Research shows that promotional products are very powerful marketing tools that can help a brand be remembered and encourage people to do business with a company.
But it’s important to not just pick any promotional product. Taking the time to develop a good promotional product strategy will really pay off!
Here are some things to consider:
- How do you want recipients to use the promotional product? If you want them to use it just once or for a limited time or pass it along, items like temporary tattoos, coasters and pens are a cost-effective choice. If you want people to display the brand in public, tote bags or wearable items like hats and t-shirts work well. If you want them to think of the brand before making a purchase decision in the office, use products like desk items, coffee mugs or magnets.
- Will the recipients find the promotional product useful? Will they appreciate it? The best promotional products are ones that recipients will value and use. If the target audience isn’t tech-savvy, for example, they won’t appreciate a USB drive.
- Does the item fit the brand and marketing goals? Likewise, any promotional products you select should be a good fit for the brand and overall marketing goals. If the company has a strong eco-friendly focus, for example, you should select a green promotional item. If the focus is on health, choose a health-related item like first aid kits, hand sanitizer or water bottles.
- Does the item have a high perceived value? You want the brand to be associated with quality, so avoid cheap items that could break or wear out easily. Investing in a product that looks high-quality will create a more positive impression. It will also give you an item that people will hold on to longer, extending the impact and increasing the return on investment.
- Does it get your point across quickly? Choose an item that has enough room for the logo or marketing message to be displayed clearly and read easily.
