While not all businesses are suited for what we do here at Street Sampling, there are some forms of “word of mouth” or experiential marketing you can do on your own.
Consider the “magnetic sign” for your online business needing exposure. Magnetic signs immediately attract attention. With the right message, they reinforce your business brand name, phone number, and even website address (be sure it’s short and catchy) as you drive around town.
Magnetic experiential marketing signs come in several varieties, and several price ranges so be sure to shop around (or get recommendations from others) on the best services to use.
Although signs sound like a “simple process,” do consider them your personal work(s) of art. Put planning and effort into your design, make the words readable! I’ve seen some crazy lettering out there too hard to read to understand what is being advertised – what a complete waste of time and money.
The use of billboards has been around for a long time, and those enterprising individuals who take these “portable billboards” with them through busy city streets can find they produce some amazing results.

I’ve thought about doing a magnetic sign for promotion. I also thought about getting smaller ones to stick on my car for people to take if they want one. In fact I bought some magnets for the printer to try to do my own for an experiment. Just haven’t gotten around to doing it yet.

This is one of those things I’ve got on my “to do” list that I’ve just never done. Problem is with several sites to choose from, which to make the sign for… LOL!

Getting a sign out there is a great idea. You need a good, catchy logo first, though. Branding is very important to your image.
