When you give a promotional item to a client, you're tossing a metaphoric bottle into the oceans. You'll never know what happened to that item after it leaves your sight; you can only hope that it successfully leads them to one day call your firm for help.
Of course, nothing says you can't try to tilt the odds in your favor. The best promotional items are those that a lead is most likely to hang onto and continue to use, right? Well, have you considered how useful a custom appointment book might be in someone's life?
A Custom Appointment Book: The 365-Day Advertisement
Even though electronic devices like tablets and smartphones are trying to take over our note-taking, it still seems like they're too much bother when taking down a quick note. Plenty of people are still using paper-based day planners, and it's easy to see why. It's still easier than fooling with touchscreens.
From its handsome leatherette wraparound cover, to its full-color interior pages, a good appointment book is still far nicer and more useful than any gizmo in businessman's day to day life. It compresses note space, calendars, calculation tables, phone records, and numerous other records in a single easily-accessible place.
And if your business's name is on your cover, that's going to keep you on their mind virtually every day of the year!

Invest In Promotional Items That Bring Real Returns
Sure, a custom appointment book costs more than a simple pen or legal pad, but what you're paying for is the increased utility value. Most promotional items end up ignored, or thrown out. Only the best ones are kept, but those that are build an immediate bridge between you and the lead.
Since you can customize the content throughout, it means you can keep providing new ways to make yourself relevant to a client. Include custom messages on the quarterly dividers, or consider running different promotions every month for people who bring their planners with them. With the right content inside, you can further increase the chances of them coming to rely on your planner!

It gives a client plenty of different reasons to keep it around and put it to good use. Then, every time they do, they'll be thinking of you.
With a customer appointment book, every day could be the day they decide to call!
