Author: Getaways On Display

Getaways On Display has a new, specific to central Pennsylvania, brochure distribution program that gets to visitors while they are on the go, and still making plans.

Where should they stay?  What sounds like the most fun – amusement parks or horse trails? Shopping or getting a bite to eat?

We supply brochures, locally, at a growing number of attractions, hotels and Bed & Breakfasts throughout central Pennsylvania. Reach travelers in Lancaster, Chester and surrounding counties including PA Dutch Country and the Brandywine Valley. Getaways On Display – Think Local Brochure Distribution

Learn how to get your brochures into the hands of travelers driving in or through Pennsylvania. The Turnpike Plazas are now available to everyone – even out of state brochures!  Millions of consumers take tourism brochures from our 15 Welcome Centers, 35 Interstate Rest Areas and 17 Turnpike Plazas. Brochure Display at Pennsylvania Turnpike Plazas and Rest Areas

We’re more than space in a display rack. We’re a partner that helps you leverage your marketing budget to reach customers in the most cost-effective and strategic way. We’ve been in business, headquartered right here in Lancaster, PA, for 25 years.

After twenty-two years of doing business in person and on the phone, we thought it would be fun to actually show people who we are and what we do.  Here’s the first in a series of videos introducing the people and projects of Getaways On Display.  Enjoy! (and pass it on)

Getaways On Display was featured at the PA Dutch Convention and Visitors Bureau’s annual Reception and Awards Presentation in 2012. The video shown at the event showcases the history and growth of our company as we expanded to meet travel and tourism needs.

Welcome to the blog section of our new website — News & Insights.

Usually the posts here will consist of information and education about the brochure distribution industry, brochure design tips and updates about our literature display racks—as well as industry news, from other sources, that we think is interesting and relevant.

But, today we want to celebrate the launch of our new website.

The internet, like Getaways On Display, is now more than twenty years old. When we began, we never dreamed we’d sit in meetings discussing things like “user interface” and “keywords” and “search engines.”

As we dove into the process we realized that our original concerns about electronic media were off target. As our front page says, 78% of mobile device users (the people who are truly at the cutting edge of electronic media) still prefer to make actual ticket and travel purchasing decisions using other means. This might be a brochure, a phone call or a website. Mid-Atlantic Travelers & Tourists Took 7,632,000 brochures from our displays in 2012.

These days, it’s all about options and giving the customer not just what they want, but the media they are most comfortable using.

We are excited because this new website does just that. You can participate in brochure distribution or purchase a display rack by filling out a simple, on line form.

The new graphics show maps of our distribution areas, tell you about our 600+ clients, and let you browse shapes, sizes and colors of products.

All three divisions of Getaways are now included in a single website, making it easier for customers to see all that we offer.

Just as we have always innovated and grown to meet our customer needs when it comes to our products and distribution packages, we are now as innovative in our approach to our electronic media, marketing, sales and distribution.

We hope that you enjoy our new website.

As always, if you have a question or comment please don’t hesitate to get in touch. We’d love to hear from you.

And, yes, we still have real, live, people answering the phones. Internet aside, sometimes it’s good to be a little “old school.”

A great video from the International Association of Professional Brochure Distributors (IAPBD) on the power of brochures. Getaways On Display is a proud member of IAPBD and we look forward to hosting the International Conference later this year.
