Why we give our clients free Marketing Materials

We all know the importance of marketing materials and how it deters the success of a business. Whether offline or online - it’s vital to get your business name out in the world.

But when you're in the professional foodservice industry, you have a mere gap in the day to worry about such things. If you want your business to exceed, marketing materials are something you should consider implementing.

So, what are marketing materials and why do they have so much power?

 

Marketing materials are a proven formula in building business success when all else fails, especially in the foodservice industry. They come in many forms, but the most accessible and reliable to foodservice professionals come in the form of print and digital content. Both are viable sources of increasing your venue and food exposure.

In this socially driven generation, businesses rely on the power of social media to solely carry their brand promotions and marketing. According to Kimanzi of the Entrepreneur, using digital content alone in promoting your business can drive results, but will be better used in conjunction with print.

And alas, print materials continue to shine in a modernised society.
A survey conducted by FedEx in 2018 found that 85% of customers stated they are more inclined to shop with a small business who featured printed materials in their marketing. 

Printed materials in the foodservice industry are one of the most valuable methods of promotion. It can efficiently drive customer traffic, build customer loyalty, and promote more frequent purchases, all the while providing many benefits to the business owner.Il Uno Artisan Free Point of Sale 

 

How you can benefit from using Print Materials

  • Easy way to add ambiance to your business’s venue
  • Non-committal method of promotion – can change up the design according to seasonality
  • Flexibility to control its exposure to customers
  • Validates customer’s thoughts with appealing imagery
  • Ability to position anywhere in your venue according to busy periods and traffic
  • Easily replace when needed (venue re-branding, end of the promotion)
  • Continuous exposure – remains relevant during day-to-day activities
  • Little to no upkeep and monitoring needed 

We understand that print materials aren’t for everyone – perhaps you have a more youthful target audience in your foodservice venue. Don’t worry, there is also a heap of benefits from using digital content too:

 

How you can benefit from using Digital Content

Digital content can be very effective in promoting your food when used in addition to print materials. You can:
  • Attract in non-local customers who are exposed to your online marketing
  • Reach a wider local and non-local audience
  • Opportunity to share to loyal following
  • Opportunity to develop personable customer relationship
  • Create shareable dishes that will promote sharing online
  • Can track audience and effectiveness

While all of this may sound appealing and effective to bring into your business, not all business owners have access to the resources they need to make this happen. 
Outsourcing and hiring skilled designers and marketers can be a challenging and time-consuming process. This is especially prevalent when working odd hours in the foodservice industry.
 
That’s where we step in.
