We have operators nationwide that are true credit to the Promotions Direct business. From meagre beginnings we now have some of the fastest growing business operators around. Typically there are two levels of involvement with Promotions Direct and the total support infrastructure is a proven winner for all.

To get an idea of the profitability in supplying products that are both decorated on your own equipment and those that are indented for production, the following examples are scenarios from one of our business owners. They are not extraordinary in any way and are normal levels of profitability that are achieved once a client base is established.

As you can see there are a variety of products here that have been traded. Naturally not all sales periods are the same and it does take time to gather the clients and produce quotations as well as stock orderings etc. We strongly suggest that you conduct a market survey and speak with business within your area before committing to Promotions Direct. It is important that you consult your financial advisor as well to determine your ability to operate this business and speak with existing business owners for their experience.
