Hello, I have the ability to make branded face coverings.

However, with Google and Facebook stopping people advertising such products it is proving tricky, does anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks.

Moderator edit: less of the advertising promotion please.

Post is probably slightly close to advertising for the mods.

As for your question, you could get in touch with some big names who may want their staff to be 'branded up', although you might have some ballache around copyright of their images etc - but you can work through that with them.

I am not advertising but get your point, genuinely asking for advice as you would think something so useful at the moment would be easy to sell!

Yes, that's a good idea but finding the decision-makers is difficult.

I am happy to send out free samples (individually branded) to those who might have a use for them?

Why are they stopping you advertising these?

I was told by my marketing guy, I think during the start of the crisis a lot of dodgy stuff was being passed off as medical-grade ppe, or people being conned into buying items that didn't exist, not sure how things are being dealt with now?

Facebook lifted their ban more than 2 weeks ago, maybe you need a new marketing guy?

Possibly Use a micro influencer strategy, basically giving them to lots of active social media people to post for you.
Pay someone to find them for you.

Sounds like a good suggestion, however, I have no clue where I would start. I am just good at the design and manufacturing part.

Could you PM me, your profile doesn't allow emails? Thanks.

Bump, just throwing this out there for comment.

From the feedback received, people are telling us these are some of the best masks they have ever seen or used for the cost.

However, selling online has proved almost impossible, we must be doing something very wrong!

We have a top-quality product that is simply not selling, any marketing experts out there that would like a chat or get involved with us?

We got some made by the company that do our work wear.

They were rubbish. I can't get my nose and mouth in it at the same time.
Might be better to deal with companies that do work wear and white label it for them?

I should have added, we have the kit to make these by the thousands, per day.

It's not my mum on her sewing machine at home.. smile
