Ideas for Calendars

Although calendar printing is an annual activity, it takes a lot of creativity and ingeniousness on your part to come up with a great and authentic design every time. It's not that easy really to design custom calendars even if you do it once every year. If you plan to print calendars for your business, it will benefit you a great deal if you can think out of the box and look for new ideas to start your calendar printing.

To help you design your custom calendars, here are great ideas that you can use for your marketing needs:

1- Famous modern artwork. There are two major art museums that concentrate on modern art - one in New York City (Museum of Modern Art), and the other is in Paris, France (Musee d'Orsay). These two museums feature a wide array of abstract art which can be difficult to appreciate for many people. But for those who really dig modern art, a collection of contemporary art, specifically abstract paintings, can make your calendar printing a sell-out.

2- Car Wallpapers and Pictures. Definitely, car models look great when done in wallpaper form. Most car manufacturers release their car pictures when they have their launches. You can make use of their pictures and they would be glad for you to help them publicize their new models. And as far as popularity goes, many enthusiasts would appreciate car pictures in your custom calendars for them to keep as souvenirs and wall decors. Coming up this year are the new models of the Acura, Toyota Camry, GMC Acadia, the Bentley and those from BMW, Lexus, and Mercedez.

3- Youth Oriented Programs and Activities. Campaigns geared towards youth empowerment can generate for you a target market for your custom calendars. You can ask various youth-oriented programs and organizations to help you produce pictures and images that would encourage participation and awareness among our young generation.

4- Christmas Drives. Why not foster hope, love, harmony and joy not only in one month, but for the rest of the year? Provide Christmas drives that will serve as your fund-raising activity for a sponsorship program for Christmas. As early on, you can already gather donations in cash or in kind that you will then distribute in the month of giving. Ask established Christmas donation organizations to help you collate pictures of previous drives and programs. And you can then use these print calendars for annual pledges from people who wish to donate for the less fortunate.

There are a lot more great ideas you can use to design your calendar printing. The key is to make it not just an ordinary design project, but a worthwhile one that comes from the goodness within you.
