Cutting the "fat" shouldn't mean cutting out promotional advertising gifts!
Given the state of the economy, one of the best things you can do for your company is add in promotional advertising gifts. Many companies are working on finding ways to cut the "fat" from the budget. Before you cut the promotional products out of your bottom line, you may want to keep reading…
Custom printed promotional products are not only a great way to keep your company name in front of your customers, and to help them keep you in mind long after the meeting. They're also a welcome addition to any sales meeting or event.
"Survey Says…"
During a recent survey of 800 people, a staggering 69% said they would pick up a promotional item if they found it to be useful, while 23% said they would readily pick up a promotional product from a company, regardless of what it was. Further inquiries showed that out of the same people surveyed, 76% stated that they could remember the company brand from a promotional product over a magazine or news article and 60% said they would do business with the brand again in the future.
Given those percentages, you can't argue the fact that advertising with promotional products works!
Consider the sheer number of potential customers that attend an average trade show event. You can absolutely count on the fact that you WILL get people stopping by your booth. The more alluring your trade show display is, the more visitors you will get, so make sure to plan accordingly with the types of promotional products you want to have on hand. Magnets and pens are always an inexpensive promotional gift, and they definitely will be an item that folks will be happy to take away with them. But sometimes its a good idea to think outside the box with your promotional marketing products.
A Few Ideas for Being an Original Brand
Look for unique and useful promotional items. Perhaps something like a desktop cell phone stand or custom printed mouse pads. Maybe you want to give your guests something salty or sweet by which to remember you. Try handing out custom printed ceramic mugs with a mug stuffer full of chocolate covered almonds or deluxe mixed nuts. If you really like the idea of handing out pens, make sure its a pen that customers will reach for every time! Select flashlight pens or a tablet stylus pen.
I could easily ramble on for days about all the great promotional gift ideas that are available now. It's completely up to you and how you feel your customers will best remember your company and appreciate the most.
