Thankfully 2020 is nearing its close!
Many families had to cancel holidays, couples had to cancel weddings, birthday parties have been cancelled or re arranged for a much smaller audience, dinner dates, trips out and countless other events have been put on hold…
Now more than ever it’s important to organise and plan for 2021, let’s make sure we don’t double book and we can fit everything in the diary.
Whether for business or personal use calendars are a great way to keep your brand on show all year round whilst offering a practical and much needed service.
Lots of people have moved their diaries online but there’s still a timeless elegance to a physical diary or calendar, nothing beats putting pen to paper and always being able to see it hanging on your wall, or seeing it on your desk or in your bag.
Diaries come in many shapes and sizes, page a day, week to view, week with notes, international, pocket versions, A4 desk size the list is endless. There are general practical diaries and also the designer brands.
Due to the rich Italian heritage, Castelli diaries and notebooks have long been a favourite for many. They offer a classy sophisticated option which gives a great impression whether given as a gift or used by staff members. They offer a choice of colours and cover materials: the Castelli A4 weekly desk diary is bound in matt finished Matra material, it has white PSC paper, it’s a 12 month week to view diary, it offers a ribbon marker and the year 2021 is stylishly silver foil blocked to the top right corner of the front cover. This diary can be printed, foil blocked or blind embossed with your company logo, we can even personalise it with individual names. Full colour printed pages can be inserted at the front of the diary, these can offer more information about your company or detail upcoming events.
Calendars are widely used around the home, in offices and receptions areas, it’s an incredibly useful and practical ‘wall hanging’. It can be used to pencil in short notes about meetings and occasions. They have a large branding area to show company logos and key contact information, they can also be completely bespoke with your own photographs/images. They come in many different variations: the Smart Economy Wall Calendar, Smart Compact Easel Calendar, the Calendar Pod, these three are great options to promote events, they can be pre-printed with event details and other notable occasions. Images can be completely bespoke, perhaps clients could submit their own photographs to be included as part of a competition for next year’s calendar, this options offers great interaction between business and client and gives a great sense of value.
Don’t forget the Advent Calendar, who doesn’t love an Advent calendar? The very first advent calendar was produced in 1851 and was handmade.
Nowadays these festive fun calendars are a staple in every home and office, offering a light hearted countdown to the big day, these calendars are a great promotional product and can be produced as a bespoke item with your company logo and design to the front with individual notes behind each window, complete with delicious milk chocolate!
