Magnets or Bumper Stickers?

by Makota Banned

Do you think it is better to use car magnets or bumper stickers? I have seen some very attractive care magnets advertising different websites. I figure magnets would be better, bigger print and all. However, I would have fewer cars with magnets than I would with bumper stickers. So which is better?

    the bigger the magnet the harder it is to place on the back of the car..side door magnets dont get much visibility. The bumper sticker is Ok, but usually too small for an effective read. I would look at rear window wraps, these (if done properly) look great and are very eyecatching..Plus the view area is huge.You cannot miss them..

    I had a duh moment at a Saturn dealership where I was test driving a car a few years ago. I was test driving a camry or something like that and thought it odd that he didn't just snap a plate on. The dealer plates they use have screws.

    Takeaway: not all cars are covered in metal.

    Can you define better? What is your end goal? A call to action? Website visit? A Phone call?

    Bumper stickers are for politics, funny sayings etc. Car magnets can at least ID your car but don't expect a great response from any of them.

    Have you considered direct mail? Cost would be slightly higher but response would be easier to test and improve

    Do you know you can have Re-useable Stickers???
    If you dont then now you know. Its called Cling. Static cling is made of vinyl and have static charge on the back instead of sticky adhesive on the back. You can only use them for certain time.
    According to your solution i think you will be better off with Bumper stickers because once they stick they are there for good, No chance for loosing them like magnets. They are there until you take them off so you have more chances for people to look at them.

      I recently sold 5,000 "Magnetic" Bumper Stickers for $10,000 ($2 ea)!

      Why? Because of what it said on the Mags.

      So....What were the words on the Mags that brought THIS much Cash?

    You can buy flexible magnet sheets at Michaels, Joann Fabrics, and AC Moore and probably Hobby Lobby. Some have their own adhesive, some don't. Just stick the bumper sticker to the magnet sheet and cut it out carefully.

    I've used magnets successfully before and would stay with those. The next thing I'm about to try is the back window wrap.

      well both the magnets and bumper stickers can be used on the screen and its depend on the likes and dislikes of particular persons i would prefer bumper stickers as compare to magnets because these are quit cheep as compare to magnets and you can easily remove them without any paint problem which some one mentioned in the above post via using vinyl material bumper stickers can small or large in sizes you can design custom order according to your need and desire.
