Isn't she lovely? What's with this sweet inflatable duck who appears everywhere? Last night I saw a story on the news about "how brilliant she looked floating into Hong Kong then suddenly she deflated and turned into a flat piece of yellow vinyl on the water.  Has she appeared near you inflated?  Send us your pics, we will publish them for you but they must be originals or copyright offered for reprint.

What if... you bought one of these inflatable ducks to put on your pond, pool, lake, tethered to your dock, set on the river to float with the 'tubers'?

If you own a party rental company this could be a real winner for rentals for grand openings, attention getters, secret showings, etc.  Visit http://BIGinflatableThings.com and find our selections from inflatables' suppliers and manufacturers.

BIG Summer Sizzlers


MAGIC JUMP Surf-A-Curve
Dare I speak too soon, again, but I think it is Spring weather and it's going to be a short one.  It will turn quickly into SUMMER!  How many "S" words can you think of for this time of year?  Summer, Slides, Slip and Slide, Surf, Splash, Sno Cones and syrups, Shaved Ice, Swim, Screens (movies), Shade, Sun, Sunscreen, Sunglasses, Shorts, Sea, Swimsuit, Skies, Showers...

Do some "gorilla marketing" to increase Summer dates on your calendar.  Try some of these great promotional items you can print your logo on for small prices: sunscreens, sunglasses, sand buckets... they don't have to be "S" words, use visors, flip-flops, chapsticks, picnic items, t-shirts, and so many more under $5 items that kids love and will use them around their friends for weeks to come.

Include these items as "Free Promos".  For every party booked June through August (or while supplies last) guests receive a "Summer Sizzler" free.  This costs much less than advertising locally in print, radio, local yellow pages, or certainly tv.  Make sure your phone number or website address or both are printed on these give-away promos. 

"I want that company who offers free stuff at parties".  Kids to kids.  They are the ones requesting the party services afterall.

Promote your offer on flyers:  "Summer Sizzlers freebies for parties with every event you book with us"
More ideas for a scorching, sweltering, sticky, sweaty Summer ahead. Hey, I didn't say they are all Good "S" words!

BIG!
