Buy promotional items for the year



I have previously said that there are certain products that are great for a particular time of the year. There are also gifts available that are fantastic for all year round. These are the best kind of products to go for since you can order them once a year to last you for all your events for that year. Such items are pens, mugs and a very popular one is umbrellas.

Promotional umbrellas are recently becoming well used in the UK whatever the weather. There are many that now use umbrellas to shade from the sun and you know they are always used during the winter. Printed umbrellas will, without a doubt, give you great value for money since you know they will always be used by many and thus the exposure of your logo or message will be great.

So your next move is to get organised, choose a time of the year when you feel you could buy your promotional gifts for that year, keep this date in your diary. You can even set up repeat orders with your promotional gifts company so you don't have to go through the whole process again every year. Perfect! A promotional gift that you know will be used no matter what time of year it is and with no hassle. Isn't that what every company looks for?

Button Badge Crazy!



Don't know whether you have noticed but there's button badge madness on the streets today. Kids, teenagers, adults, parents have all gone bonkers over button badges. You see them on kids and teenagers backpacks and rucksacks, you see them on adults and parents jackets, jeans and t-shirts; they all want to get the newest most creative text on a badge.

This is a fantastic opportunity to get yourself out there. It's the new craze and you should be involved but it's all in the text, this is where design doesn't matter. To have your badge be the coolest of badges you need to have thought of the best and most differentiating slogan yet; so get thinking!

If you achieve this simple task then your slogan/badge will be all over the place, and you will definitely see the difference in your business. Badges at the moment are one of the most favourite promotional items around, so make sure you don't miss out on this great opportunity to promote your business all over the streets.

Recycled products are on the up



Today, world leaders at the G8 summit have all agreed to strive to cut carbon emissions in an attempt to reduce global warming. More and more we are seeing efforts being made around the world to help with the global warming crisis. Companies have increased the number of recycled/organic or environment friendly products and consumers are increasingly buying these products in hope that it will make a difference.

As a result of this we have seen an increase in sales for recycled/organic products. The importance of the possible result of going organic has been proven by this. The best thing is, going organic does not mean that you cannot get the item that you want. All the most popular items are available as recycled gifts such as pens, mouse mats, mugs, rulers, bags, sticky notes, memo holders and more.

It makes perfect sense, you have a budget for promotional gifts why not spend it on a product that its better for the environment.

Too early for Christmas!?


It's never too early to start thinking about Christmas when it comes to promotional items. Being organised is the best way to get the most out of your gifts so why wait until the last minute?

Christmas is the busiest time for business gifts, it seems every company wants to gift their loyal clients or employees with the latest trend or a quality item. Our advise to you is to start thinking from now, the benefits of this kind of organisation is immense. Not only do you guarantee that the exact item you want is available however you also ensure that you have the right design, the best printing or engraving and that everything is delivered in plenty of time for Christmas.

Intense research has been done into the delivery of promotional items at Christmas and it has been proven that a gift given at Christmas is more likely to hang around than gifts given at other times of the year. Giving mugs will mostly likely ensure that yours will stay on your employees or clients desk for much longer also proving that they are more likely to think of your service first.

Take the following example: you have been given a mug at Christmas advertising an electricians, you have kept this item for your office mug, a few months down the line you require the services of an electrician, the first company you think of is the company on your mug. You have seen this name and number every morning, afternoon and evening for the past few months. You don't have to search for their number or go out of your way to research on the net for electricians. This is what every company aims to achieve with gifting business gifts.

So start thinking now!
