Learn morePre-Made Versus Custom Die Cut Stickers -- The Difference is Undeniable
There is a difference between buying an off-the-shelf pre-made stickers and custom die cut stickers, ya know? For starters, ordering a pre-printed sticker just gets you a mass-produced repeat of what everyone else already has, and we’re not about that at Stickerbeat. If you are looking for something that is uniquely distinctive and one-of-a-kind, then you know we are talking about your ability to fully personalize a custom sticker that you design. Sure you can go to a big box store and buy an already printed sticker, but isn’t that boring?! Why would anyone want something that’s hanging in their neighbor’s home? We give you the tools to create something magical and that’s custom just for you and nobody else. Most store-bought stickers are made of paper or thin grade vinyl that just isn’t up to snuff. You can’t compare the quality, the finish or even the adhesion. That’s why when you buy cheap internet or big box store stickers they tend to peel up, bubble and just won’t stay down. A sticker that is constantly falling off your wall or other surfaces just isn’t any fun, is it?! Inferior paper or thin vinyl stickers are just nowhere near as durable as our super high-quality 3M Scotchcal Graphic Vinyl that is 4mm thick. You will notice with those other low-grade stickers that they will fade and age poorly and their glue starts to break down quickly. That’s not the case with a Stickerbeat die cut sticker, because they are weatherproof, fade resistant and they stay vibrant for years. In addition, every Stickerbeat sticker is laminated on top for extra protection. Our stickers are tough and they will stand the test of time. EVERYTHING about your sticker can be customized for you at Stickerbeat—size, shape and even color. Don’t be scared to go wild with your design because we will be able to print it out for you no matter what! If you want your sticker to be cut right up to the tippy edge with no excess showing, our Kiss Cut stickers are the way to go. No matter how swirly and complex your design may be, our laser-guided cutting machine is able to cut your image out with high precision right on the borderline. We have circle stickers, square stickers and bumper stickers for your car if that’s what you need, too. We can make you a sticker that can go on a mirror, window or glass with our clear stickers that feature a transparent background; and if you want to stop a crowd in their tracks, then our reflective stickers might be in order. Just use our simple template to make yours or contact our dandy customer service reps to help you design one. Whether your business needs a logo sticker or product sticker; or if you want to design a photo sticker or wedding sticker—we’ve got you covered at Stickerbeat. Raise awareness for your business if you are having a sale, there is no reason to use a pre-printed boring and formulaic sticker that anybody else can buy when you can have a die cut sticker that is all your own. Forget ordinary, make it extraordinarily YOU with a personalized custom sticker all YOUR own!

Using Stickers as a Powerful E-Commerce Marketing Tool We will be speaking with attendees in the IRCE Exhibit Hall about how their businesses can take full advantage of the benefits of using stickers as a marketing tool.

Free sticker giveaways can support your internet marketing strategy—and that's exactly what we will be demonstrating in real time at Booth 173. Specifically, here are the ways stickers can pull their weight as a piece of the e-commerce marketing plan: Increasing brand awareness Stickers generate more impressions than many other forms of marketing. Building customer loyalty By giving away stickers, you build a network of loyal advocates who will spend more money with your business and will also recommend it to others. Increasing customer engagement Stickers act as endorsements for your company and products. By giving your branded stickers to customers, you are turning them into walking and talking billboards for you. Stickerbeat's Stickers Beat the Competition We use 3M Scotchcal Graphic Film for all our sticker products. This is the highest quality vinyl in the industry, recognized for its durability. 3M Scotchcal Graphic Film can withstand even the harshest outdoor conditions. We also use UV-resistant inks for our stickers, so they won’t fade after a few months of exposure to sunlight. Your stickers will look beautiful and glossy for years. We'll See You at IRCE! Be sure to look for us at The Internet Retailer Conference & Exhibition, June 5-8 in Chicago. We'll be looking for you at Booth 173!
