Nationwide Rental Company Uses College Football Schedule Magnets

Case Study: Enhancing Brand Visibility with College Football Conference Schedule Magnets

Company Overview

A leading national construction equipment rental company, serving contractors, real estate developers, and infrastructure firms, sought an innovative way to maintain brand presence among key industry professionals. Operating in a competitive market, the company needed a marketing strategy that would ensure continuous exposure to its website, toll-free number, and QR-code for easy equipment rental access.

Challenge

With numerous competitors in the construction equipment rental industry, the company aimed to stay top-of-mind among project managers, site supervisors, and decision-makers. Traditional marketing methods such as brochures and direct mail had limited engagement. The company needed a promotional item that would be both useful and prominently displayed in job site offices, trailers, and other key work spaces.

Solution

Starting several years ago, the company implemented a nationwide promotional campaign utilizing large magnets featuring college football schedules for major conferences: SEC, ACC, PAC-12, and BIG 10. Each company location across the country received magnets tailored to the most relevant college football conferences in their region.

Key design features included:

  • Regional College Football Schedules to increase the magnets’ usefulness and appeal.
  • Large Print Area displaying the company’s website, toll-free number, and QR-code for quick access to rental services.
  • Durable Magnetic Material ensuring longevity on job site refrigerators, metal desks, and office boards.

The magnets were strategically distributed to:

  • Construction sites
  • Building managers
  • Real estate developers
  • Road builders
  • Large-scale construction companies

Results

Over the course of several years, this initiative led to significant benefits:

  1. Increased Brand Recognition: The magnets were frequently used as reference tools, keeping the company’s contact details visible daily.
  2. Enhanced Customer Engagement: The QR-code allowed construction professionals to quickly access the company’s inventory and rental services.
  3. Widespread Distribution: By leveraging local branches, the campaign ensured targeted and effective distribution across key markets.
  4. Long-Term Exposure: Unlike disposable marketing materials, these magnets remained in use throughout entire football seasons and beyond.
  5. Stronger Regional Connections: Customizing the magnets for different areas reinforced the company’s local presence while maintaining national brand consistency.

By aligning the campaign with a beloved national pastime, the construction equipment rental company successfully increased engagement and brand visibility, reinforcing its position as an industry leader across multiple regions.
