5 REASONS WHY YOUR BRAND STILL NEEDS PRINT MARKETING

Sure there’s an app or two for availing every comfort the human mind can conceive. Every product and service that we know or not know of, can be availed at a single click. As much as we would like to think otherwise, the Internet drives our lives in more ways than one. We are driven every second of the day by social media and its never-ending shenanigans. Call it muck or magic, we are all in it together. Scrolling, swiping and clicking our way through it, consuming content at a crazy rate.
Therefore, it’s a no-brainer that online marketing is the best form of marketing.
Yet, print marketing is still a very important part of your marketing plan.
Here are 5 reasons why your brand still needs that brochure, flyer, poster, or report to engage with different user groups.
1. Diminishing, not dead.

There is still a large group of people that is not hopelessly addicted to their gadgets, and prefer downing their morning tea with their newspaper.
2) Seems legit
You don’t trust everything that you see online”
Because of the ephemeral nature of the online medium and lack of serious regulation, people tend to trust the printed word a lot more, although legit brands command a high level of trust even online. Moreover, a  printed piece placed in any corner of the house can be picked back and reread over and over.
3) Two is always better than one.

By having a bit of both types of marketing, you will be reaching the highest amount of people possible. Some will not look on the internet for ideas, and some no longer take an interest in anything sent out in print. It is important that we cater to both the types.

4) Up for grabs. Always!

It is always easier to preserve and track a printed material as compared to information that’s available online. Moreover takeaways and brochures always come in handy when you want to order in quickly or make a note of a specific piece of information.

5) You can always “skip ad” but ignoring something that you hold in your hand is hard to ignore.
Online media gives people the choice to consume the content they wish.Print media marketing maybe old school, but quite evidently gives your brand an upper hand as compared to those who don’t resort to print media marketing at all.