Learn moreHow Colleges and Universities Can Use Custom Stickers
Custom stickers have a wide range of uses because of their perceived value. People just love stickers, whether they display them on their personal belongings or collect them. In many ways, they allow us to let our inner kids out to play without seeming too childish to those around us. And that’s exactly why colleges and universities can use custom stickers to raise morale and encourage students to support their school, their athletic and sports teams, and much more. They also have a number of practical uses, which make them an even more effective tool for any school. Read on to discover a few ways in which your college or university can use custom stickers. Support the Team Custom stickers are a great way students can show their support for your school’s teams. Whether it’s the football team, the basketball team or the swim team, you can get some really nice stickers printed and hand them out to students so they can show their support. After all, every fan wants a way to show their love for their team, and stickers are a great way to do that. Anything from die-cut stickers to sticker sheets will work. In fact, you can do both. Get sticker sheets printed that feature all your sports teams and athletes for those students who want to support all their school’s athletes. Then print individual die-cut stickers for the same teams and athletes for those students who are more passionate about a particular sport. Regardless of your choice, custom stickers make a great option for you to engage students in your school’s sports and athletic events, while also enabling them to show their support. Parking Permits As we said, custom stickers also have practical uses, and one of those is for student and faculty parking permits. Loose permits can get lost and, with time, can fade. Especially if you get a lot sun in your area. Quality stickers, though, can be attached to windshields, which makes losing them a lot more difficult. In fact, it will take someone losing their car to lose their parking permit, and in that case, the permit really doesn’t matter all that much anymore. Plus, custom stickers are UV resistant, which means it will be a long, long time before they fade. In fact, your students will graduate long before that happens. Special Announcements Though our world is very digital and you likely send announcements out via email or your school’s intranet, you also probably put up printed announcements. After all, you have to make sure no one has an excuse to say they didn’t know, especially when it comes to events. Custom stickers are a great way to make these special announcements and promote any events. You can hand them out to the student body, or display them around the school. Support the School Custom stickers are also a great way to enable your students to show their support for their school. After all, everyone is proud of the institution they attend and they should be allowed to show it. And there’s no better way to do that than with some awesome stickers. Not only can they display them on their personal belongings, but they can also keep them as mementos. It’s a lot of fun looking back and remembering all the amazing moments you experienced in college and university. And stickers are a great keepsake to allow your students to do just that in the future, once they’ve graduated and are out in the real world. Inspire Your Students Stickers can also be great inspirational tools. Get a bunch printed with various inspirational messages, along with your school’s name and logo. You’ll inspire students, raise morale, and really show that you care about them, and will help you build a true community. Furthermore, stickers with inspirational messages also help to spark everything from creativity to critical thinking. So, if you really want to have some of the best students around, then make sure you take advantage of stickers with inspirational quotes on them. Promote the School A great way to promote your school and attract more students is by using custom stickers. Students often get stuck on a few ideas in regards to what they consider acceptable colleges, which can make it challenging to garner their interest if your institution is not on the “short list.” So, to get these students interested, you need to take a more creative approach than the usual posters and mugs. In fact, you have to get a bit more creative and stickers are the perfect way to do that. Instead of just printing stickers with your college’s name on them, add funny but inspirational quotes, for example. Others will be more likely to remember the name of your college if they loved the message on the sticker so much, they stuck it on their laptop. You can even print series of stickers and get kids interested by offering a prize to anyone who collects the whole set. It doesn’t have to be anything significant – it can even be another sticker, though it probably has to be a much more awesome sticker to make it worth it. The key is that by getting the kids involved and interacting with your institution’s brand, they are more likely to want to know more. Plus, taking this “fun” approach will make you more interesting to kids because it shows that your institution is creative and isn’t afraid of out-of-the-box thinking. Custom stickers have a wide range of applications. Whether you are looking to boost morale, inspire loyalty, or just give students a fun way to support their team and/or school, custom stickers are the way to go. Besides being cost-effective, they allow for a lot of creative freedom, which makes them even more valuable. After all, the sky really is the limit when it comes to how colleges and universities can use stickers for their students. All you have to do is think a little outside of the box for maximum impact.
Learn morePersonalize Your Easter Eggs Custom Stickers
Easter is just around the corner and we all know what that means: Easter egg decorating! Some of us love to get creative with our Easter eggs, but for some people it can be complicated, especially if you have kids. You have to come up with awesomely creative ideas while also letting your kids in on the action. If your kids are young, letting them near the dye might not be the wisest choice. But that doesn’t mean you can’t let them in on the action. Sticker sheets are an amazing solution because you can personalize your eggs while also allowing your kids to have fun without all the mess. Personalized Sticker Sheets for Awesome Easter Eggs Sticker sheets are… well, sheets of stickers. The really cool thing is that they are really affordable while allowing you to get really creative with the designs. And they don’t all have to be the same. In fact, each sticker can be different, allowing you to really go all out. Do your kids love the X-Men, or the Avengers, or some other cartoon or movie characters? Then get a bunch of stickers made with their favorites. In fact, why not let them choose which ones? Or instead of actual characters, you can go with their symbols, like Captain America’s shield or Batman’s bat signal. Maybe your kids aren’t into comics