Product-specific Content
DMIA's web site includes a large database of products you can use to create daily product features for your web site. Click on the "Sales Ideas Database" link on DMIA's home page. For each product in the database, you'll find features and benefits, plus a web-ready image that is suitable for color laser printouts. (Sorry, these images are not available in high resolution for lithographic printing.)
- Go to the Sales Idea Database (http://www.dmia.org/dmiasearch/am_pm/search/index.cfm). There are several search options. The simplest method is to browse an alphabetical list of every product that has been displayed. You can also sort products by vertical market (financial, hospitality, medical, etc.), client type (ad agency, auto dealership, bank, etc.), or job title (administrator, building manager, chief of security, etc.).
- Once you select a product, use the "product data sheet" function at the bottom of the page. By creating a product data sheet, you're creating a promotion for that particular product. Your data sheet can be plain or customized with information about your company. Either way, feel free to edit the product information so that it is written directly for your end user clients and prospects.
- Save the graphic image to your local hard drive. Use the image and the text to create your new Web page.
