Choosing analog promotional clocks as part of your overall marketing campaign can be an interesting way to add a new twist, or inject a little new vibe in to your existing line up of promotional products. There are essentially three different ways you can take the design decision for an analog promotional clock; either upscale and classic, trendy and sheik, or novelty and fun. Each one of these design categories lends itself well to the arena of analog promotional clocks. Whether you are designing the clock yourself, or hiring a product designer, think of analog promotional clock is your blank canvas just waiting to be painted.



When designing an analog promotional clock there are three physical parameters to take into account that you will then base the rest of your design off of. First you need to decide on the shape of your analog promotional clock. Round is of course the old standby, however if you are looking for something perhaps little bit more hip and trendy then you may wish to go with a square shaped clock. In oval shaped clock will give you a much more traditional look that can easily be dressed up to resemble an antique clock; and more funky shapes like triangles, stars, or even freeform shapes can really move your analog promotional clock from the realm of the mundane to hip and trendy. No matter what shape you choose for your promotional analog clock you will of course have to leave at least the center of it circular to accommodate for the moving clock hands. The only way to get around this would be to use an LCD screen that represents the traditional movements of an analog clock, however then your promotional analog clock would be digital; and that is not what we are going for.

After determining the shape of your analog promotional clocks you'll want to pick an appropriate frame design that best suits your clocks shape. If you are going for a classy antiqued oval-shaped clock then you'll probably want to choose a natural wood frame, or at the least a wood veneer. When choosing a frame for circular shaped clocks, be it an oval or a perfect Circle, you are free to choose as thick a frame as you want with any number of bevels or embellishments. If you are going with a free-form shaped analog promotional clock then you'll want to choose a thin enough frame that allows you to clearly define the edges and the shape.

Lastly you will want to choose an appropriate faceplate that matches both the shape and frame style of your analog promotional clock. This is where you or your product designer will really get to show off your design skills, not to mention place your product's logo or slogan for everyone to see. There are no hard and fast rules here for designing an appropriate faceplate for your analog promotional clock, so just have fun and make sure to include your company's slogan or logo alongside a great design that fits with the rest of the analog promotional clock.
