What are the specific times of year that academic entities purchase awards?

The savvy digital decorator seeks business all year long. Get plugged in to each organization to find out what’s happening each week and month.

For example, we help out a number of schools with their robotics competition. There are lots of opportunities for recognition products for students, teams, schools, and sponsors. Don’t sit back and wait for organization to contact you. Grab a school’s yearbook to see what events and organizations might be an opportunity.

Be proactive, know what’s going on, and be part of their calendars. Plant seeds all year long by making samples to display. Exploit your successes by posting your product photos on your Facebook/Instagram pages (but note: blur the names of children before you post).
