When it comes to designing your advertising, promotional mouse mats might come to mind as a great advertising idea, and you would be completely right not to dismiss the use of these products. Design is extremely important, however, in getting your customers on board with your promotional idea and using your promotional mouse mats.

No matter how much a client might love to do business with you, if your promotional mouse mats are ugly or not in a style that attracts them, they will dismiss them and throw them away. This is money wasted because you did not take the time to sort out a design that would please the largest group of people in your customer base, and that is money that you cannot afford to be throwing away.

Your promotional mouse mats should appeal to a large section of your customer base, so they should appeal to you as well. Your logo or company slogan is a good place to start, but you should not stop there when considering your design. Think about advertising that you have seen lately, and whether it attracted you or not. Your promotional mouse mats are large enough to have a great deal of advertising on them, and you are wasting your space if you are not including that advertising instead of limiting yourself to a company logo.

Your advertising should not be too bright or too loud, since you want your promotional mouse mats to complement your customers' desks and tastes instead of taking them over. If the colors or prints of your promotional mouse mats are distracting in any way, your customers will not use them in favor of the mouse mats that they already have and that work just fine for them.

Consider talking to your advertising department about recent advertising and see if you can incorporate at least some element of that into your promotional mouse mats and your promotional ideas. Do not forget to make your logo and company name prominent, as well as your contact information, but do not let them completely take over or else your mouse mats will look like large business cards!

Simplicity is often key, so do not make your promotional mouse mats overly complicated. Not only will they cost more to print if they are too complicated or if they involve many colors, but they will also not attract nearly so many people as a simple, clean design will. The goal, after all, is to get as many of your customers as possible to add your promotional mouse mats to their offices and desks.

There is a lot to think about when it comes to designing your promotional mouse mats, however once they are designed and distributed, the extra effort will almost certainly pay off in the form of more customers and more referrals. There is nothing better than having a large piece of advertising on the desk of many of your clients to really boost your business.
