Or at least everytime they eat chips or anything else that they need to seal. I know when I go to a builders night out or something like that they always say, well we had some chip clippers but they got gone. Hope this helps! :grin: I would suggest doing a chip clip with your art on it, becasue just about everybody eats chips and then they would see it everyday!

I'd like to come if it's not too far away. As far as what to give out, I don't know because I don't know what KIND of art you do. I was thinking a paint brush with your name and number. But personally, if I was walking up and looking at your stuff, whatever kind of art it is, I'd LOVE to have a magnet! Also, if you are in MY neck of the woods I have some other promotional stuff for you to think about. I am in Madison and in old historical downtown Madison there is a place that has a monthly showcase for artists. I had an artisit friend do it and it was quite profitable for her and it got her name out there and in the newspaper too! Which fall festival? If you wouldn’t mind would you email me and let me know.

Magnet art was exactly what I was thinking. :) Already working on a new biz card design, so that one's a given. :D Thanks for the feedback guys!

It helps the (potential) customer make the connection. And it's not possible with every industry, but it's something to shoot for. When I f-i-n-a-l-l-y get my damn site finished, I plan on having a virtual open house and giving away (in person and online) customized mousepads. Every person who has a 'puter needs a mousepad, and it will have my contact info on it, right next to their 'puter. Win-win :) I know refrigerator magnets can be semi-tacky, but what about one with a small image of some of your art? Even laminated business cards are good, since they look too nice to throw away, so people tend to hang onto them. Whether any of that translates to actual sales, only tme will tell. But we gve it our best shot :) Good luck honey!! It’s normally suggested to give away, when possible, something related to your product, and something useful.
