TOP 10 PROMOTIONAL PRODUCTS

Resource Center » Top 10 Promotional Products

There are many options to choose from in picking the best promotional products for your line of business.

Promotional products are important advertising tools for many companies. Consumers are frequently made aware of a company’s logo when it is used on promotional items that they will notice every day. When the time comes for customers to consider making a purchase, that logo will be fresh in their minds and could possibly cause them to choose your company over a competitor. Here are the top ten promotional products that you can use to promote your business:

Pens and Pencils
Writing instruments are constantly used by employees as well as by clients of almost every business. It is smart to provide low-cost (but high-quality) logo pens and pencils to local businesses; employees will use the pens daily and they may end up leaving them with clients, which could extend your advertising even further. Spend a little bit more money and present more expensive pens to valuable clients for their own personal use. It's important to remember that the longer the pen lasts, the better it is for your business.

Calendars
Desk and wall calendars are also useful items that are used daily. Attractive calendars with full-color pictures are more likely to be displayed in public view, but small magnetic calendars are other low-cost options.

Personal Planners
Similar to calendars, small personal planners are commonly used on a daily basis. They sometimes feature a 12- or 24-month calendar, an address book, maps with time zones, frequently misspelled words, and other useful bits of information. While they are less likely to be seen by the general public, a pocket planner literally keeps your business logo and information in your potential client’s pocket.

Key Chains
Small key chains are other items that will keep your name and telephone number close to your buyers. Consider the type of business you have and the type of clients you wish to attract when having your key chains designed.

Water Bottles
People are becoming more environmentally aware, and many are looking for alternatives to disposable water bottles. A heavy-duty personalized water bottle may be the answer they require, and it will help promote your business in the process.

Mouse Pads
Custom mouse pads are necessities for most businesses. Provide your local businesses with more than one mouse pad so they will have an extra when the first one wears thin.

Magnets
An unobtrusive refrigerator magnet is easy and inexpensive to mail, and it serves the purpose of having your business information handy. For potential clients, consider an off-beat or a unique custom magnet to catch their eyes and attention.

Apparel
Baseball caps are excellent promotional products, and your recipients become walking advertisements as a result of them. Attractive t-shirts or sweatshirts are other options for advertising in a casual setting.

Stress Balls, Paper Clip Holders, and Other Desk Items
Anything small that can easily fit on a desk will keep your information handy and it can give visual appeal to an otherwise boring work setting. Stress balls are great examples of this! Keep in mind what you are selling and also what types of businesses you are targeting, otherwise your item may end up hidden in a drawer instead of sitting front and center on a desk.

Tote Bags
Many consumers are bringing cloth tote bags to stores to avoid having to use throwaway plastic or paper bags. Providing good quality tote bags can advertise your business to other shoppers as well as tell people that your company is concerned about the environment.

With all of the promotional products available, you should have no trouble choosing something appropriate and affordable for your current and potential clients.
