Enhance
your website promotion efforts by advertising on your car.
Think about it, car
decals make sense.
You’re out there on
the road anyway; you’ve got to be, right? It costs you time and
money every time you drive your car. Why not get a return on
those costs by advertising your small business with a tasteful
looking WebDecal?
WebDecals are so
easy to use, all you have to do is clean your window and apply.
When was the last
time you DIDN'T read a bumper sticker or decal on the car in
front of you? Put a short advertising message and your website
address or phone number in front of other drivers.
Even when parked,
you'll still be advertising your business.
How Many Miles Do You Drive Each Day?
Each Week? Each Year?
And how many
other people do you think share the road with you? There could
be hundreds, possibly thousands, over a full year.
Imagine all those
people seeing YOUR website address graphically displayed on the
window, body or bumper of your vehicle and seeing it everyday,
everywhere you go.
The web is
crowded and it's hard to attract attention to your site with
millions of other sites online. Take advantage of all that free
exposure offline just like commercial businesses have been doing
for years and turn your car into a driving billboard for your
business with a top-quality WebDecal.
We have no
minimum order quantities so you don't have to place an order of
100 or more to get a custom printed WebDecal. You can order just
one.
Got a website?
Got a car?
Then drive sales
while you're doing all that driving around!

funniest bumper stickers?), progressive bumper stickers (uh,
yeah, cool, man!), bumper stickers funny and humorous, classic
bumper stickers (with Mozart or what?), enviromental bumper
stickers, promotional bumper stickers, stickers with any bumper
stickers sayings (wow, what a genius idea)
This is the kind of business that might grow out of a
conversation over a couple of beers at your favorite tavern.
Imagine for a moment this scenario: Someone suggests that the
owner should sponsor a summer picnic or softball game. The
question then comes up as to how to advertise it, and someone
suggests bumper stickers. And the basics of a very lucrative
business are set in motion.
As you consider this idea for a source of income,
your first decision will be whether to first line up people
willing to "wear" the bumper stickers on their cars, or the
business owners who will want to advertise in this manner.
A good friend of ours started such a business several
years ago, and he found it easier to sell the business owner by
telling him that 100 to 200 people were all set and willing to
wear his bumper sticker advertisement, because such people were
known to be in the area.
All this boils down to a recommendation that you talk
to your friends, neighbors and co-workers first. Get as many of
them as you can to agree to "wear" a bumper sticker. You might
offer to pay them $10 for three months, or $5 for six weeks .
With induce ment of money just to put a bumper sticker on their
cars or trucks, you won't have too many turndowns. One person we
know runs an ad in his weekly shopper newspaper, advertising the
fact that he pays money just for "wearing" a bumper sticker. And
of course, don't overlook the pulling power of all the bulletin
boards in your area businesses.
This is an ideal business for constant free publicity
write-ups in your local newspapers, plus interviews on radio and
TV talk shows. At first, you'll want as many people as possible
to "wear" bumper sticker ads. What you'll want to stress in any
publicity write-ups or media interviews is the fact that you've
got the "vehicles for exposure" lined up and organized so that
any potential advertiser needs only to give you a call, and you
can launch his advertising program immediately.
Next, you check with a number of printers and
determine the cost to have bumper stickers made to order.
Generally, you should be able to get a thousand bumper stickers
for $100 or less. Whatever the cost, this initial outlay should
be absorbed by your charge to the advertiser.
So let's suppose you've got 100 people lined up to
"wear" one of these bumper stickers on their cars for six weeks.
Figure the bumper stickers will cost $100. Now, the problem of
what to charge the advertiser.
You should always charge on a "per car" basis, i.e.,
on a basis of circulation, as newspapers do. So, you could
charge $5 per car per week, with 100 cars. This comes out to
$500 per week, or $3,000 total over six weeks, from the
advertiser. Subtract $100 for getting the bumper stickers made,
and $500 as payment for the cars "wearing" the bumper stickers,
and you would end up with a profit picture of $2,400 for those
six weeks.
In the beginning, you should be the one calling on
potential advertisers and doing all the selling. Once you've got
your first program organized and running smoothly, your next
step is a natural multiplication of your efforts. Run an ad in
your local paper for commission sales people. Brief them on the
basics and get them out on the street selling advertisers for
you.
The best time to launch a business of this kind is
during the fair weather seasons, or just in advance of general
political elections in your area. Once established, however, the
business can, and should sustain itself year round.
