The problem then arises when you actually need a plumber, you could have water dripping or pouring from a burst pipe or maybe your house is plunged into darkness and you need an electrician. Either way you are probably in a state of panic and can’t find that leaflet you had put through the door the other week/month.

So what would be a better way for plumbers, electricians or other tradesman to advertise their business and contact details in a way that can’t be forgotten and would be easy to find?

Magnets are becoming a very popular way to advertise. You can get custom shaped magnets or a business card type magnet. That way potential customers can put them on their fridge, notice board or the boiler and if there is ever a problem then the details are close at hand and easy to access. They are also small enough to put through letterboxes or mail out at not too much of a cost.

Magnets are not just a really good way for plumbers and electricians to advertise. They are ideal for any types of businesses who offer a service that is not required on a daily basis but could be at any time in the future. Estate agents, cleaners, gardeners and mortgage brokers are a few that spring to mind. If the magnets are custom shaped to the business type, look good and have a contact number, companies will have a really good chance of getting business from them.

So if you run any of the businesses mentioned above and you have any marketing budget remaining for the rest of this year or you are thinking ahead for your next years budget, then give Magnets a chance to promote your business.
