Marketing Ideas

PulsePoint Coffee Sleeves
  • Leverage your community’s coffee habit! Branded coffee sleeves that could be distributed to area coffee shops. Include PulsePoint download information, local CPR training opportunities, or encourage the registration of AEDs.
  • Do you have a community channel or other local broadcast opportunities? Use one of our "in the can" PSA's!
  • Use our ready-to-go postcards or business cards to include in a utility bill, tax bill or agency notice. Include them as part of a normal mailing. Email shannon@pulsepoint.org for a link to your custom marketing materials.
  • Engage your local service or community groups (parent groups, Boy/Girl Scouts, veterans, hospital volunteers, etc.) to take CPR classes, register AED's and download PulsePoint.
  • Is your community hockey or basketball-crazy? Many professional, minor league, college, and even high school teams have community marketing opportunities during games; leverage public service nights or other theme events to partner with them to increase awareness.
  • Utilize our CPR/PulsePoint Infographic to hand out at events, provide to CPR instructors, or anywhere you want to market CPR and PulsePoint.

  • See if your local recreation guides, community bulletins, civic newsletters, or email distributions can include a Heart Month advertisement or editorial "blurb" on CPR, AED, and PulsePoint awareness. These publications have an incredible shelf life and are a great way to get into every home in your jurisdiction.
  • Check with your local billboard companies (Adams Outdoor, Fairway, Lamar, etc.) to see if they would be willing to donate screen time on their digital billboards. We have dynamic templates with live data connections to your latest stats, ready to go.
PulsePoint Billboard Examples
  • Add a custom header or footer to all staff emails this February to raise awareness.
