Rushimprint is like the Jaguar of the promotional products industry – we do everything at warp 9.9, 24 hours a day. Since we specialize in providing promotional products in a flash, we have no time to rest. I start the day getting client orders, then sprinting from one production to another, then coordinating with suppliers from everywhere – all throughout making sure that everyone is happy. And believe it or not, I’m not complaining.
How do I do it? I wear this around. Client deadline fast approaching. Squeeze. Volume snowball. Squeeze. Unexpected delay from supplier. Squeeze. This simple contraption, if I may call it such, is my best friend – and many other people’s, apparently. Sales of stress balls have doubled every year for the past three years. And because they come in all shapes and sizes, no one will ever get tired of them.
More reasons to squeeze
I’m expecting more work in the next few days because more and more businesses are ordering our promotional products. Who can blame them when promotional products are too good to not use? They work like magic. Thirty nine percent of the people who receive promotional products recall the names of the advertisers as long as six months after they received it. According to the most recent study conducted by LJ Market Research, respondents’ ability to recall the name of an advertiser on a promotional product they had received is up to 76 percent! That’s about 23 percent higher than name recall from traditional print ads!
So it doesn’t look like I’ll be getting any rest soon, but that’s okay. Believe it or not, the thrill of making clients too happy beats the kick of coffee.
And yes, I still do get late night phone calls from frantic clients who need hundreds of promotional products right away. As in tomorrow. (Squeeze).
But hey – that’s why I’m here.