The selling "keys" to this kind of advertising are
basically the same as those enumerated for "word of mouth"
advertising. You've got people all over town spreading the word
- talking about the advertiser. And these people are saturating
the area with the advertiser's name and message wherever they
go.
It's easy! It's simple! And it works! Compared with
other, more traditional advertising methods, bumper sticker
advertising is very low in cost.
One of the tricks of the trade is in using short,
snappy, even humorous slogans or telegram styled messages. For
instance: Anderson's Cafe - 6th and Main - That's where I'm
going - How about you? Another idea is to make the lettering on
the bumper stickers luminous to the headlights of the cars
following. Most important, be sure to make your lettering easy
to read, and the message easy to comprehend at one glance.
Actually, you could start at the front of the yellow
pages in your phone book and probably never run out of places
ready to be sold on your plan of bumper sticker advertising.
Some of the more traditional places to sell this kind of
advertising include:
- TavernsPizza Houses
- Flea MarketsPhysical Fitness Clubs
- Political CampaignsNewspapers
- Radio & TV StationsInsurance Companies
- Appliance RepairTravel Agencies
- Movie TheatersSporting Goods
- Auto Repair ShopsTrade Schools
- Special Local Events
The important thing is to always be creative in your
selling efforts. Always show the prospect how his business can
grow from advertising in the manner you propose, and how your
method is more positive, more responsive, and lower in cost than
the more traditional advertising.
Remember, too, the more clever or "catchy" the
message on the bumper sticker, the more it will make people talk
and respond. For ideas along these lines, go back to the yellow
pages of your telephone book and read all those short, crispy
one-liners .
Remember also that advertising is a form of
"brainwashing" and the more people see the message, the stronger
that message is imprinted in their minds. Therefore, when they
need or are in the market for the services or product offered by
the advertiser, they'll quickly refer to the strongest,
easiest-to-recall advertising message in their minds. And that,
of course, means that if the prospect sees a specific
advertising message on the bumpers of the cars in front of him
day after day, when he's ready to buy, that particular
advertiser will be the one he will patronize.
You can expand this business to include magnetic
signs on the sides of cars, saddle-back signs on the back of
cars, and even signs in the yards in residential neighborhoods.
As I've explained in this report, line up your "method of
exposure," deter mine your costs and then go after the
advertisers. It can be a very easy way to achieve real wealth
and independence for yourself!

Bucks With Bumper Stickers

As you experience success with your bumper sticker advertising
business,
BIG BUCKS WITH BUMPER
STICKERS
As the number of
automobiles on the road increases, and as drivers are forced to
spend more time in their cars and trucks commuting back and
forth between home and office, the bumper sticker is becoming an
item of greater visibility. The car ahead of you in traffic
challenges you to "Ask About My Grandchildren," "Support Your
Local Police Force," or informs you that the driver's child is
an honor student at the local elementary school. While political
candidates have long used the bumper sticker to proclaim their
worthiness for public office, business has been slow to make use
of this powerful and inexpensive form of advertising. The bumper
sticker business is one that can be established with a minimum
investment and can easily adjust itself to any circumstance.
Bumper stickers can
either be sold to existing businesses as a method of
advertising, or they can feature political, social or comic
sayings that express the driver's individual feelings and sold
wholesale to retail outlets. As you consider the income
potential of this endeavor, your first decision will be whether
you want to sell advertising stickers to businesses or if you
would rather develop a line of stickers for retail sales.
If you choose to sell
bumper stickers as advertising, first determine if you will line
up people who are willing to "wear" the bumper stickers on their
car as advertising showplaces, or if you will first line up the
business owners who want to advertise in this manner. A good
friend of ours started such a business several years ago, and he
found it easier to sell a business owner on the new service by
telling him that 100 to 200 people were all set and willing to
wear his bumper sticker advertisement. An owner who knows that
his message is ready to be flashed across town will be easier to
convince than one who has to visualize the end result sometime
down the road.
We recommend that you
first establish your advertising showcase. Talk to your friends,
neighbors and coworkers. Get as many of them as possible to
agree to "wear" a bumper sticker. You might offer to pay them
$10 for 3 months or $5 for 6 weeks. Gather a group of college
students together--members of a fraternity or sorority--and
offer to donate the money to their organization if each member
will place one of your advertisements on his bumper for a
semester.
With the inducement of
money just to put a bumper sticker on their cars or trucks, you
won't have too many refusals. One person we know runs an ad in
his weekly shopper's newspaper advertising the fact that he pays
money just for "wearing" a bumper sticker. Also, don't overlook
the pulling power of all the bulletin boards in your area. It
shouldn't be difficult to arrange for several hundred drivers to
place a bumper sticker on their cars for a three-month time
span.
