Why Choose Tru Art as Your Calendar Advertising Partner?

As promotional product distributors, you are constantly searching for solutions that create real, lasting impact for your clients. A difficult task when competing with a perception that digital is the way to go. So, how do you help brands stay visible, relevant, and remembered, all year long?

That’s where Tru Art Advertising Calendars becomes more than just a supplier. We are your strategic partner in storytelling, visibility, and marketing success.

Are calendars still relevant?

Let’s address the question some distributors are still asking: Are calendars a valuable marketing tool today?

Yes, and here’s why: calendars are one of the few promotional products that sit in front of customers 365 days a year. They aren’t just giveaways. They are functional marketing assets with the power to:

 • Deliver thousands of brand impressions at a fraction of a penny each.
 • Drive daily engagement in homes, offices, and workspaces.
 • Become part of the recipient’s everyday environment, subtly reinforcing brand recall, month after month.

In fact, research shows calendars are viewed 3 — 10 times a day. That’s up to 3,650 brand touches per year for just one calendar.

So, the better question is: Are you helping your clients unlock this kind of consistent, cost-effective visibility?

Why choose Tru Art?

Because we are more than a print partner. We help you bring your clients’ brand stories to life, visually, thoughtfully, and sustainably.

Here’s how:

1. We help tell your client’s story — through strategic design

Every calendar we produce is an opportunity to highlight a brand’s identity and values. From stunning visuals to custom imprinting, we ask: What message does your client want to communicate? Who are they trying to reach?

Then we help you shape that story into a tangible, functional product that is seen daily. Whether it’s agriculture, construction, real estate, healthcare, or community outreach, we tailor every piece to help your client stand out and stay memorable.

We don’t just print calendars. We help businesses show who they are, one month at a time.

2. We co-create — never cookie-cutter

Distributors who work with Tru Art know we don’t offer one-size-fits-all solutions. We collaborate with you to understand your client’s goals, timeline, budget, and brand personality, then create calendars that feel intentional and well-executed.

We can help you answer client questions like:

 • “How can I use a calendar to tell my brand story year-round?”
 • “Can I include product highlights, QR codes, or monthly themes?”
 • “What’s the best calendar style for my audience?”

You don’t need to have all the answers; we’re here to build them with you.

3. We make YOU look good

You bring value to your clients when you offer more. When you partner with Tru Art, you are backed by over a century of craftsmanship, innovation, and support.

We offer:

 • Pre-sales support, including virtual samples and mockups.
 • U.S.-based manufacturing for speed, reliability, and control
 • Environmentally conscious printing practices
 • Fast, responsive service that helps you win business.

Plus, we are constantly evolving to meet modern marketing needs, including interactive calendar options with QR codes, custom themes, or cross-channel integration.

4. We help you SELL calendars confidently

One challenge we have heard: some distributors aren’t sure how to position calendars to clients.

That’s why we arm you with:

 • High-impact data points (e.g., “Calendars are seen thousands of times annually”)
 • Sales talking points (“What’s your client’s most consistent marketing touchpoint?”)
 • Customizable visuals and storytelling tools

We help you turn ‘just a calendar’ into a marketing asset your client cannot ignore.

5. We care about what you care about

Our values align with yours: integrity, partnership, sustainability, and long-term thinking. From our eco-conscious inks and recycled materials to our family-owned legacy and Midwest roots, we show up with authenticity, transparency, and accountability.

So… why choose Tru Art?

Because when you partner with us, you get more than a print vendor; you gain a creative ally, a support system, and a team that is deeply invested in helping you grow.

We believe in the power of calendars. We believe in the power of storytelling. And we believe that when we work together, your clients get marketing tools that work, and your business thrives.

Let’s tell better brand stories — together.
