Sticker Giveaway!

Designers and marketers alike are constantly looking for new products to showcase their brands. As new gimmicks and trends arise we see an emergence of popularity in style colors and new ideas to push the envelope.

A recent marketing tool that is been on the rise and may catch you by surprise is the sticker. Yes, the sticker. As kids are excitement with the sticker was tangible as seen from most possessions owned by child and riddled with the sticky gummy remains. But in the professional market stickers have once again claim their rightful place.

More and more, we're seeing stickers used to promote:

Events
New Products
New Releases
General Brand Awareness
Giveaways and Promotions
And almost anything else you can come up with!

There are 4 basic sticker layouts—circle, square, oval, rectangle.

Choosing the shape that will best further your purpose is the first step to solid design, but keep in mind if you will be having a large number of the stickers printed, you might prefer to go with the die cut variety. By using a die cut variance with your printer, a custom shape is always an option and you can literally have the sticker cut to resemble your specific logo or any other fun shapes.

To begin, let's take a moment and look at the strong sticker design, some of my own designs, and some found in online showcases.