Next, check with a number
of printers in your area and determine the cost of having bumper
stickers made to order. Generally, you should be able to get
1,000 bumper stickers for approximately $200. Whatever the cost,
this initial outlay should be absorbed by your charge to the
advertiser. Suppose you have 100 people lined up to "wear" one
of these bumper stickers on their cars for 6 weeks.
Figure the bumper
stickers will cost $100. What do you charge the advertiser?
Always charge based on the circulation of the ad, like
newspapers do--on a "per car" basis. If you charge $1 per car
per week with 200 cars, this comes out to $200 per week, or
$1,200 total over 6 weeks from the advertiser. Subtract $100 for
getting the bumper stickers made and $500 as payment for the
cars "wearing" the bumper stickers, and you would end up with a
profit picture of $600 for those 6 weeks. And that's just from
one advertisement!
In the beginning, you
should be the one calling on potential advertisers and doing all
the selling. Once you've got your program organized and running
smoothly, your next step is a natural multiplication of your
efforts. Run an ad in your local paper for commission sales
people. Brief them on the basics and get them out on the street
selling the concept to advertisers for you. The best time to
launch a business of this kind is during the fair weather
seasons or just in advance of general political elections in
your area. Once established, however, the business can and
should sustain itself year around.
The selling keys to this
style of advertising are the same as those for any
"word-of-mouth" advertising. You've got people all over town
spreading the word--talking about the advertiser. These are the
people who are saturating the area with the advertiser's name
and message wherever they go.
This is also an ideal
business for constant free publicity write- ups in your local
newspapers. Your unique advertisements will draw frequent
comment from folks commuting to and from their places of
business or school. It's easy! It's simple! And it works!
Compared with other more
traditional advertising methods, bumper sticker advertising is
very low cost. One of the tricks of the trade is in using short,
snappy, even humorous slogans or messages. For instance:
"Anderson's Cafe--6th & Main--That's where I'm going--How about
you?" Another idea is to make the lettering on the bumper
stickers luminous to the headlights of the cars behind.
Neon colors and letters
will also attract attention. Most important, make sure to make
your lettering easy to read and the message short enough to
comprehend in one glance. Potential customers are all around
you. Think about it. You can start at the front of the yellow
pages in your phone book and probably never run out of places
ready to be sold on your plan of bumper sticker advertising.
Some of the more traditional places to sell this kind of
advertising include: Taverns, Newspapers, Movie Theaters, Pizza
Houses, Radio & TV Stations, Sporting Goods, Flea Markets,
Insurance Companies, Auto Repair Shops, Physical Fitness Clubs,
Appliance Repair Trade Schools, Political Campaigns, Travel
Agencies and Events Sponsors.
The important thing is to
always be creative in your selling efforts. Be sure to show the
prospect how his business can grow by advertising in the manner
you propose. Describe how your method is more positive, more
responsive and lower in cost than the more traditional
advertising. For example, if the average car "wearing" one of
your ads is seen by 10 drivers a day, 7 days a week for 6 weeks,
that single ad has appealed to 420 people. Multiply that by 200
cars, and now 84,000 have seen the customer's ad for a low
$1,200--Less than one and a half cents per contact! That is a
true advertising bargain.
Remember, too, the more
clever or "catchy" the message on the bumper sticker, the more
it will make people talk and respond. For ideas along these
lines, go back to the yellow pages of your telephone book and
read all those short, crispy one-liners.
Practice writing and
rewriting your ad copy before settling on the best. Make sure
you have several possible choices to present to a new client. Or
they may have a slogan or motto they would prefer to use. While
their choice may not be the one you would choose, remember, the
customer is always right!
Remember also that
advertising is a form of "brainwashing," and the more people see
the message, the stronger appeal it will have. Thus, when they
need or are in the market for services or products offered by
the advertiser, they will quickly refer to the strongest,
easiest-to-recall advertising message in their minds. And that,
of course, means that if the prospect sees a specific
advertising message on the bumpers of the cars in front of him
day after day, when he's ready to buy, that particular
advertiser will be the one he will most likely patronize.
As you experience success
with your bumper sticker advertising business, you can expand to
include magnetic signs on the sides of cars, saddle-back designs
on the rear of pickup trucks and even yard signs in residential
neighborhoods. As explained in this report, line up your "method
of exposure," determine your costs, and then go after the
advertisers. It can be a very easy way to achieve real wealth
and independence. See you at the top!
