3 of the Best Promotional Giveaways

The jury is in and the verdict states that people do indeed love receiving free stuff. This is why companies benefit from adding promotional giveaways to their marketing strategy. The best promotional giveaways are the ones that you can easily get into the hands of your clients, target audience and possible future customers. Best of all, competition within the giveaway manufacturing sector is stiff, so these items tend to be reasonably priced and if you order in bulk, additional discounts may be added.

Here are three of the best promotional giveaways a company can add to their marketing strategy.

Stickers

Stickers are available in an array of sizes and cuts. From small stickers to decal stickers, set up is as easy as uploading a logo, selecting the sticker size and picking an order amount. Recipients of these stickers are often creative with the way they display them. Some like to stick them on their electronic devices, book bags or car windshields and when they receive custom bumper stickers, many will proudly display them on their car's bumper. This is especially true during election season when constituents want to share with anyone who will catch a glimpse of their car the candidate(s) they support. For a company, this is ideal exposure because the promotional sticker is seen in traffic, parking lots and on the street.

Pens

Pens may be the most practical promotional item a company can giveaway. We may be living in an electronic world, but the sudden need to have a pen handy still has not disappeared. When these pens are utilized, customers are reminded that your company exists because they see your logo. The more often they see that logo, the more likely they will be tempted to head to your location and purchase a product or sign up for a service.

Key Chains

Promotional key chains are another great giveaway. Most people will access their keys at least once a day so they will see your logo at least that one time a day. Additionally, there are enough promo key chain variations that your target audience can enjoy. For example, aluminum bottle/can opener key chains are widely popular and practical as well as the carabiner key tag model.

Promotional giveaways are a worthwhile marketing investment companies make, and three of the best giveaways are stickers, pens and key chains.

More Product Reviews To Come

The assignments are trickling but I have plenty of products to review and post in the coming days. I have mini-giveaways to host as well so watch out for them!

I am glad that even if I don't get much tasks, I still get a lot of products to try and test and keep as well. I consider this a good blogging perk because some of these items are really not mass produced and can only be bought in limited quantities. Aside from that, they are high-quality products produced by emerging companies in their respective industries.

So, more reviews to come and hopefully, the other tasks will start picking up soon. It's already almost 3rd week of the month.

Baby Boomers!

2009 is the year where almost every female relative or friend I know is pregnant. Okay, I am exaggerating there. The truth is I have several friends and a relative who are all above 40 and have been trying to conceive for sometime and guess what? I think Lady Luck has been working hard lately because all of them just announced they are pregnant! Talk about baby boomers.

First, my sister-in-law is pregnant, then 2 of my friends in Canada are "infanticipating" and 2 of my gal pals here in Dubai are also heating some nice, cute "buns" in their ovens. What is so funny about this whole thing is that, they announced their pregnancies one after the other and I could not help but laugh about the joke. Well, I thought it was until they all confirmed their pregnancy.

So I am in a predicament as to what to give all these mommies-to-be for their babies and themselves. I am sure I will get baby-shower invitations left and right.

I hastily checked the site for nice baby and mommy-to-be products I can give which are really unique, chic and sassy. Petunia Pickle Bottom will be the answer to my gift-giving woes. I checked the variety of elegant, classy, very pretty products they carry. I think the mommies-to-be will not be disappointed to see what's in their gift boxes.

I am eyeing the Petunia Pickle Bottom diaper bags for half of my pregnant friends. I like the various designs that I can choose from. They all look so chic without giving away their real purpose. You won't be able to make out they are diaper bags because of the look. Some even look like hobo bags. How come these bags didn't show up in the market when I was pregnant?

Of course I won't let all my pregnant mommy friends to have the same baby-shower gifts, right? I am keen on the Petunia Pickle Bottom baby slings as well as an option to give for the other half. I prefer this from the conventional baby carrier I used for my daughter 11 years ago. This baby sling follows the natural contour of the baby's back and that makes it all natural. The baby is like being cradled by the mommy's arms. It makes bonding stronger.

Apart from the above items, the Layla Grayce-Petunia Pickle Bottom site also carries receiving blankets, organic blankets, baby one-piece clothes, crib bedding brocade and linens.
