We have all received promo items and thought it was nice to receive something for free, but more often than not, we never used these items in our everyday lives. The mistake many companies make when purchasing promotional products is not spending enough time exploring the target market, and not spending the working smart with their marketing monies.
Promo items should be well made and well designed. If you give your clients and customers cheap products it is a reflection on your business policies. It sends a message that you don't do things thoroughly, or you give insincere gifts. Promotional products don't have to be expensive to be useful and fashionable. With the right audience, a simple key chain can be an effective marketing tool.
Why would you want to spend your money on something that is shoved into the back of the closet or thrown out in the trash? Plus, since when one of the all end goals of promotional items, is to show your customers your appreciation, would you want to give the very best? Not taking the time to find promotional gifts with some sort of practical use, you are basically wasting your money. You'd be better off spending your marketing budget on television or newspaper advertising.

There are a number of affordable items you can give your customers to show them you appreciate their continued support of your business. Things like coffee mugs; calendars and desk clocks can be bought in bull, personalized with your logo or other graphics and handed out for a reasonable fee. These items are excellent for reminding your customers about your products and services on a daily basis.
