Counter mats
Mouse mats won’t last for ever, one day in the not too distant future the mouse will go extinct – poor little beast –so what to do then when all our machines fall idle? Turn to pastures new, sooner rather than later, so here are some new products to think about.
Counter mats have been selling well for some time now; we can produce these in A3 and A2 format although basically any size is possible. Styles available are softmat, armadillo mat, hard top mat, aqua mat and see through mat. This last style is a popular choice for customers whose details change frequently, the lift up flap allows printed information to be inserted and removed time and time again without spoiling the appearance of the mat. Counter mats are useful as an aide memoire for staff in working environments where stock for example changes weekly or where it is difficult to remember every code or reference for many items. A counter mat also delivers a message every time a customer makes a purchase, a very cost effective advertising method. Counter mats would also make perfect place mats for pets’ feeding bowls, having been a dog owner I know all about the delights of doggy food and wet patches all over the kitchen floor, I hope some enterprising pet shop owners out there are thinking about this idea!! To go with the counter mats how about a pen and pen holder? The Fox pen holder has an adhesive base and will not walk away with absent minded customers. It can also be printed with company details and would make a very nice set with a counter mat.
