Ideas for Promotional Christmas Gifts – There’s Still Time!

Wednesday, November 17th, 2010

If you’re anything like me, you’ll still be finding it hard to get your ‘Christmas head’ on and realise that it’s actually not too far away now. In business terms, it’s imminent, and will soon be too late to order the promotional Christmas gifts that you really would like. As time goes by, the choice gets smaller both because others have got there before you and stocks are dwindling, or just plain insufficient lead-time.

Your method of distribution for your promotional Christmas gifts will also determine the absolute deadline for receiving your Christmas merchandise. If you intend to mail them out you probably have a little more time, but obviously need to be aware of longer mail delivery times during December. However, if you intend to be a little more ‘hands on’ and make personal presentations of your Christmas gifts, you probably need to have them ready sooner so that you have time to visit all your valued customers and colleagues before time runs out. The last thing you need is to have valuable promotional Christmas merchandise remaining after the festive season. That just represents wasted capital.

Many promotional products are available on a two to three week turn-round as long as the items are on the shelf, so this is still ok at the moment. Promotional 2011 diaries and calendars are still available, though there may be limited choice at this point. Pens and pen sets, mugs, umbrellas and mousemats are popular promotional products all year round, and can be also great as Christmas gifts. Other good ideas are promotional leather goods, such as folders, portfolios, travel wallets and card holders, while imprinted bags and clothing, particularly hats and scarves sets, are also good ideas.

If you do find yourself running short of time, there are often express delivery options on many of our promotional products. Particular highlights here are pens, mousemats, flash derives, paper products and personalised wines, spirits andwine related gifts – great for getting everyone in the festive mood!

Don’t waste any time mulling it over. If you’re not sure, just get in touch straight away with one of our Christmas Elves (aka our sales team) who have served their time with Santa. They will do their best to create some magic for you and have your personalised Christmas gifts winging their merry way to you as fast as Rudolf and his mates can fly!

Am I the first to wish you a ‘Very Merry Christmas and a Prosperous New Year’?

Here’s to a great 2011 for your business…

Promotional Gifts are an Important Marketing Medium

Tuesday, December 8th, 2009

It is important to recognise the potential of promotional products as part of a whole marketing and branding strategy. Promotional items, if well chosen and properly employed, can be a very efficient and cost effective advertising tool for any company. This is why even large well established companies continue to distribute small imprinted promotional gifts such as mugs, pens, key rings and umbrellas to their customers. It is also the reason why when major companies hold conferences and meetings, the delegates are equipped with conference folders and conference bags to take away from the event. Discussions are easily forgotten afterwards, printed handouts, information and fliers may only be considered useful at the time but quickly consigned to the bin; only your promotional merchandise may survive to act as a reminder of the associated event. These useful items, printed with advertisements, can be used every day over a period of time, ensuring plenty of exposure for the marketing messages they display.

When considering products to include in a marketing campaign, many make the mistake of underestimating the lead-time necessary to procure the required promotional merchandise and have it printed and delivered. The task may be considered as trivial or secondary, or perhaps the inclusion of promotional products as part of the marketing plan is only considered if there is some budget left after everything else is taken care of. The truth is, however, that promotional gifts are possibly one of the most important things given out during an event because they may be the only items taken away as a reminder.

Promotional items are an important element in any marketing campaign and should be properly accounted for in the initial budget. Well considered and carefully chosen promotional gifts can have enormous marketing and advertising impact. If utilized properly the potential return on investment can be huge.

Promotional Folders – Part of your Promotional Conference Package

Friday, November 27th, 2009

At this time of year many companies are beginning to plan towards their conferences for the early part of next year. Big or small, all conference organisers need to consider putting together a package of useful and relevant promotional items to both promote their company and provide a service to conference delegates. Well chosen conference gifts perform several roles both for the hosting company and the attendees. For the delegate, the quality, thoughtfulness and relevance of the package reflects the aspirations and standards of the conference organisers. If their conference package enhances their experience of the occasion, they will take away many positive messages and continue to use the promotional products that were given to them. These will serve as an on-going reminder of their experience and consolidate links with the company.

For many conferences promotional folders will be a central item. There are so many styles and sizes to choose from that there will be the perfect option whatever your needs, whether you are looking for traditional style of something more contemporary. You may then want to add a range of complimentary promotional gifts including pens, pads, pencils, highlighter pens and perhaps a printed bag to keep everything together. PG Branding offer a huge range of promotional conference gifts suitable for every occasion; well worth a visit to our innovative website to see what will work for you.
