While traditional advertising is a popular option, it can become an expensive one, specifically for small businesses. Alternatively, the use of promotional products can be a more memorable and inexpensive way to establish brand awareness, as well as recall and goodwill among your clients.
Promotional giveaways such as free bags, key chains, mouse pads, drink bottles, notebooks or mugs for existing customers, is an excellent way to retain them. Whereas conventional advertisements may not reach your target audience, your customers and may not be remembered, high quality or functional promotional items can be put to use for months and even years with your target audience.
Promotional gifts have room to imprint your slogan, logo, and contact information with facts on almost anything and everything. From USB drives to beach balls and earphones, to even smartphone add-ons, promotional products are pretty simple and inexpensive options.
High Utility Value
It is important that when you pick an item to give away to your customers, you identify a product that is beneficial, appropriate and that your client will use. A great way to find suitable promotional items is to look for things that are related to your business in some way. As an example, giving away USB drives to clients who use laptops, key chains to car buyers or owners, and backpacks to customers at sports activities, or a tote bag at a trade show.
Good Quality
Another consideration that is important is the quality of the product you give away. Whatever the item may be, a low quality product may have a direct impact on the brand perceptions your customers build for your business.
Economies of scale
Depending on your market, audience or event the type of promotional product that is suitable may vary. At an exclusive event a high priced or brand promotional gift may be the best promotional gift while for a large trade show with thousands and thousands of visitors a low price high volume product will be more suitable and effective.
