Have you heard of this new business called Send a Ball? Stop sending your clients a card or a corporate souvenir when you can send them a ball! Yes, a ball. Two Chicago sisters have added a twist to promotional marketing by sending inflated colored balls with messages imprinted on them.

The start of the business took off as one of the sisters describes:

“One of the first balls I sent was “have a ball with your new baby”, the response was so overwhelming I did it again and again. A few years later while standing in line at the post office with balls, I was approached by an elderly man that asked about the balls and asked if I could send a ball to a friend who was ill, I said ok and it made him smile.”

That’s a great idea to really stand out in your client’s eye, rather than the square greeting card that says season’s greetings. Love it? Send a ball; the mailing ball is available for just $19.99 to get a new way to send your messages.
