What is the best times of
the year to buy promotional products? Aren’t there always products on sale? Yes and no…of
course there are always sales, suppliers like the merchant’s on radio, TV and
print media have products to sell, but just like seasonal purchases and
discounts there are times of the year that are better for purchasing items for
your promotions.
Your promotional consultant
should be advising you regarding posted discount dates for reoccurring
purchases such as holiday cards, planners, calendars, and food products. Suppliers
offer discounts to better prepare production and plan for inventory prior to
the request of last minute shoppers.
Are you a non profit or a
school? There are also spike periods for printing tee shirts or stocking up for
school store inventory. Working with your promotional consultant you will be able to
identify trends, capitalize on specials and keep inventory and budget in check
by planning ahead.
