The Value Of Free Stuff…Sometimes, It’s Actually Worth The Price

Published on by Russ BowmanLeave a comment

I visited my doctor recently for my annual check-up. During the exam, he lamented that a lot of his patients didn’t take the importance of preventive care seriously enough. I joked that I’m actually one of those people, but since my health care insurance covers an annual check-up at no charge to me, I do it simply because I’m a sucker for free stuff. Again, I was JOKING…I firmly believe in the importance of preventive health care, and strongly encourage you, dear reader, to do the same and get annual check-ups.

Well, I was HALF joking, anyway…I AM a sucker for free stuff. In fact, my doctor and I went on to talk about how effective free stuff (like t-shirts) was at getting consumers to sign up for new credit cards, magazine subscriptions, etc. We had a good laugh, and I kept laughing…until I got home and looked in my t-shirt drawer…

Of course, these kinds of promotions can be great advertising – that’s obviously why they’re so popular, and at EXAIR, we’re keenly aware of that. Now, you can’t wear our free stuff for everyone to see, but, in the case of our current seasonal promotion, you can get something very useful for free:

Through May 31st, we’re so intent on helping you get into Spring Cleaning mode that, with the purchase of one of our Industrial Vacuums, we’ll give you a FREE Vac-u-Gun. VACpromo_186x149 How can an efficient, quiet compressed air operated Industrial Vacuum help get your spring cleaning into full swing?  If you need help answering that question, give me a call.  They’re all in stock, and we ship same day (U.S.) with orders received by 3pm EST.

Gifts and Free Stuff

Published on by Russ BowmanLeave a comment

According to the department stores, TV commercials, and at least one radio station here in Cincinnati (who started playing ‘Sounds-Of-The-Season’ music a couple of weeks ago), the holiday season is upon us, and we better get full-on into Gift Mode. It’s not my intent, nor my place, to discuss the spiritual, cultural, or financial aspects or reasoning behind these campaigns…it’s just serving to make me wonder what my wife wants for Christmas; that’s all. I’ve resolved (again) to not wait until the last minute to begin my shopping. I’d wish myself luck with that, but I’ve seen this show before…

You’d think the availability of internet shopping would ease the burden, but I already get lost in the mall…unless I know exactly what I’m looking for, I’ll hunt endlessly for the “next better idea” and lose track of every previous “perfectly acceptable” one.

It’s not exactly a gift related to the season – EXAIR always has a promotion of some sort going on – but, if you’re interested in some pretty darn useful Free Stuff, we’re currently offering a free Safety Air Gun with the purchase of a Super Air Knife.  In fact, even if you don’t need a Super Air Knife, the Soft Grip Safety Air Gun is an affordable, effective, quiet, and safe solution to your hand-held blow off/cleaning/cooling/drying applications.

I’ll close with a word of warning: there may be situations where this could be considered an appropriate gift for your wife. If you are 100% certain that this is true, I won’t stop you. If you have any doubt whatsoever, though, don’t even try it. Same goes for cookware, vacuum cleaners, etc…I hope I’m not telling you anything you don’t already know. But, if you do go that route, leave my name out of it. I’ve got enough on my plate right now anyway.
