    How to choose the right promotional product?

    Where to Start?

    Picking the right promotional product can be a headache. There is so much choice from pens, travel mugs, bags, USB's, coasters and more, so where do you start? Our merchandise experts will help you to choose the right product to suit your brand and specific campaign. We start with considering the following your brand, lead time, print, budget and the campaign. We can then help you narrow down the options resulting in the best solution.

    Brand

    It is important that your promotional merchandise fits your brand for example drawstring bags are suitable for a college but not so suitable for a solicitors. Pick a product that suits your target audience and make sure it is sending the right brand message.

    Colour

    Colour is very important when picking the right promotional product. If the product can be supplied in your corporate colour then this can save you costs on print. The product is automatically linked to your brand before it is even printed. There are a huge range of promotional products that can be pantone matched. This can be a great starting point to narrow down the range of products that are available.

     

    Lead Time

    All products have different lead times. Depending on when your products are required will have an effect on the products that are available to you. Don't waste your time looking at promotional products that have a 4 week lead time if you need them for an event in 2 weeks time.

    Print

    The print can change a standard product into something unique for your brand. Here are few examples of standard products that have been transformed by print. Superhit Extreme Branding [gallery ids="2492,2494"] [gallery ids="2505,2502"]
