Half your friends are so busy they’re talking about having clones made. The other half are so forgetful that they have strings on every finger. So, as you’re planning your big event, you know you have to let them know when it will be as soon as possible and you’ll have to think of a way to remind them about the event frequently. What you need are save the date magnets.

These magnets are perfect for people who know they’re holding an event on a certain day, even if they don’t know all of the other details, such as where it will be held. For example, if you know you’re getting married on Valentine’s Day, but you wait until you decide whether you want to have the wedding at the country club or the local four star restaurant before you send out the official invitations, you may just have waited too long. Save the date cards or magnets let everyone know you have something going on before they make plans for romantic dinners and weekend retreats.

Save the date magnets are an especially good choice for those who are looking for an easy way to remind people about the event, since most who get magnets tend to put them right on the fridge.

You hand a business card to your potential customer and watch her drop it onto her counter without a second glance. How long before it hits the trash can? Five minutes after you pull out of the driveway? Ten? If only you had decided to get a set of business card magnets to give to new contacts that seem likely to need your business. Then, that card would have ended up on the fridge, where it probably would have stayed for months to come.

Business card magnets are popular for several reasons:

The rolodex is not as endangered as the Dodo bird, but it certainly isn’t the thriving desk accessory it used to be. Many people have taken their address books and rolodexes online. While this may sound like a good thing for your business, think about the effort involved in stuffing a card into an alphabetically organised file. Then, think about the effort involved in transferring the information on the card into an online database.

People who use a business frequently love the convenience of glancing at the magnet on the fridge to get the business phone number or check hours. If customers arent tied to one business and your number is on the fridge, it is pretty likely that the customers will opt to call you instead of pulling out the yellow pages.
