VISTAPRINT ADDS MOUSE PADS TO PROMOTIONAL PRODUCT LINE

Versatile Product Adds Another Dimension for Small Businesses and Everyday
Customers


VistaPrint Limited (Nasdaq:VPRT), the small business marketing company, today announced that it has expanded its promotional product line with the addition of customizable mouse pads. Joining an already robust line of promotional products that includes pens, hats, T-shirts, keychains, and sticky notes, these mouse pads are a perfect way for small businesses to promote their products and services and stay on top of mind with existing customers.

VistaPrint has consistently brought unique, customizable, and easy to design promotional products to market over the past year plus. As the popularity of these products has expanded, so has the demand for other products that can have a similar impact. Because VistaPrint is leveraging proprietary, cutting edge technology to mass produce these products, adding another like mouse pads in a rapid time frame was possible. Like many of the company’s existing promotional products, both small business and everyday customers can design and order them in quantities as low as one and have them in as little as three business days.

“Our customers have really embraced the promotional products that we have brought online in the past, and another that made sense to offer them was mouse pads,” said John-Henry Forster, product marketing associate at VistaPrint. “It’s another product that lends itself to the creativity and unique designs that our customers come up with, and it’s something that virtually everyone uses daily. While it can be very effective for small businesses - like pens, T-shirts, and hats can be - it’s also something a mom can make for herself with pictures of kids, pets, and family.”

VistaPrint’s mouse pads have a cloth top and come with a rubber backing so it
won’t slide on a desk. They measure a standard 9.25 inches by 7.75 inches. Customers can choose from over 300 designs, or upload their own photos and designs. With text, there’s room for a prominent company name, message and web or physical address or phone number. Prices start at just $7.99 for one mouse pad. Ordering is simple.
