Image marketing isn't new. It's been around for decades.

Many of the top corporations around the world use image marketing every day.

RE/MAX uses "Nobody Sells Real Estate Like RE/MAX".

The RE/MAX balloon magically enables the realtor to personally deliver the good news regardless of where the client may be. This is a wonderful example of image marketing. These ads make evoke a feeling of trust. The message; RE/MAX goes all out to deliver top quality service to it's clients.

Nike's "Just Do It" brought them millions in revenue.

Remember Allstate's slogan "You're In Good Hands With Allstate"?

These are not mere words. They are powerful, image marketing tools that evoke an emotion. Using postcards to deliver your message is one of the most affordable ways in which you can use image marketing.

Realtors have been marketing with postcards for years. They use them because they get results.

What are Image Smarter Post Cards?

Image smarter postcards are high gloss, laminated, full color postcards, printed on high quality card stock which relay a message that stirs and emotion or causes a response in the recipient.

They deliver your message in a crisp, vibrant manner making it more appealing to the prospect.

An image smarter post card will:

>Grab the recipient's attention.
