Business gifts are one of the biggest
categories of promotional product sales. When a company gives away an
item with the intent of business their business or product, they’re
using business gifts to increase name recognition, promote a new
product or business or otherwise put their name out there to their
customers. While there are literally hundreds of different products
that are used as business gifts,
some are more popular than others. Just because they’re the most
popular, though, doesn’t mean they’ll be the best products to choose
for your business’ promotional campaign. Take a look at the Big Three
in business gifts and see how they’d work for your business.
Promotional Pens
Possibly the biggest business gifts of all time, promotional pens
are practically synonymous with the field. Everyone has at least one
pen printed with a company’s name or logo in their pen pot. They fit
every one of the rules set out for successful business gifts – they’re
portable, they’re useful, everyone uses them, and they get passed along
from hand to hand. On top of that, promotional pens can be among the
least expensive of all business gifts. Promotional pens are ideal for
handing out at trade shows and local events. It’s easy to keep a pen
pot full of printed pens at the till in your store or business and
encourage your customers to take one along with them.
On
the other hand, printed pens are so commonly used as business gifts
that they’ve lost their power to make an impression – unless you take
the time to choose a very distinctive style. If you’re choosing
business gifts for a trade show event, you can make a splash by
choosing excellent quality pens that are comfortable to use and
distinctive in appearance. If you offer pens that people love as
business gifts, they will keep your name in mind and close to hand.
Promotional Coffee Mugs
Coffee and travel mugs have rapidly become very big sellers in the
business gifts field. Like printed pens, they fit the requirements for
excellent business gifts. Coffee mugs and travel mugs are useful to
almost everyone. They have a large printable area for maximum impact of
your name or message. They’re small enough to be portable, and travel
mugs encourage portability. When they sit on a desk in an office,
they’re very visible, both to the recipients and to anyone who stops by
their desk. Since they are often used every day and sit on a desk all
day, promotional coffee mugs have a big name recognition factor.
Also like printed pens, printed mugs
are such popular choices for business gifts that you have to choose
distinctive and memorable mugs to carry your message. Luckily, there
are so many styles and varieties of coffee mugs that it’s not difficult
to find coffee mugs that are unique to your business.
Promotional Key Rings
The third member of the “Big Three” promotional products, key rings are
popular for all the same reasons that coffee mugs and pens make the
list. They’re small, everyone can use a key ring and they come in many
different styles and materials. Most people would prefer not to spend
money on a keyring, and will be quite happy to use printed keyrings
given as business gifts. When they choose to use your printed keyring
to carry their keys, they’ve chosen to carry your name along with them
wherever they go. They’ll see your name every time they use their keys
– usually several times a day. And of course, key rings are a very
inexpensive choice for business gifts.
