Calendar Return-on-Investment Calculator

The Most Cost-Effective Marketing Tool on Earth?

We believe that custom promotional calendars are the best marketing tool you can have. But don't take our word for it. Below are a few questions to explore the value of a custom calendar to your company. (By the way, we don't collect any of this information. It's only for your information.) So, what's YOUR return on investment for a custom calendar?

Increased Sales
The average direct-mail response rate is 1% to 5%. Calendars can get a higher response rate based upon a number of factors, but let's conversatively say you get a 1% response rate:

$		*		*		%	=	$
	Average profit per new client		# of clients and/or prospects I can reach		Conservative percent that will buy

Goodwill & Gift Value
Giving your client something during the holidays is a great way to say Thank You to your clients. A beautiful calendar designed to be functional for your clientele isn't perceived as advertising, but as a gift. Calendars retail for up to $15, but let's be conservative and say the perceived value is a low $7.50.

# of clients and/or prospects I can reach			Conservative gift value

Advertisers
Some companies and calendars are well-suited to having months sponsored by vendors or partner companies. Prices per month range from $500 - $2000. How many months could you get sponsored, for how much each?

	*	$		=	$

Calendar Sales
Retail operations usually can place calendars out and sell them at the counter. How many calendars could you sell, and at what price point?

	*	$		=	$

$		+	$		+	$		=	$
	Logo in front of _____ people for 365 days			Value of educating clients & prospects			Increased sales from coupons or sale dates
