New Promotional Merchandise for The New Decade

2011 is the perfect opportunity to try something new with your promotional merchandise. It’s a time to take a step ahead of competition and use products that you haven’t before. There’s certainly nothing wrong with having the same promo items produced every year, but there’s no harm in also trying something fresh and exciting!

If your company has always had promotional pens made, you could consider having a completely different style to the pens you had before? The value pens your company has been giving away for the past 5 years could be replaced with some stylish metal pens giving clients and staff that added classy touch! There are so many different styles of pen available you can easily find the change that suits you!

There are certain types of promotional keyrings you will see everywhere. They’ve been around for a while, and once you’ve seen one, you’ve seen them all! Thanks to improvements in manufacturing technology, there are all kinds of little gadgets you could replace your normal promo keyrings with! Bottle openers and torches provide a useful aspect to your promotional keyrings. Not only is your brand spread on loads of sets of keys, but you provide clients and staff with something they can actually use day to day.

If you’re looking to completely step away from your normal promotional merchandise, you could consider planning ahead with events and choosing something ready for the future. In 2012 the Olympics come to England, so you could consider thinking about a sport related promo item. It may be a while away, but thinking early enough and far enough outside of ‘the box’ and you may just beat your competition to the line!
