LIGHTWEIGHT DISPOSABLE PONCHOS #1500

There are a wide range of uses for our portable lightweight ponchos in the auto industry.  Packaged in a small polybag, a card with your client's information or message is slipped inside the pocket-sized pouch.  This allows for fast, domestic customization at smaller quantities.

And now with three NEW stock designs (or create your own), we've made selling easy.   Use them for:

1. Auto service companies - Customers stopping in for maps and directions, great giveaway before their summer road trips.

2. City/Highway information centers & service centers - as a giveaway or use it as a retail item when people stop in for directions or to use the facilities.

3. National or State Parks - as a small retail item in travel services lodge for rainy days or as a small token when entering the park on a not so perfect day.

4. Auto dealerships - place one or two in the glove compartments of each car.

5. Rental Car Companies - as an "extra" when you pick up your car.

AN ELEGANT TWIST

Is your client an upscale dealer looking for a nice gift for their best customers and new car owners?

Avaline has added an elegant twist to the industry’s best selling promotional item, by combining the usefulness of the traditional key tag with the elegance and brilliance of genuine sterling silver.  This American classic horseshoe key tag creates a lasting impression with its quality and unique appearance.  Add their corporate message/logo on an emblematic charm that will be a constant reminder to the recipient.  Present new car owners with the keys to their car on this horseshoe.  Or thank a loyal service customer with a token of appreciation.  Not only will this gift be put to good use, but it will be treasured for years to come. 

A GREAT STOW AWAY

These portable folding chairs come with their own nylon carry bags, making for easy storage in the trunk of any car. It only makes sense that auto dealers, gas stations, auto repair/body shops or car rental agencies should make these a staple giveaway.  Either they can put them in the trunk/SUV or personally hand them off to the customers that keep their business going.  At a terrific price, they say "thanks" to your current customers, and when the chairs are put to use,  it's great outdoor billboard advertising to attract potential ones.

So versatile, they make the perfect gift for anyone.   Great for road trips, trips to the beach, camping trips, soccer moms or picnics. 

FILL 'ER UP

They’re spiraling upward again! The gas prices at the pump.  No matter how much cash you sink into your tank, it seems the needles always on E.  I saw a funny bumper sticker yesterday.  “I’m on the gas can diet, I either drive or eat.”  A perfect example of the dreaded monetary decisions we have to make when gas goes up.  I can either pay for the extra minutes on my cell phone or get to work today, have a few cocktails with friends on Friday or get to work on Monday, sushi with friends on Wednesday night or drive to work on Thursday. Mmmmm maybe work is the problem?? And to sacrifice my Starbucks cinnamon dolce latte!  Well it’s lucky the oil companies don’t have to deal with me on those mornings. 

And although they don’t control oil prices, local gas stations need to stand out above the rest, especially when local price wars are raging.  My friend told me last summer he frequented one gas station all the time even though they usually charged a higher price per gallon.  Why? Because in return for his business, he was given everything from free mugs to free newspapers.  Free stuff for a fill up!  A great way to smooth over frustrated gas pumpers and build a loyal customer base.   As the summer approaches and more and more travelers head out on the road to the parks, the beaches, the lakes or any weekend getaway, what item could be more perfect than Avaline’s Simple and Cool Cooler (A8808).  A basic cooler that is a great beverage tote/lunch cooler with an aluminum foil insulated interior and zippered main compartment.  500 of these are only 3.30 (R) each and it’s available in 26 fun colors that will rev anyone up.   Advertise the cooler giveaway and keep them rolling in.  “FREE COOLER.  Just tell us to “Fill ‘er up!”.  Offer more services than just pumping gas (auto body/car inspections/oil change)? Create happy customers at the pump and they’ll be back to test drive the other services.  It’s a win,win, the stations get the customers and the customers get, well - less gas pains.
