Stand Out with Unique Promotional Calendars

As one of the most popular promotional products, calendars are also incredibly versatile. There are so many different styles to choose from. From the standard desktop or pocket calendars to the interactive, technology-driven calendars, it’s easy to find something to make your brand blow the competition away. Here are just a few examples of what is possible in the promotional calendar category nowadays:

Laminated Yearly Calendar
View the entire year at once, and note important dates with the included dry erase marker that wipes clean when changes need to be made. With a huge imprint area, this promotional calendar is bound to be noticed.

Word-a-Day Calendar
This 13-month custom calendar is perfect for anyone interested in expanding his or her vocabulary. Made of glossy paper, it’s visually appealing as well as interactive and fun. It features a new word each day from the Merriam-Webster dictionary, so you can be sure recipients will interact with and appreciate this unique wall calendar.

Flower Bouquet Desk Calendar
If you’re looking for a truly one-of-a-kind promotional calendar, this is it! It looks like a decoration, but is in fact a calendar featuring a flower for every month and a vase imprinted with your logo – a definite conversation piece.

DIY Projects Wall Calendar
It may look like your average wall calendar, but this promotional calendar actually includes a do-it-yourself video for each of the 12 months. Simply scan each month’s photo with the Pixaction App (free to download), and watch the videos instantly. An invaluable gift for first-time home buyers!

Buy Promotional Calendars Early!

The early bird gets the worm! There are major advantages to buying promotional calendars early in the year including better pricing, selection and visibility for your brand. The best time to shop for custom calendars is actually mid-year (around the summer months) when the selection is vast and the pricing is low.

In addition to finding the best deals this time of year, shopping early also puts you ahead of the competition. If your company is the first to deliver a promotional calendar, it is more likely to be used by the recipient. Think about it… people like to write in calendars both for personal and professional reasons. Once they start adding information by hand, they would be disinclined to switch it out for another one later on.

So shop early and deliver early for the best chance of getting eyeballs on your brand all year long!
