Market your business successfully using corporate gifts–pens, calendars, mugs, apparel, lighters , etc. imprinted with your company name and logo. At a price of $1-$3 a piece , promotional products may cost more than business cards and direct mail, but are remembered and kept by potential clients and people interested in ‚freebies‘, and can build your business and increase your sales. Here are some suggestions and tips for standout promotional giveaways that effectively build your brand:

1) The New My M&M’s- get the popular chocolate custom printed with your words, images, and colors and color blends that you won’t find on regular M&M’s. Imagine! M&M’s with a picture of mom and baby you for mother’s day.

2) Give gifts that show you really understand the needs of the receiver. For instance, China-Promo’s bookmark-magnifier ruler (yes, such a thing really exists) would be perfect to publicize an event for seniors because the gift caters to their weaker vision and preference for relatively more passive lifestyle pursuits such as reading.

3) Give free trial subscriptions. If your recipient likes games and you’re trying to launch a game site, give free game demos and trials to select groups. This not only lets you test the waters and get constuctive feedback , but also generates free advertising and buzz by testers.

4)Use promotional items that know one uses, such as the gold paperweight-magnifier carried by China Promo to create a win-win situation. The target markets get something interesting or useful with the company’s logo or motto, and the company or cause attracts a new customer. The best promotional items entice and attract consumers to the brand and help build recognition in the marketplace.

5)Give out useful, quality freebies that have broad market appeal and demand such as movie or game tickets packaged in your own logo stationary. Your recipient will frequently come back to you for these incentives and be exposed to what you have to offer.
