Today is my busiest day to prepare my company’s trade show that will be held next Monday after this Monday, so I have about two weeks to finish all the preparation. One thing that still bothering me is company’s souvenir.
In my opinion, souvenir should represent the company’s idea, as well as it is also could be a promotion tools. So we get the popularity in turn of money we have spent to procure souvenir. Many companies give ballpoint, calendar, notepad, agenda, etc. But I want different thing, and it is tote bag! Yeah, with a big logo which is obviously seen, promotion is more effective. Yes, finally we ordered dozens of custom tote bags for company trade show souvenir. My duty is done!
Good Exhibition, Good Market
It is already clear that trade show or product exhibition is one of the important media to improve accessibility of market to reach a product, or a tool for either introduction or promotion for the new product.
There are two options to make a show; that is you make your own product show or you join an event organizer who organizes a trade show. I rather suggest you the latest option than the previous one to pick, because when you join an event organizer with other companies’ product exhibition, usually you will get more visitors to your stand, as various products show is more interesting than single product show for most of people.
What make a trade show success? The position of trade show booths is important thing to arrange firstly. Nice interior design will attract more visitors to come to your stand, and more visitors mean more selling possibility. For elegant and professional look, you may add pipe and drape in the background that depict your theme or your product. And it is important to put banner stands in front of your booth to give a brief view to the visitor about what it is about. Use your creativity to make it eye catching in one blink, then your stand will be full of visitors. Sure!
Starting Retail Business
Are you now thinking about starting your own business? What kind of business you want to try on? If you have capital under US$500, retail business is compatible, with US$200 for the building, and the rest is for the commodities which are can be fresh fruit and vegetable, fish and meat, fast foods, canteen, or sundries shop.
Wait, before we talk about the commodities, we must prepare the building, yeah, we can call architect and contractor, and finish. While the contractors doing the building, we make a site plan for the interior and arrangement of the commodities. Oh, don’t forget to pick safety tools like fire extinguisher, smoke alarm, etc. The main tools you should provide out of all the tools are cash drawer, bill printer, computer, and money detector. Money detector is very important if your employees are not familiar enough to fake bills. So now, are you ready for the business?
ECOVER Uncovers Safe Products
ECOVER was started in 1979 in Belgium by Frans Boggaerts. Armed with more than 20 years experience in the detergent industry, he created a line of alternative products which would work as effectively as commercial cleaners but have as little negative environmental impact as possible.
Today, the ECOVER product line includes fabric softener, laundry washing powders and liquids, a wool wash liquid, nonchlorine bleach, cream cleanser, floor soap, toilet cleaner and dishwashing liquid. Their products are manufactured in Belgium and the U.S. and sold in more than 30 countries. ECOVER products are made without the use of phosphates, enzymes, optical brighteners, chlorine bleaches, petroleum based detergents, NTA, EDTA and synthetic perfumes or colorings. Their products are not tested on animals.
To educate consumers and promote their products, ECOVER has produced “The ECOVER Code” as a guideline to help consumers understand many of the manufacturing processes and ingredients that are part of conventional cleaning products and why use of those products can have a strong negative impact on the ecosystem.
“At ECOVER, we feel a strong responsibility to do our part in preserving the planet,” said Ellen Weiser, ECOVER spokesperson.
What’s in it for ECOVER?
