This promotional product might be small but the impact is huge. You’ll find it perfect for new product rollouts, new website launches, anything that you might help in directing buyers to to your website. One of the great ways to distribute these samll promo items is to give them away at a tradeshow, mail them or toss them out at a festival. The price is low  and you should be able to impress your potential client and excite them with additional marketing material about what they might find when they plug it in.

You can program the website launcher with a url that could change content throughout the year.  You could offer quarterly coupons or incentives and encourage the recipient, through e-mail reminders, to plug their launcher in to see what’s new. Consider changing featured products or announce a new artist with visuals and music, this is one exciting promotional web launcher !

 

The product is small and you just have to start the creative process rolling to figure out how your product, service or company can use this launcher to dazzle and impress at a very affordable price.

I found this product at our big industry show and was wowed by it’s possibilities. 

It is a foil lined pouch for putting out cigarette butts, in other words a pocket ashtray. It can also be used for small trash, gum, candy wrappers etc. Why the wow factor? There are many companies that want to promote a clean environment. For the employees that take a break outside, whether smoking or not, it is usually an eyesore when it comes to the trash that can accumulate. A product like this custom imprinted pocket ashtray encourages individual accountability. I like the message it sends when a company hands out something like this to it’s employees. This item is small and easy to distribute during a community fair or a local parade. Send the message “Let’s clean up!” and recieve branding love from all the recipients.

                                                      

Or, try one of the messages below. I love this new product. Kudos to the inventor!

Ideas:

National Parks " Prevent Forest Fires"

Environmentalists " Please don't litter" excellent for a client wanting to show their awareness level

States with Smoking Bans

Municipalities  "Stick it here"

 

The other great thing is it allows for great visuals as you can print all over the little pouch for low cost and high impact. The only thing limiting you here is your creative imagination.

For those of you looking for a new golf product for sponsors and tournaments we have an outstanding new promotional product. You may find the golf ballmania lip balm at your local golf course sold as a novelty but this promotional lip balm is good stuff.

                                       Image

I used it on my last golf outing to Bandon Dunes and it kept my lips soft with no affects from the 25 mph gusts I experienced while moving the real ball down the fairways. The container looks and feels like the real thing. Any golf club, resort or company associated with golf could use this as a fun promotional giveaway.

 

And, if you are not into golf, consider the other shapes and colors it comes in to tie in with soccer camps, tennis etc. It comes with a keychain option and turn time is usually two weeks. Mention this blog and we’ll give you special better then shown pricing on the golf lip balm!

Promotional Products Save The Travel Day

 

The three S’s are soap, shaving cream and shampoo. With this special travel kit you can carry it on the plane and never be stopped for inspection! The custom imprinted aero-fresh travel kits feature little paks that foam when you apply water and can be used for one of three activities. It also comes with an empty spray bottle and a regular screw off top to place whatever else you need in emergency situations. I think conditioner and mouthwash would be at the top of my list.

                                                                                                                         Image

This is a really well made plastic bag and your employees, clients or prospective clients will love the usefulness of this new product. Plus, your marketing budget will love it because we have this promotional item on a very big sale just to make you very happy with our latest great pick of the month! How does $4.99 sound? Now that’s savings.

Every year we receive the results of an industry wide survey. I thought it might be interesting for you to know some facts and figures when you are stating your case for your next promotion.

What buyers want? Among respondents whose companies used promotional products as business gifts, 44% reported quality was the most important feature they seek.

Respondents whose companies engaged in trade shows, over half, 57% reported that price was the most important consideration when selecting promotional items.

The companies who used promotional products for customer acquisitions, 40% selected creativity as most important. No big surprises there except in customer acquisition.

Have you ever heard of CPI? In advertising lingo it is very important. It means cost per impression. A promotional mug that lasts one to two years with three to five people viewing it each day can yield as many as 15 to 50 impressions per five day work week. A 50 sheet notepad has a minimum of 50 exposures and then if the note is passed along the number doubles. The CPI for a $1.00 custom imprinted notepad becomes 2 cents or even 1 cent, per impression depending on whether the note is shared. Now that’s something to talk about!
