Five Reasons Your Business Should Be Using Promotional Items

Last updated on April 11, 2011 by Sozo Staff 1 Comment

Is your company using promotional products? At CFPromo, we believe that you are losing out on a tremendous potential if you are not. In fact, here are five reasons we believe that you should be using promotional products to help your business succeed.

Branding

One of the most important tasks your marketing department will undertake is building a branding strategy. Promotional products can be a key part of this. When you place items in your customer’s hands that have your logo or motto printed on the front, you are helping solidify your brand in their minds. If the products are useful, you help establish the idea that your company is worth doing business with.

Improving the Customer Experience

When your customer walks out of your business with something free, even if it is something simple like a pen, they walk away with a smile on their face. Promotional items help improve the customer experience. When you improve the customer experience, you help ensure that the customer will return. You may also help encourage the customer to tell someone else about your company and what you offer. That, in turn, attracts more customers to your store.

Celebrating Company Milestones

Are you about to celebrate an important milestone, like 50 years in business? This is a great marketing opportunity, and promotional items give you the chance to showcase this milestone while still providing something useful for your customers. Order a bunch of water bottles with your milestone printed on the front, and give them to your customers at your celebration party to help your marketing goals while also celebrating with those who have brought you that success.

Rewarding Employees

Many companies think of promotional items as something they buy for their customers, but these can also be given to employees. If your company is in the habit of offering incentives or gifts for employment anniversaries or for exceptional performance, you can use promotional items as these gifts. When the employee uses the item, your name and image will be showcased out there in the community.

Enticing Trade Show Stops

If you attend trade shows, you need a way to get people to stop at your table. A bowl of candy might work at a fair where children attend, but promotional items work better when the audience is made up of adults. Everyone loves a freebie, and that moment they stop at your booth to pick up the item you are offering gives you a chance to make a potential contact.

There are many other ways you can use promotional items for your business. If you take the time to brainstorm a bit, you will likely find several excellent fits. If you are not already using promotional items, CFPromo is ready to get you started with affordable products and excellent customer service.

    Nice article. Promotional products are cost effective marketing tool. Having a company name and logo printed on these items creates brand recall for your business. These items are best distributed during tradeshows and other corporate events. Other than promotion, it can also be given as incentive to employees for a job well done or to make customers feel valued and appreciated.
