Push boundaries. Make an impact. Let your creativity run free as you explore how to make print advertising even more engaging than it already is. On-the-page creative in the form of Post-it® Notes and removable labels, page configurations featuring gatefolds and perf-and-tears, and special effects using metallic, neon, and custom inks, only scratch the surface of how you can delight and surprise readers. Solidify your brand message in your audience’s minds, as it’s proven that: • For a magazine reader, simply touching a magazine page makes the product feel more real to the brain. • Readers, when touching and interacting with an ad, begin to feel like they own the advertised product and so they value it more. • When readers can actually pull something off a page, engage with it, or turn it over in their hands, the perceived value of the advertised product (and their willingness to pay for it) goes up. Half the brain (at least!) is devoted to processing sensory experiences. Make sure your message stands out and sticks around.
The possibilities are ENDLESS
THE POST-IT® NOTE Humanize your brand and connect with your audience on a deeper level by adding a Post-it® Note to your creative. People are conditioned to take action from a sticky note. It’s an engaging and tempting way to amplify your message. Post-it® Notes adhere to your ad, and their removable nature allows the note to easily peel off and attach to other surfaces. Readers can stick reminders on the fridge, planner, mirror, or edge of a monitor, creating a constant call-to-action of your brand and driving lower-funnel action. Print in full color, front and/or back, on white or Post-it® Note’s iconic Canary Yellow.
