How to Place Bulk Orders: Tips & Ideas
Share
Whether you’re planning a fundraiser, stocking up for your business, or creating unique keepsakes for an event, placing a bulk order of custom magnets can be one of the smartest ways to get maximum value. At Mini Memory Co., we make the process simple, cost-effective, and stress-free. Here’s a practical guide to help you get started:
1. Know Your Purpose
Before placing your bulk order, consider what you’ll be using the magnets for. Are they:
- Marketing giveaways for your business?
- Souvenirs for a school or community event?
- Party favors for a wedding or milestone birthday?
- Fundraising items for a nonprofit?
Having a clear goal in mind helps you choose the right design, size, and quantity.
2. Plan Your Design
Design is key when ordering in bulk. A few tips:
- Keep it simple and bold - easy-to-read text and high-quality images work best.
- Brand it smartly - for businesses, include your logo, website, or contact info.
- Make it personal - for events, add names, dates, or themed graphics.
3. Order the Right Quantity
When it comes to bulk orders, more really is more. Ordering in larger quantities often reduces the cost per magnet, making it budget-friendly in the long run.
- Small events: 40-100 magnets
- Community fundraisers: 250-500 magnets
- Business promotions or trade shows: 500-1,000+ magnets
Think about your audience size and consider ordering extra- it’s better to have a few left over than to run short.
4. Time It Right
Bulk orders require a bit more time to produce, especially during busy seasons. To stay stress-free:
- Place your order a few weeks ahead of your event or campaign.
- Factor in design revisions, production time, and shipping.
5. Explore Creative Uses
Bulk magnets aren’t just for promotions-they can be versatile tools:
- Fundraising: Sell themed magnets at community events.
- Event souvenirs: Hand them out at weddings, reunions, or festivals.
- Customer appreciation: Include magnets in gift bags or with purchases.
- Education: Schools and daycares can use them for reminders, safety info, or classroom rewards.
