Default What's a hot promotional product?

Hey foos - what cheesy item would you like to see inside your next order? Think pens, mouse pads, stickers, key chains, etc. What do you enjoy, and would actually use. Keep it simple - you know what I mean...

No, you're not getting 3 free shocks with the purchase of one

one of my clients is in the promotional item business.

the key is something people will see often. how bout a keychain with your logo on one side, and say "wheel lock" on the other side. this way it is always in the car, where the customer will always know where it is, and your number will be easy to find.

i wouldnt want an air freshner in my car, a pen out of ink is in the trash, and since p cars are so reliable the pen may disappear before the next order is needed.

something like leather treatment gets used up, etc.

have i gotten you thinking.

At work I had a bunch of large desk calculators printed up with the company name and phone numbers. They are like 6" by 4" and everyone loved them. I believe they were only about $4 printed and everything.

Combination spark plug gapper keychain.

Parragon/Porsche Key FOB


But I learned the best toss in the box giveaway from a sound equipment supplier.

Junk food. By a whole collection of candybars and bags of chips peanuts and the like. Toss them in the box.

Might work better for bigger companies where the order people like getting stuff when it comes with snack, so who do they order from?

Your problem is that we all order from you now anyways.

Although I hate carrying many key chains with my keys, I believe that a small key chain with your phone number will be the easiest way to advertise Paragon. Would it be possible for the customer to specify their product so that repeat customers don't get a drawer full of the same product?

I voted for other-I think a tee shirt on orders over $150 or so would be a good idea. Or, in my case order Big Reds for the front and get free cross drilled rotors for the back . . .

I have _asked_ for Zim's pens with my order. I had some from when I had my car serviced there... and I always liked them, they were reliable as well. I always used to keep them in my glovebox.

Mousepads, keychains, stickers all wind up in the drawer/garbage.

Maybe a notepad or sticky pad with company info. Also handy to keep in the car.

How about a refrigerator magnet?!?!
