Calendars Printing Services

Promotional calendar

A promotional calendar can be used throughout business to serve many purposes. Many companies around the world use calendars to promote a new direction or product in-house. For example, incentives can be delivered with a time frame or sales goal in calendar form. Many times a promotional calendar is offered with other promotional items. For example, golf resorts sometimes offer pens, calendars, notepads and other items to remind customers of who they are and build loyalty. Some promotional products are tossed aside because they are not useful. A promotional calendar is a usable giveaway where you can still promote yours products and services!

Print Lion can design, print, market and mail promotional calendars to customers and potential customers.

Promotional calendar tips

A promotional calendar order can be placed in September for November and December distribution. You may also want to check printing prices around the month of June because Print Lion generally offers summer discounts!

Calendar color options

Promotional calendars should be bright enough to attract attention. Color is dependent upon the targeted customer and the emotions that are being addressed.  Consider the calendars location. Is it a business calendar that is displayed on a desk, hung on a wall or refrigerator, or for personal use, carried in a purse or briefcase? Make sure that the graphics used create a cohesive design effectively reaching its audience.

Calendar sizes options

We offer two popular size options for promotional calendars; 8.5 X 11 and an 8.5 X 5.5. The standard page count for calendars is either 24 or 28 pages. 24 pages is usually for a self cover calendar in which the cover is the same stock as the inside pages. A 28 page calendar is usually great for a calendar in which the cover is a heavier weight and the inside pages are a lighter paper.

Consider placing  contact information clearly throughout the calendar. Block off a day that you are having a sale or promotions on your calendar.
