Promotional gift companies have great ideas for promoting your business. Sometimes so many ideas that it is hard to choose what would be best for your company to give away. The promotional gift company that you want to choose should have a good customer service rep or salesman who can help you pick just the right product. Here are a few tips for when you are speaking with the promotional products company.

Explain in detail to the salesperson what type of event you are having. This will narrow down the products tremendously. For example if you your business is having a Christmas party you will not want to order in golf tees with the company name on them. Then again maybe you do. If you have a lot of golfers in your clientèle maybe you want to make a gift basket out of golfing items to say Merry Christmas with. So always give explicit details on the event itself.

Think about the type of customers that you are going to be giving this gift to. Are they business people or are they stay at home moms. Maybe they are sports fanatics or farmers but whoever they are you will want to make your gift one that they will use or one that they will see often. For example, a calendar for the computer puts your business name in front of their face all the time.

At this point you should have your gifts narrowed down to where you are going to have to get detailed. Choose your colors either to match your company or theirs. For example if you are giving products out at a specific school you might want your items to be in their school colors but with your logo.

Pricing is very important to your budget. You made be shopping for several items or just one item but either way your promotional products company should still be bending over backwards to help you. Do not be shocked though promotional products are not as cheap as what one might think.

Promotional give always need to be well thought out and that is what your promotional gift company should be helping you do. Make a list of questions before getting your customer service representative on the phone. This will save you as much time as it will the promotional gift company. You will go from a broad search to a much narrowed one which will make your choices much simpler. Remember sometimes we have to spend a little money to make more money. Everybody likes to get something for free so why not have your company’s logo on it.
