Merrill Car Magnets: Compact and Effective Advertising for Your Vehicle

[heat123]

Anyone own these? Are they really small? I read 16x 11 dimensions and that just seems so small for car mags?? Do you like them? Are they easy to see or read from afar?

Anyother recommendations TIA!

I don't know about the Merrill ones but just speaking from my own experience, magnets are mostly noted (ie people getting phone info etc) when the car is standing still at a stop light, parking lot, drive way. The eyes go to color. If your print is eye-catching then it will work. Bigger isn't always better.

We discussed this alot in another thread in "Increasing Sales" I think. You might want to reference that.

Mine don't stand out much because I have a white care but the do get noticed. They match my buisness cards, name tag etc. The only time they are off my car is when I am washing it

 

[heat123]

so the lettering is big enough to see for people Kathy or do you have to be up close to read them??

My director has them and I do think the lettering is a little small. It has that row of product pictures on it and I find that a little distracting.

Hmm, I think I will just give them a whirl and see if they work?? Can't hurt any I suppose. Just gotta get the ok from DH- as he cherishes my Pimp ride as he calls it! LOL

I find the font on them (as well as most of Merrill's stuff) way too small. I got the magnetic name tag and my customers complain they can't read my nametag unless they in my personal space, practically kissing me.

Too bad they won't give us another vendor to use for mags or window decals! I don't like how small Merrills window decals are and aren't they generic without personalization??

I went to the Tracy Williams meeting, and I tell ya, there were TONS of cars w/ HUGE Window Decals w/ the logo, and all of thier information on it. I want to know where people got those from

A couple people in my cluster have used outside sources and their decals are much bigger and personalized!

Probably from our old vendor that we had before Merrill.

I just ordered the window decal from Merrill, and then went to another vendor (JeriSigns.com) to get my website and my phone number. I will let you all know how it works out...will end up being $10 plus shipping from Merrill and about $11 including shipping from Jeri Signs. I don't think that's too bad!

I didn't want a magnet, since you have to be sure to take them off and clean them underneath weekly. (I know tons of folks don't do this and don't have a problem, but we just got a brand new Sportage this summer and I will NOT chance scratching the paint or anything!! ) Anyhow, I know myself and I would not have kept up with cleaning it regularly!

I'll post a picture once I get everything and put it on my truck! (Although, my personalized part may take 2-3 WEEKS to come in.... )

I thought about that just last night, buying Merrills then adding my own personalization to it from an outside source I guess?
