Tips In Making Unique Promotional Gifts

By Brian Phillips


Promotional gifts are used by companies in promoting themselves and the products or services they have. These will help in communicating what your brand stands for and makes it more memorable for them. These are usually given during events, trade shows or even at sidewalks to market it to the people.

Common items given for those purposes are tote bags, pens and mugs with your brand name written on them. But there are those that are giving unique promotional gifts which stands out from others and impress them longer. Here are some guides in creating one for the company you have which you can hand out next time.

Craft something that would not fit inside envelopes but is much at home inside packages and boxes. This could build anticipation in opening them for these people and they will be excited and want to open it as soon as possible. There will be a surprising element for the opening process because they have no idea what they will receive.

Give them things to do when the item is received making it stick better to their memory. An example that has been done by a famous toothpaste company is when they hand out ice creams with the sticks shaped similar to a toothbrush which reminds them in brushing their teeth after they eat. These things inclining the receiver to do something is better.

Make the items relevant to the services and products which helps in connecting it to your business. These things might tell a meaningful story of the company related to the business and your visions. This also shows the benefits of patronizing your business that they can get.

Avoid making it look cheap or generic even though you have to make sure that the gifts are not expensive to produce. Be creative in making them look classy to have a good impression on them. And there are those that are not allowed to accept expensive gifts because of the nature of their work so there is that as well.

Never forget in including your company brand logo in your gifts so they will have a reminder on where they have received it. This shall be placed in a visible area that could easily be seen although make sure the aesthetics of the present is not destroyed. Do not make your logo as large as the item though.

Choose an item that will last unlike food and flowers that needs to be eaten immediately or will just wither away. This would help remind them of you even after years of the time you have given it to them. It also great if you can make one that they can proudly display at their house or be able to use it once in a while.

And lastly, make sure that the effort you put in making them will be felt by the people who are going to receive it. Having a concept that was not done before by others or only a very few companies that would have a great impact with your customers. This would be a fun activity for your team as well in allowing their creativity to be exercised.
