Corporate Giveaways & Promotional Products in Tempe, AZ

Promotional Product Strategies

Here are a few ideas:

• Reward and motivate your employees with branded incentives.
• Give away relevant branded items for safety and education programs.
• Set up a corporate booth at trade shows, conferences, and expos.
• Launch a brand awareness campaign with giveaways.
• Engage followers on social media by hosting a contest with high-end branded prizes.
• Partner with companies or sponsor events that have a similar target audience; include items in their lobbies or gift bags.

Getting Your Promotions Started

• Bring your logo or digital file and work with our team to select the perfect promo items for your business, organization, or cause. The more information you can provide us about your needs, target audience, and budget, the better we can strategize and choose products that work best in design and functionality.
• Personalize items with your company's name, logo, or message. There are many options like embroidery, silk screening, and embossing. Keep your brand and audience in mind every step of the way, down to the material you choose.
• Take advantage of proofs to be sure you've created items that reflect your vision. Carefully examine the products, and customize until it's something you're proud of. Ask yourself, "Is this a product I'd really use and appreciate?"

Make The Most of Your Investment

• Pick items that can be reused or regifted.
• Outfit your employees in branded clothing.
• Consider giving out two of each promotional item and encourage your customers to share the love.
• Make relevant, useful gifts that decision-makers might use when deciding who to buy from, like mouse pads or flash drives.
• Create promotional products with the recipient in mind: discreet logos are much more likely to be worn; catchy taglines are fun to wear.

Tips for Increasing Traffic with Promotional Products

Make the customer feel special.
While promo items with logos are often helpful, sometimes the best way to promote your business is by printing your customer's name on a nice pen or reusable shopping bag. Then, let them tell their friends where they got it!

Reward referrals.
Encourage customers to refer business to your company, and thank them with branded rewards like t-shirts, hats, and water bottles.

Free stuff over here!
Let's face it: people love free stuff. Make sure that your next trade show booth, sales call, or new product launch includes promotional items. Then, prospective customers can bring a little bit of your brand home or to the office with them.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are corporate giveaways and why do businesses use them?

Corporate giveaways are branded items a company hands out to customers, employees, prospects, or event attendees. Businesses use them because people keep a useful item long after they'd forget an ad, and some corporate giveaways even become collectibles. Tempe companies most often order them for trade shows, client thank-yous, employee recognition, and grand openings.

How do I choose the right promotional products for my business?

Choosing the right promotional products starts with the audience and the goal rather than the catalog. An item a decision-maker keeps on a desk works differently than something handed out by the hundred at an expo, so pick the item to match the purpose. Our team helps you weigh usefulness, perceived value, and quantity, then narrows 700,000 options down to a manageable shortlist. Promotional product ideas work best when the item is something the recipient would use on their own.
