Technologo Virtual Sample Tools Integrated into Logomall Websites and ESP On-Line

June 3rd, 2006

Technologo Virtual Sample Tools Integrated into Logomall Websites and ESP On-Line
Technologo has reached an agreement with ASI to provide virtual sample functionality to ESP On-Line users at no additional cost to the user and for a small subscription fee ($9.99 per month) on Logomall Websites. We are absolutely thrilled with this agreement.

Alex Landa, CEO and founder of Technologo, commented “We are pleased to provide the highest-quality virtual sampling tools available in the promotional products industry. Westarted offering this technology in 2001 and have watched its popularity grow quickly, because users find it so productive for their business operations. This next step will further entrench virtual samples into the mainstream of the industry. I am sure that Technologo’s clients and users will benefit greatly from this development.”

Below are some of the highlights of the Press Release from May 24, 2006:

“Advertising Specialty Institute (ASI), the largest media organization serving the promotional products industry, announced today it will be providing virtual sampling services for the 23,000 users of ESP Online and will also make it available for buyers on nearly 7,000 LogoMall Websites.”

“All ESP Online users will have access to Technologo EOD (Enabled on Demand), allowing them to build a virtual sample of any product with an image in the products database. Users can make the sample in either the product detail section or by using the CenterStage(TM) Presentation Builder.”

“Distributors will be able to integrate the Enabled on Demand service into their LogoMall Websites, allowing buyers of promotional products to use virtual sampling to envision their logos on products they are purchasing. This technology will provide buyers with a more dynamic, interactive and professional shopping experience on LogoMall Websites.”

ASI members already using virtual sampling tools are sharing their positive experiences:

“A client of ours was hosting a casino-themed event, and asked us to find products with a tie-in,” said Ed Burgess, co-owner of Weekend Warrior Promotional Products (asi/356446). “Using ESP Online, we saved an image of a poker chip. Then, using Technologo, we were able to upload our saved image, add the client’s logo and text, and then email a virtual sample. We were able to speak immediately with him about the sale. Integrating this feature directly into ASI products will provide an amazingly powerful tool.”

“As a supplier, we’re giving our distributors the tools to make their sales jobs easier,” said Theresa Land, sales manager for Pacific Handy Cutter, Inc. (asi/75650). “They build a virtual sample in minutes, and set up personalized presentation materials for their clients. We’re being rewarded with their orders.”

Boost Company Sales with Advertising Specialties

May 25th, 2006

Looking for a way to increase your company sales? There is an easy solution. By using advertising specialties such as promotional products that contain your company’s logo and message you can increase sales and gain customer appreciation that can easily result in more sales and referrals.

A study done by the Promotional Products Association International gave some powerful insight into how clients and potential customers react by receiving advertising specialty items:
# 55% of people questioned said they keep their promotional products for more than 1 year.
# 76.1% of respondents could recall the advertiser’s name on the promotional product that they had received within the past 12 months.
# 75.4% of respondents said they kept their promotional products because they were useful.

H&M Advertising, www.hmadvertising.net, based in Martinsburg, WV learned that many years ago and after being in business for 34 years it continues to bring in more clients and repeat orders. Local business’s love to get imprinted custom gifts, pens, pencils, business cards, executive gifts, keychain’s, customized shirts and other promotional items. A great way to get new business is to give the potential client a sample item that has their logo already on it. Its always nice to see what your own logo would like on the specialty item than just a random one, but the random logo sample definitely works too.

Corporate gifts for employees is also important. Studies show that employees like to be rewarded for their hard work and they should. Promotional products can be used as awards such as desktop accessories, electronics, apparel, or glassware items with the company logo on it. The holidays are also a good time to award employees for their work and dedication, Christmas time is the perfect example. Its always a good idea to award all of your employees for the work they have done throughout the year. A simple item such as a coffee mug with your logo on it is a great corporate gift idea and employees enjoy getting the gifts to show that they are appreciated and it helps if its something different every year.

In closing, promotional products can encourage an increase in your companies sales, reorders and also customer and employee appreciation.
