Strathmore Introduces “Strathstore” Rewards

Strathmore Artist Papers™ would like to reward retailers, their customers, and store employees by offering unique Strathmore branded promotional items. Retailers can earn points simply by purchasing Strathmore products, and then they can redeem those points for free promotional materials on the brand new “Strathstore” portion of the Strathmore Retailer and Distributor Tool site.

This program is open to all brand rewards customers, iAMart customers, and AGA customers. Point balances will be uploaded into retailer accounts in the Strathstore twice a year (February/August) based on retailer purchases through distribution. This added segment of the Brand Rewards program is an extra benefit for purchasing Strathmore products.

There are a wide variety of products that will be offered in this new point program, all having varying point levels. Some of the promotional items have a direct contribution from artists, including a t-shirt with feature art created by Erik Davis. There is also a limited time offer on a mug featuring watercolor artist Eleanor Mill. Other items are useful everyday products such as tote bags, can koozies, umbrellas and pencil bags, which feature the Strathmore logo. The more retailers purchase of Strathmore products, the more points they can earn and exchange for promotional products!

Products can be used in a variety of ways, depending on the amount of materials earned by retailers. If lots of points are collected and redeemed for items, stores can think about running an in-store promotion to give out those products to their customers. Retailers can even think about taking one item, and running a “giveaway” entry to boost their email/social media following. These items are also great to give to store employees.

Each retailer will need to complete a Strathstore registration form in order to access this special portion of the Strathmore Retailer Tools website. Each retailer will also be asked to designate only ONE authorized agent to redeem points in the Strathstore. This individual will be the only authorized agent to make Strathstore promotional material selections.

Just in time for Winter Back to School, Strathmore is offering a sign-up bonus for a limited time. Complete registration to participate in the Strathstore program before 1/1/2017, and receive 175 bonus points! All documentation and account information must be received by Strathmore prior to 12:00 am 1/1/2017. This extra sign-up bonus is for current Strathmore Brand Rewards customers, iAMart customers, and AGA customers. To start taking advantage of Strathstore benefits, please contact your Strathmore or MacPherson’s Account Manager for full program details!

If you aren’t currently taking full advantage of the Strathmore Brand Rewards program, ask your MacPherson’s or Strathmore Account Manager about the 2017 program details. Retailers can earn cash incentives, pick their own products for discounts, and now earn free promotional materials by simply purchasing Strathmore Artist Papers items.
