    So I own a online store where I sale a bunch of items.. from jewelry, to crochet, to printables, to baby stuff and even digital scrapbook items.. I'm going to be giving free samples away (in the mail) and I want to know what you think is best.

    Do you think a sample you can hold in you hand like a ring or charm or hair tie is better than something digital like a printable? I need to make about 2000 of these samples and I don't want to start making something and it not lead to sales you know.

    Which do you think will lead to the most sales.. something you can hold or something you can't ( at least not right away) ?
    Which would you prefer to get? Thanks for you help.. ( If you want a sample let me know :) )

    I think something in the mail (that you can hold onto) would make me more interested in buying rather than some spam email.

    This is because something I can hold makes me know that your company cares and I would want to go back and see if any other free offers are available.

    Just my opinion.

    A thing you can hold which mean physical item.
