Here is my list for the top three promotional products.
#1 PENS!
Yes a simple and very cost effective way to get your name in someone hands. Studies show that pens are used an average of 18 times per month! Be very picky when shopping for pens. The LAST thing you want is to save money and buy a cheap pen that does not last. How many times have you picked up a pen to write down something very important and it did not work.
We only sell the best American made pens. They have a shelf life of THREE years ans are guaranteed to write for a mile and a half. We have dealers call us to order just so they can get some pens.
HATS:
Did you know the average hat is kept an worn for at least six months! WOW.
TOTE BAGS:
These are the simple and economical canvas tote bags that ladies and men carry things to the beach or shopping or just about anywhere. This product gets the most impressions, meaning people see your name. How about 18,000 views. Not bad for a product that costs less than $2.00 a piece.
Dealers spend thousand and thousands of dollars on TV, Radio and print advertising but very little on inexpensive give-aways. Why not give that customer that is leaving a pen or a tote bag ( remember the majority of buying decisions involve a woman ). What a great way to thank them and for them to feel good. How many dealers do you know that do that, probably none. They sprinkle be-back powder on them and pray that they will come back.
Stand out from the rest and you will be the best!
