Ten Promotional Items You Probably Never Considered

One of the most commonly heard bits of advice about choosing promotional products is to be original.

The more unique the promotional items you choose are, they tell you, the more likely they are to be remembered. If you’re scratching your head trying to come up with some unique ideas for promotional items, we’ve got some answers for you. Here are ten promotional items you’ve probably never considered.

1. Mini optical computer mice

Appeal to the business executives and on the go college students with any one of several ranges of mini computer mice that are perfect to tuck into a laptop bag. Great giveaway or “for just £5 more” gift with a computer purchase.

1. A bottle of cabernet

Vintage wine with your own bespoke labels make great holiday gifts, and make quite an impression at conference dinners and events. If cabernet isn’t to your taste, there are many other varietals available. You can even mix and match for corporate events.

1. A refrigerator poetry kit

Magnetic word kits can be great fun – and you can order them with your own sets of words in three different sizes. A great way to introduce new products!

1. Mobile phone batteries

Want to be the company that comes to the rescue – for years on end? A portable, rechargeable and convertible mobile phone battery last for years – and has a huge print area to put your advertising message on. You can bet that these promotional items aren’t going to be handed out by every other company at the trade show.

1. Mobile phone chairs

Put your company’s name on the front of a mobile phone chair and you can be sure that it will sit on desktops for years to come. It’s a great alternative to searching for the phone.

1. Paper clips

How ubiquitous are these? You run into paper clips everywhere in the office. Why not use some of that space to promote your company or message? You can get boxes of  100 clips for as little as £.35.

1. Heat packs

Show your customers you care with a little warmth. Reusable heat pads are great promotional items for health and fitness concerns, or giveaways at clinics or events. They have lots of space for your name and will last for years and years.

1. Watches

Time pieces make great promotional items. Put your name across a clock face and you know that it will be seen dozens of times a day. Make it a fashionable watch, and your customers will wear them often – and see your name every time they check the time.

1. Golf balls

Be a hit with your executive clients or promote your club with printed golf balls that carry your logo alongside some of the best and most well-known brands in the business.

1. Shoe shine kits

Travel gifts are always popular, but shoe shine kits? Why not? Personal grooming gifts rate high on the list of most appreciated promotional items.
