Promotional products help get the job done. After all, the number one goal for a promotional product is to get recipients to remember your organization. And they work! According to PPAI®, nearly 90 percent of consumers remember the branding on a promotional product they received (PDF). Four out of five can recall the messaging on the product.
That’s what makes picking memorable giveaways so critical! Selecting the right items can turn a promotional product into the perfect tool to keep your brand top-of-mind.

Highlight your brand
The right kind of swag can help enforce your branding. Look for giveaways that complement what your organization does. For example, if your shop sells vintage or upcycled items, the Denim Pencil is a great option. This pencil is made of 30 percent recycled denim. If you want to let people know about your doctor’s office or healthcare clinic, the Plush Round Hot/Cold Pack can help you soothe your customer’s pain points with either cold or hot therapy. Hotels and airlines may enjoy the Aero-Snooze Travel Kit, complete with nylon eye mask and foam earplugs. And if you sell cold beverages, the Confetti Mood Stadium Cup brings the fun. Just pour a cold drink and watch the confetti appear. How cool is that?
