Recently I had a customer tell me they weren’t interested in a custom vinyl banner for their business.  When I inquired why, he informed me that his suppliers provided him with banners for the products he used and sold.  I explained to him the problem with pre-made banners is they’re advertising those products and marketing for those brands.  Instead, your goal should be to advertise YOURSELF and brand YOURSELF!

This is the importance of custom banners.  Sure, you can also display any brand logo you’re licensed to use, but most importantly you can sell yourself to your customers.  For those potential customers that pass by your banner, do you want them to remember a product or your business name?

That’s why effective signage and banners are so important.  They help customers remember you!

Recently someone said my banners were cheap!  I was almost offended!  The price is cheap, but our banners are a bargain.  We scarifice nothing here at Bargain Banners by JON.

Our banners are of the highest quality construction.  There are several ways to make banners, and while each has it’s benefits, each has it’s drawbacks.  We prefer taped or heat welded seams.  In our experience, these hold up much better to wind.  I don’t know where you’re at (I will once you order though), but around here it gets windy!  If I had a nickle for everytime I’ve seen a sewn banner tear along the seam like perforated notebook paper I’d be a rich man.  Oh wait, I do have a nickle for everytime!  When a customer has a bad experience like that they usually switch to us!

I’ll be honest with you, banners are temporary signage (as opposed to permanantly mounted signs), but we do everything to make sure they last.  Not only do we use the strongest and best banners we can find, but the vinyl we use to letter it is always quality.  We proudly use 3M Series 50, ORACAL 651/751 (cast), and Shrinerite (made by General Formulations).  Compare that to some of our competition!  Ask them what vinyl they use and a lot them won’t tell you.  This is because they’re embrassed, they don’t know, or they buy the cheapest made imported vinyl they can find on ebay!  We’d rather spend a little more and make sure that the banner you receive won’t fail prematurely.

Our full color printed banners aren’t cheap either!  We print with solvent based ink.  Many of our competitors advertise they use UV ink. This means they’re printing with waterbased ink that has a very limited outdoor life.  Our printed banners will last up to 3 years in the sun.  Anyone that claims their’s will last longer either isn’t planning on being in business that long, or is ignorant of the inks capabilities.  We don’t deceive our customers, we treat them like friends.

Just like your vehicle, people see you everyday.  Take advantage of this fact and always dress for success.  You’ll be shocked at how often potential customers will introduce themselves to you while you’re wearing a shirt for your company.

As a small business owner you should always be wearing a company tshirt.  It’s a simple and cheap way to let potential customers see you.

Also, tshirts make a wonderful customer give-away.  Let your customers advertise for you!  The demand for free tshirts is astronomical.  Everyone loves a free tshirt.  The important thing is to give away quality tshirts that people will want to wear.  If your tshirt design is ugly, or the shirt is poor quality no one will want to wear it.  If you’re going to go cheap and give away paper thin tshirts that are meant to be undershirts……you’re wasting your money.

This is where we come in.  Whether you’re looking for one shirt or a thousand, we can help.  We only use quality heavy weight tshirts. As a matter of fact, we have a new supplier!  We’re now using tshirts that are MADE IN THE USA. Sure, we might be able to save a buck and use cheaper imported shirts, but here at Bargain Banners by JON we prefer to keep our money in our country!  The feedback we’ve been getting from our customers is great!  When our customers give their customers a shirt that is MADE IN THE USA it instantly builds their credibility and their customers know they value America.

In addition to these, we’ve recently began to offer eco-friendly tshirts.  Going green is big right now and we have two options for showing your customers you care about the environment.  We offer both organic cotton tshirts and bamboo shirts.  Bamboo is eco-friendly because it doesn’t require large amounts of pesticides and herbicides, grows quickly, and requires very little water.  Sure, these shirts are expensive, but if you want to present a great image of your company to your customer this is the way.

We don’t offer tshirts in our online store but we do make tshirts.  Email us today to discuss your tshirt needs: bargainbannersbyjon@gmail.com

In addition to banners, magnets, yard signs, and everything else we can offer you…. Bargain Banners By JON can also mass produce decals for your business or entity.  These are great give aways to your customers.

The reason this works and works well is because instead of you doing the advertising, your customers will be advertising for you!  It’s low cost and will increase your local presense!  Not to mention, it gives your business credibility.  Customers trust the opinion of other customers.  If your customers are willing enough to place your sticker on their vehicle, window, home, notebook, or anywhere else then potentional customers will trust your business.

We can make attractive stickers that are ready to apply (RTA) of your logo or your company name.  These are affordable enough to give away with every sale!  Just imagine thousands of local customers showcasing your logo!  If that isn’t high impact, I don’t know what else is.

As I’ve already discussed in previous blogs, a vehicle is seen thousands of times a day.  If your decal in on 100 cars in your city, you’ve increased your presense by two orders of magnitude!  Email us today for a custom quote on RTA decals!  bargainbannersbyjon@gmail.com
