Printing rack cards once is already a significant investment in money for such a great type of promotional print. Printing rack cards twice though for a different purpose altogether can already considered wasteful.
Why? Because in reality, a rack card can be so much more in one package than just a promotional print or a public relation tool. In fact, it can be a multi-purpose printout that can help you in many situations, all in one batch of printing. Let me tell you all about how you can actually do this with your own color rack cards. Below you will find some tips on how to add different functionalities within your own rack card designs.
1. Getting them primed for promotions – Of course, the first basic function of most full color rack cards is to promote something. This can easily be done within your design by placing in a large and highly attractive image, along with an equally highly visible headline. This should attract readers easily towards your rack cards, driving them to read more of the promotional message.
Just make sure that the image and the headline are done professionally with particular care in providing what most readers want to read or look out. This should easily get your color rack cards primed for promoting a product, service or event.
2. Using them for traffic generation – To use your color rack cards for traffic or consumer generation towards your shop or even your website, you will want to use some leading content within them. For example, you can use tear off coupons within the rack card so that people will have a great reason to actually go to your store and get its discount offer.
For online companies, you can actually print a unique marketing code for electronic coupons online. You will be surprised as to whom effective your color rack cards can be by simply adding these lead generating elements.
3. Using them as company representatives – You might have not thought about this yet, but your custom rack cards can also act as your company representatives. By just inserting some special section that describes your company and its great awards or features, you can uplift your firm’s reputation somewhat with your Audience.
Also, by projecting the right themes of business excellence as well as your own specific business personality through the rack cards images and color combinations, you should be able to illicit the right kind of reactions and reputations crucial to your business’ success. That is why it is a great idea to use your color rack cards as specific company representatives.

Those forms can be there for a number of purposes including acting as order forms for direct sales through your rack cards, or maybe even survey forms that help you with market research. So if you do have the space, you can add a whole new dimension of use for your rack cards by adding these special forms.
5. Turning them into an educational tool – Finally, you can also turn your custom rack cards into real educational tools by just reserving a place where tips, references and other useful information can be printed on. This adds real printed value to your rack cards, helping them transcend their original role of promotional prints and turning them into useful references.
