Using promotional gifts like pens, mugs and umbrellas is a great way to increase your brand awareness. Not only must you choose something that will get used but it must get seen as well. A practical gift like a pen or mug that gets used on a regular basis will constantly remind your client of your brand. The recipient of the gift should be proud to use the gift and be happy to show it to others to give the best results.
Here’s a small selection of the most popular items used as promotional giveaways.
Promotional conference folders make useful gifts as the right recipients will find it will help them keep organised in their business life. You must unsure that your gift will get used so choosing the correct gift for each person is essential.

Promotional coffee mugs are a relatively cheap item if bought in bulk and will get used a few times every day. You logo on a mug could site on someone’s desk most of the day and be a constant reminder of your brand. A coffee mug is a good size to print your logo, telephone number and web address so make use of this premium space.
Promotional pens are handy gifts that will get used on a daily basis and be a constant reminder displaying your corporate image to the best advantage. The quality of these promotional items is important as a cheap item may not get used and therefore be not as visible, whereas a more expensive item will get shown off but may cost you more than it is worth. Cheap plastic pens may just get thrown away or lost but a nice metallic type of pen which looks expensive will be more looked after.
