Promotional Desk Calendars
Tips & Advice to help you make your decision on Promotional Desk Calendars
Promotional desk calendars are a great means of remaining on the periphery of your customer's radar throughout the year. Desk calendars that bear your company name, logo and contact information make it easy for your customers to remember who you are and how to get a hold of you when they would like to.
Promotional desk calendars are available from providers who can furnish you with custom designed calendars made to your specifications. Such providers may offer a line of different calendars including desk calendars, wall calendars, pocket calendars and daily planners all of which can be emblazoned with your company's name and logo.
Promotional calendars are a one time marketing investment that can potentially pay dividends throughout the year every time one of your clients glances over to check the date or write down an appointment. Calendars are a subtle but effective means of reminding your clients of who you are throughout the year.

Promotional Desk Calendars Types and Styles
Types of promotional desk calendars that are sure to get regular useBy Kate Esposito The problem with some custom promotional calendars that businesses give out is that they're not very practical and are likely to end up in the trash. Unless you motivate people to keep your calendars on their desks throughout the year, you are not using your advertising dollars effectively.
Luckily, there are several promotional desk calendars types and styles that people are likely to hang on to. They are convenient, useful and do not scream "ad," but still give good placement to your company logo. These options are:
1. Desk calendars that double as mouse pads;
2. Small spiral bound desk calendars;
3. Blotter calendars made to sit in the middle of people's desks.
Look at mouse-pad-type customized desk calendars
The great thing about these types of customized desk calendars is that people using them as mouse pads look at them dozens of times a day. Even looking at your logo out of the corner of the eye when reaching for the mouse can add to that person's brand recognition. Plus, since mouse pads tend to get dirty and spilled on, yours have an advantage. If someone spills on your calendar, they don't have to throw away the whole pad. They can simply tear off the top page.
Try: Look at the calendar mouse pads Garrett Specialties offers. They have a tab at the top that also lets the owner hang them on the wall. Then explore BetterMousepads' site. It lets you order calendars that start with any month you'd like. That way you can distribute them at any time of the year, not just in December. You can also insert coupons or advertisements for your business between each month.
Check out spiral bound business desk calendars
A spiral bound logo desk calendar is like the traditional desk calendar you find in a bookstore. There are two main types: those that stand up and those that don't. These calendars are used more to check dates than for scheduling appointments. People like them because they are compact and easy to flip through.
Try: Visit 4imprint's website and look at their tent spiral desk calendars. They include a support on the back that allows them to sit up on the desk for easy access. Then look at VistaPrint. This company offers spiral calendars that simply lay flat on the desk or in a drawer. You can customize them with your branded image or choose from provided stock photos and themes.
Consider blotter style custom desk calendars
Many business people consider a blotter calendar to be the most useful personalized desk calendar. It is basically a blank 21" by 16" monthly grid and is perfect for keeping track of monthly business appointments. Many people lay them on their desks either under their keyboards or directly in front of them. Your business name stays in plain view all day, every day.
Try: Visit Identity-Links' online catalog of promo desk calendars. It offers several different styles of imprintable blotters. It even has a few custom sizes for those who want smaller or bigger blotters. Then check out Promopeddler's website. You can get four-color blotters, ones with vinyl corners and even one with the option to put art behind the grid.
