Get Co-Op Money To Pay For Marketing
If you sell brand-name items or services of any kind, ask your suppliers about getting co-op ad money.
Many companies will pay you a fee if you include their name, logo, or promotional line in your advertising. Ad agencies are notorious for not telling you about co-op and media reps frequently never get around to it.
Make it your business to ask your suppliers about their co-op ad programs. Some businesses cleverly include several co-op names and logos in their ads. As a results, many have half of their marketing costs paid by their suppliers.
There is an additional benefit to going after co-op ad money. Since most co-op programs are run by big manufacturers, you end up mentioning lots of big names in your advertising.
This gives your business more credibility making your look bigger and more established.
