Marketing Monday: Promo Swaps!

Fab Trashion Team Swag

Promo Swaps are a great way for teams to help promote each others work.

Kimmy of Bella Violetta organizes a promo swap for our team twice a year.
It's a daunting prospect, trying to corral a bunch of artists,
but she's up to the task!

Everyone that participates sends Kimmy swag and in return receives a box of goodies. It's always exciting to open the box to see what's inside.
The promos get better every time we swap.
It's really quite impressive!

When we send out an order it includes a promo from a fellow member.
Who doesn't love to get swag??

The Trashion Team creates art, jewelry, fashion and objects from materials that are recycled, leftover, thrifted, or found.
We promote environmental awareness & look good doing it!
But it doesn't stop there! Man do we know how to brand our businesses!
Check out the amazing promos from this year's swap!

Marketing Monday: Promo Swap

zJayne

The Etsy Trashion team is going to do a promo swap!
What is a promo swap, you ask?

According to Kimmy of bellavioletta, our Swap Coordinator,
A promo swap is to help our members promote one another.
Swap participants will send their promos/samples to the Swap Host,
& will receive back a mixture of promos & samples from all the other
swap participants.

Items received should be included in outgoing sales packages,
handed out at craft shows / markets, or home shows / parties.
Team members should be creative in how they share the promos
and samples received!

Promos can be anything that represents a team member and his
or her work. The purpose of a promo swap is to get our shop names
out to customers we would not normally be able to reach. Some
examples of swap items: matchbook note pads, small thank you
cards, charms, yarn samples, soap samples, sachets. Anything
that shows off our talent and has our shop names will work.
