Think back to a time when you stood in a semicircle with your classmates, waiting to see if you would get picked to be “it” and charged with the responsibility of leading your team to victory. 

That’s sort of how it is with promotional products. One of countless products can be chosen for a promotion, event, fundraiser, reward or thank you gift (among other occasions). But as the promotional leader of your organization, you’ve got a lot more at stake than bragging rights at the dinner table: You’ve got a team of people who expect you to win the game on their behalf, regardless of the equipment you use.

We mean it when we say that just about any product can be used effectively for just about any promotional occasion. Want proof? Then by all means, put us on your roster and give us a chance to help you score some points…

Call us or send us an e-mail when you’re ready to talk about your next promotional opportunity. We're sitting here in our team uniform, ready to help!

  17 Reasons to Use Promotional Products
by Connie O’Kane
 
     
 

Do you really believe in promotional products? Sure, you use them to promote your company, but would you really like to be somewhere else in marketing? Do you dream of 60-second spots during the Super Bowl as you sign off on a promotional products order?

Shame on you. Promotional products are the most cost-effective – make that most effective, period – ad vehicle around. If you’ve been ignoring your counselor’s advice to harness their power even further, here are 17 reasons why you should wake up and smell the coffee (in a logoed mug, of course).

  Promotions With Short- and Long-Term Appeal  
     
 

Last month Printable Promotions helped the Chicago Public Schools’ Office of Extended Learning Opportunities promote A.I.M. HIGH, a program offering 80 hours of free tutoring in reading and math for students in 1st-12th grade.

To get the word out, we produced 10,000 hand fans that were passed out at neighborhood street festivals. The features of the program were highlighted on one side in English and on the other side in Spanish.

For a longer-lasting reminder of the program, we produced 15,000 lanyards for the student participants, so they could easily carry their house keys with them and, ultimately, increase awareness of A.I.M. HIGH.
