Extending Functionality While Getting Your Message Out
Although some of the financial news over the last few weeks has been positive that is in the corporate arena. The average consumer is still struggling through high unemployment, stagnant wages and several years of living through a recession. Giving away corporate gifts with too much flare and that can potentially be viewed as trinkets is no longer popular. Instead take a look at functional employee gift ideas.
The entire point of the new late season line from Leed's was to encourage this type of giving. The Leeds Cook-Safe Cutting Board Set with your logo accomplishes this goal by providing the recipient a food grade quality present. Each board is FDA compliant and color coded to prevent cross contamination while making a meal. The front of the stand has a color coded label which allows the chef to keep raw foods away from cooked foods, meats away from vegetables permanently which can increase overall food safety. No printing is done on the boards but instead the stand is decorated which is unobtrusive and looks good sitting on a kitchen counter. Although cheese and knife sets continue to be popular you do have the concern of giving sharp objects to a mixed audience, this set is safe for any age bracket or user base.
But what if your intended target is not of cooking age? The popular gift right now among school age students has to do with silicone bands and cool shapes. Take advantage of that with the Leeds Silicone Bracelet USB Flash Drive 1GB with your logo imprinted. The silicone is flexible, is available in a bunch of attractive colors and looks a lot like the bands kids are actively trading. This means it is likely to be widely accepted in schools especially the middle school through college levels. Your logo, school group or team name gets imprinted in bold colors on the bracelet and meanwhile you have a gigabyte of storage space to carry your homework, office presentations or payroll information back and forth from work or school. Better yet take a look at branding one of these drives for Breast Cancer Awareness Month as they are available in pink.
Whatever way you choose to go this buying season keep in mind a lot of people are struggling and by giving a custom promotional gift this holiday season you can also help those in need. As strange as it sounds by providing a functional gift you are filling a need, reducing the expense to the recipient and in turn getting some advertising in the form of your printed logo. If you pick the right item you may find demand is significant and referrals and re-orders will take off. We will introduce some other items online this week.
