Promotional Keyring's Are The Perfect Portable Marketing Tool

Promotional keyrings are perfect for every company and business. Almost everybody uses keyrings for their car keys, house keys, work keys, all kind of keys! They are generally always on the person and, therefore, make a perfect and constant reminder of whatever you may be promoting – whether that be your company or business or a specific product. This is why they are so great: Luke was incredibly forgetful. He would forget his wallet when going to a store; forget his glasses when going to the library to study; forget his phone when going to meet friends. Some people said he would forget his own head if it were possible.

His biggest problem, however, was forgetting his keys – you see, he had his house key, his car key, his back door key, the key to his bike lock, the key to his girlfriend’s house and his work keys! Every day he had to work out what he was doing that day (and most of the time he forgot at least one task) and take the keys he needed with him. Most days he forgot his house key, which was fine if he had his back door key; unfortunately, he usually forgot that too.

He often had to walk home, realising that he had forgotten his bike lock key, and leave his bike behind. There were days that he would remember his keys - he would get to work on time and not have to buzz into the building and walk the walk of shame past all his colleagues laughing at him; he would remember his girlfriend’s house key so Mr. Wibbles the cat didn’t go hungry yet again; he would even remember his house key so he wouldn’t have to call a friend or neighbour to come and let him in.

Those days didn’t happen very often.

One day, his friends decided to intervene; they’d had enough of constantly having to run around him and make excuses for his forgetfulness. They bought him a promotional keyring, from a keyring supplier and took it to his house. At first, Luke wasn’t so sure about it; he was so stuck in his ways and told his friends that it wasn’t necessary.

Luckily for Luke, his friends weren’t going to take no for an answer – they searched his house, found all of his keys, put them on the one keyring and dropped it into Luke’s hand. Three weeks later... Luke is incredibly forgetful. He forgets his wallet when going to a store; forgets his glasses when going to the library to study; forget his phone when going to meet friends. Some people say he would forget his own head if it were possible.

The one thing he doesn’t have a problem with, however, is forgetting his keys. Luke constantly tells people about how amazing he thinks keyrings are and has since bought a funkier keyring. Everyone he meets, he shows his keyring to and tells them all about that promotional keyring company that his first (and every since) keyring came from.

The moral of this story, ladies and gentlemen, is that no matter how forgetful you are, a keyring could make a huge difference; promotional keyrings are constant reminders and will be on show to other people too. That’s one perfect portable promotion – a promotional keyring.