at all. Maybe they’re at that stage in life where dinosaurs fascinate them, or they just like lots of colors. Print dinosaur stickers, or even rainbow stickers, and let them apply to their heart’s content. Or maybe it’s not about your kids. Maybe you just want to have some fun and let your inner child out to play. You can be just as creative even if you’re only doing it for yourself. Love Pacific Rim? Print stickers with the Jaegers – or the kaiju if that’s your thing, though they are kind of unpleasant to look at. Adore anything to do with space? You can get custom stickers with planets printed, or supernovas or any other cool astronomical events. The sky really is the limit when it comes to printing sticker sheets to customize your egg decorating. Personally, we love Marvel so we’re going to have lots of Captain America, Winter Soldier, Thor, Iron Man, and Black Widow eggs. Custom Sticker Sheets for Clean Family Fun Holidays are all about family, and Easter gives us some great opportunities to get everyone in on the fun. However, dye and young kids are usually not a good mix. Somehow, the dye seems to end up everywhere other than where it’s supposed to go, namely on the eggs. One year, we spent more time washing the kids than actually celebrating Easter, because they thought the colors were awesome and wanted to show everyone in the neighborhood. It was funny seeing our kids looking like rainbows – until it was time to clean them up. Yeah, never again. And that’s when we turned to sticker sheets. You can come up with a gazillion creative designs and ideas, as we mentioned previously, and have fun decorating already-dyed eggs with the family. Note that we are placing heavy emphasis on the already dyed part. No need to get the heavy-duty detergent and bleach out, or the stainless steel scrubbers. No need to find creative ways to cover up those odd spots of color on the wall. No need to soak the kids for hours and then spend a few more hours online researching ways to get stubborn dye stains out of clothes without resorting to scissors or the garbage can. With sticker sheets, everyone can get in on the fun of decorating Easter eggs without the hassle of post-dye disaster clean up. Using Sticker Sheets to Make Easter Egg Hunts Even More Engaging Easter egg hunts aren’t just fun, they’re a great way to keep your kids engaged while the adults have a drink and a chat. But you can make the game even more fun for your kids, as well as educational. Instead of just going with fun pictures, you can get sticker sheets printed with the kids’ names, or with various words. Then the kids don’t just have to find the eggs, but they have to find the eggs with their names on them, or an egg with each word and the one who finds the complete set wins. Really, sticker sheets are a great way to liven up Easter for the kids even more. You can use them to devise all sorts of games, including Easter-egg decorating competitions and more. Just let your imagination fly and you’ll have a bunch of happy and busy kids, allowing the adults to enjoy the celebrations as much as the kids. Custom Sticker Sheets Make Amazing Gifts You might be scratching your head, wondering what gifts you can give friends and family this Easter without breaking the bank. Luckily, sticker sheets are a great solution because you can give the people you love an awesome gift that they will enjoy with their own loved ones without it costing you an arm and a leg. And the best part is that you do actually have to put a little thought into the designs, which will make the gift that much more special, even if you didn’t spend a fortune on it. So, take the time to consider what things your friends and family love, and get designs printed accordingly. Then, gift them with the sticker sheets that will allow them to personalize their own eggs and engage in clean fun with their whole family. You won’t be giving them just some stickers – you’ll be gifting them with an amazing experience they’ll never forget. Custom sticker sheets are a great way to personalize your Easter egg decorating efforts, but they also help create an amazing experience. After all, what could be more fun than decorating eggs with your kids, without having to worry about the ensuing disaster that will have you spending hours trying to clean it up?

Welcome to Stickerbeat. Over the past 30 years, we’ve printed a wide variety of stickers for individuals and small businesses. We've also made custom stickers for well-known companies like Nike, Home Depot, Walmart, Best Buy and many others. Heavy Duty Stickers Our stickers will hold up to the harshest weather conditions. We make them out of the same material that we use to wrap vehicles, like the one in you see in the featured image of this post. That means they’ll hold up to any use you’re likely to put them to. Our custom stickers are much more than just dishwasher safe – you’ve seen them rolling down the road on the sides of trucks and buses at highway speeds. They hold up despite heavy storms and hundreds of trips to the carwash. History of Modern Day Stickers Stickers have evolved to meet the changing times. The earliest stickers date back to ancient Egypt. Egyptians made glue by boiling a combination of animal hides, hooves and connective tissue and used it to plaster product and pricing stickers to the walls of ancient cities. Postage stamps are stickers too, and the first one was called the penny black. It went on sale May 1, 1840 in the UK. Stanton Avery is credited with developing the modern day sticker. He designed a machine that put self-adhesive labels onto a paper backing treated with silicone. This allowed the mass production of sticker sheets that could be peeled off and reapplied elsewhere. Bumper Stickers Czechoslovakian automaker N. Wagenbau-Fabriksgesellschaft was the first to put bumpers on cars in 1897. Unfortunately, the early bumpers were not designed well and they often fell off before they offered any protection to the vehicle’s owners. A few years later, British engineer Frederick Simms was granted a patent for his new impact-absorbing bumper. Credit for inventing the bumper sticker goes to Forest P. Gill. He attached advertisements to car bumpers with wire in the early 1930s and later used pressure-sensitive stock. By 1984, the Gill-line company had produced more than 1 billion bumper stickers when it celebrated its 50th anniversary. You can order bumper stickers here. Stickers Go Viral People have advertised with stickers for a long time, but their popularity really boomed in the early 1980’s when John Keaton invented a peel and stick product for rock band posters. He developed durable stickers to resist vandalism in tough neighborhoods. Mirrors, guitar cases and windows have never been the same since John’s invention. Custom Stickers That Rock Stickers have evolved significantly over the years and people are now using them for personal expression as well as for mass advertising. Whether you want stickers for your personal use or for your business, you deserve the best. Don’t take a chance with an inferior product - order stickers that rock from Stickerbeat.
