Hottest New Marketing Strategy For the Social Media Era: Kitchen Magnets

In our current world of facebooking your twitterlog and burning your flickrmeme, I find it very refreshing that the only marketing effort a few local businesses I deal with undertake....is delivering me a new kitchen magnet each year. 

I buy firewood from "The Woodman" (no extra charge for the attached little calendar) and I call the same garage door fixer guys if I have issues.

Don't underestimate the power of simplicity, a handshake, and magnetism.

Yes i love this tactic. My realtor sends me an ISU and Iowa combined football schedule magnet with their faces/info off to the side. They give me useful info and market themselves, right on my fridge.
