Guillow ‘Flying Messenger’ Airplanes are Nostalgic, Inexpensive and FUN !

They put a smile on your face, a childhood memory in your mind and sell themselves … here are some ideas to help your promotion TAKE OFF.

Case Studies:

  1. When a large company wanted to promote sales, with a free trip to Bali as the goal.  Balsa Gliders were mailed to each sales office with information on how to qualify for the trip.  The gliders were printed with the words “Come and fly with us to our Bali Resort!”  The gliders got the job done and resulted in a successful year and record turnouts in Bali!
  2. A computer company recently used the Balsa Glider to hype their product at a trade show.  The message read “Windows that Fly!”  Not only did the booth attract potential customers, the gliders soared above the other exhibitors with their advertisements.
  3. Politicians know how important it is to be noticed and recognized.  One small town representative used the Balsa Glider to get his name out during the local community parade.  During the parade he launched the gliders along the parade route.  You too, can get your message into the right hands with a high flying specialty item like the Balsa Glider.
  4. A fast food chain ordered 8,000 Balsa Gliders, 1,000 for each of its 8 stores to use in their kids meal packets. What was to be a month’s supply was depleted in just two weeks.
  5. At the grand opening of a retail store, the new owners were distributing a variety of small inexpensive gifts, 8 out of 10 children selected the Balsa Glider as the gift they wanted. It became difficult for the owners to say “no” to the children who returned again and again selecting the Balsa Glider as their gift.
  6. During a recent Air Show, an oil company wanted to promote it’s fuel card among show attendees. As a reward for the adults, the company offered a $10 credit toward their first fill-up when the application was approved. As a reward for their children to get their parents to stop at the display, the company offered Balsa Gliders to each of the kids while the parents learned more about the fuel card. The kids – who came to see airplanes – took one home thanks to the fast thinking company and the Balsa Glider.
  7. Anyone who has been to the doctor or the dentist with a child knows that the reward at the end of an office visit can quiet an anxious child. The “goody” bag often contains a number of inexpensive items from which the child can select his or her reward. One resourceful dentist purchased some Balsa Gliders imprinted with his name and address on them. The results were twofold: a happy patient and advertising for the dentist.
