Hello, everyone.

This is Enta.

There's something that always comes around this time of year in December!

If you're in this industry—or whatever it is—you're bound to get this stuff all the time.

This is it, lol

I think I get an absurd amount every year.

We get a lot of them, too.

And no one takes it home...

 

I always get my favorite calendar from a specific place, so I don't need any others.

(I like calendars that show three months at a time, so I make sure to get one every year.)

 

To be honest, a lot of people find the calendars that various companies bring them to be a nuisance.

With the pandemic and all, my mailbox is piled high with calendars lol

So, I conducted a poll on Twitter to find out what people would most like to receive.

What are some things you’d be happy to receive from service providers during their year-end and New Year’s visits?

It seems that 73.8% of them are similar to gift certificates.

So, you're saying it's best to choose something that won't get in the way.

I think people would be happy to receive this as a book voucher, too~

You can give them to the kids, right?

I use ballpoint pens quite a bit, so they don't really get in the way, and when it comes to ballpoint pens, Frixion is the best, right!?

With LINE Gift, you can get the recipient's LINE ID and even send them a gift—is that right!?
(People love things like Häagen-Dazs coupons, too!)

 

The dismal calendar is 5.7%

It just means nobody wants it, lol.

I'm thinking that this 5.7% probably consists of older people.

The findings show that younger generations don't need them because they manage their calendars and schedules on their smartphones.

So, it means that the generation that can't use it is the one that wants a calendar, right?

 

That's just the way things are these days, isn't it?

The point is that a calendar cannot serve as a sales tool.

Handing out calendars during year-end visits or mailing them out... That's so last year, lol.

 

Is this the time of year when wall calendars and tear-off calendars come to an end?

Is this a transitional period?

Will a new form of calendar emerge?

 

I don't know how it'll turn out, but I'm looking forward to seeing how this sales tool performs in the future lol

Personally, I prefer either a set of 365 ballpoint pens with each one labeled with a different date, or Frixion ballpoint pens!

Well, it's a ballpoint pen that's totally useless, lol (just kidding).

 

This article is simply saying that a calendar isn't necessary, and

It's not like I'm asking for gift certificates or anything like that, lol.

Please really try to understand that one thing.

 

See you later.
