TradeNet’s Slinky® Notes voted “Most Fun” at ASI Orlando Show Product Showcase
Click to see Slinky machine in action
There’s something about a Slinky® toy that puts a smile on people’s faces. Obviously the same is true for TradeNet’s version of the Slinky® brand, our variety being in the form of Adhesive Notes. Slinky® Adhesive Notes were voted winners of the “Most Fun” category in the popular Product Showcase at the recent ASI Show in Orlando.
Helping the Slinky® Notes stand out from the scores of unique promotional products on display in the ASI showcase is a mechanical device that actually demonstrates how Slinky® Notes actually work like its namesake. The display certainly attracts attention and is routinely captured on smart phone videos. (Best if all, it directs Show attendees to TradeNet’s booth!)
TradeNet is the exclusive seller of Slinky® Adhesive Notes with alternating repositionable adhesive at the top of each note. The pads can be ordered in 50- and 100-sheet pads. (Higher per-pad sheet counts can be custom ordered.) Standard and custom shapes available. Notes are printed with four-color process on the front and spot color on the back. Click here for more information.
By the way… Who out there remembers the song from the old Slinky® television commercials?
If your front door to this blog (TradeNetIdeas.com) was TradeNet’s website, then you no doubt noticed things are a bit different. Our home page has been modified.
Changes to TradeNet’s website are designed for improved navigation and use. You’ll not see a dramatic difference in the general appearance, as we didn’t want to rock a boat that was sailing along quite smoothly. TradeNet’s “Products” and “Themes” remain prominent and in the same convenient index format.
The biggest difference is the site is cleaner and the graphic modules have been updated. Two of the site’s most heavily used features – the login box and the search engine – are now in less-bulky drop-down presentations at the top of the page. Also noteworthy is the return of the VIP Club and added emphasis on this blog. The site will be updated on a regular basis with different graphics and promotions and blog content.
Here’s a cool feature that’s in the works: TradeNet’s website will soon be available to distributors as a customizable template. Distributors can either use the template as their own website or as a direct link to TradeNet products. Stay tuned!
