Product Description
How to create a successful promotional product campaign for any business

According to award-winning direct marketer Mitch Carson, business owners and marketers should understand the value of using promotional items for business growth, and how to create successful promotional product campaigns. In The Silent Salesmen, Carson introduces his proven, simple promotional product strategies that are guaranteed to increase sales and profits. Business owners and marketers will discover step-by-step tips on how to develop and implement a versatile marketing plan that encompasses ready-to-use samples of sales materials paired with unique and memorable promotional products. Combined, these tools will make for an extremely effective (and profitable) marketing message.

From the Inside Flap

The effectiveness of promotional pro-ducts is well documented. Research shows that customers—both new and old—who receive promotional products return sooner and reorder more quickly and more frequently than those who receive no promotional incentives. And because the products are useful to and appreciated by the recipients, they are retained and used, repeating the imprinted message many times—like silent salesmen—without added cost to the advertiser. In The Silent Salesmen, direct marketing expert Mitch Carson introduces proven, simple promotional product strategies guaranteed to increase sales and profits.

Carson's comprehensive study of sales promotion will help you develop a personalized program for a variety of objectives. He provides step-by-step advice on developing your own marketing plan and a comprehensive advertising campaign for any budget. He also offers his expertise on trade shows and reveals how to maximize your participation and use promotional products to enhance your image in your community. He shares his personal collection of trusted resources to eliminate all the guesswork in putting your plan into action. In addition, Carson offers a wealth of real-life success stories about how the creative use of promotional products dramatically impacted the bottom lines of companies both large and small.

The Silent Salesmen promises to transform the way businesses promote their services and improve their bottom lines—whether they are owner-run microbusinesses, mom-and-pop retail outlets, local service providers, or even independent salespeople.?Whether you're looking for a way to use promotional products to motivate your staff, generate more business, encourage customer referrals, increase trade-show traffic, introduce a new product, or support your community, The Silent Salesmen will show you how.
