There are a lot that you can gain from offset poster printing. If you want large format ad that will last and endure the test of time and heat of the competition, this is the ideal route that you can opt to take.

Offset has been known to come up with quality materials at affordable prices. This is the reason why most business people and professionals alike choose this method when they have to avail bulk materials at a time. This is actually ideal at this instance because you will be able to save up a lot as compared when you choose other methods of printing such as digital.

Unique Selling Proposition

This is an important factor in business, your unique selling proposition or your USP. After establishing your own, you can very well use that on your marketing strategies, even on your offset poster printing ventures. What exactly is the USP?

The concept behind the USP was first used in the 1950s by the CEO of a company called Bates Advertising, Rosser Reeves. Such feature may not necessarily be unique to what you are selling or your services. What matters is the way that you present it. For example, the way Rosser did this back then to a certain toothpaste brand.

He focused on one ingredient that can be found on the toothpaste and used its benefits in all his advertising efforts. The result was enormous. People bought the product because of the ingredient and the benefits that they can gain from it. They bought the product because of the USP that it was able to present.

But the interesting notion here is that the ingredient that Rosser focused on is not really unique on that toothpaste alone. Actually, most of the commercially available toothpaste have the same ingredient. It just wasn't taken advantage by the business owners as the notion about USP is still new at the time.

So what is your USP? You have to think hard about it because you will be using this in all your next endeavors with regards to marketing. Here are some of the questions that can guide you formulate your USP.

1.    When you think of the word unique, what is the first thing that comes to your mind? Relate this on your business. What do you think makes you unique, in what way and why?

2.    Look at your close competitors. What makes you stand out among them? What is your advantage over the other businesses? What makes you better than them?

3.    What do people often tell about your products and services? What is their feedback about you? Focus on the positive ones. You can make use of those comments to your advantage.

4.    How is the public going to react if your products will be suddenly pulled out? If your services would no longer be available, how do you think are they going to feel? What do you think are they going to miss the most about your company?

Offset poster printing can help you advance towards a healthy competition. But having settled on your USP will help you do it faster.
