Go Long! For these Promotional Items

My favorite time of year is just beginning, football season! I love when the weather starts to cool down and it gets comfortable to tailgate outside. There are also a lot of great fall and outdoor promotional items in our industry as well, and they just seem to keep coming out with even more unique items each year. One of the coolest fall promotional items that I enjoy is the new sweatshirt blankets. They are inspired and modeled after a comfy sweatshirt and they are perfect to promote collegiate programs and school systems. They would be a great item for incoming freshman and are also perfect for families to bundle up in while watching their star athlete during those chilly Friday night games.

Promotional items for NASCAR

Labor Day weekend is almost here and I am really excited for my three-day weekend. This has been the longest week of my life it feels. I am going to the Atlanta Motor Speedway for the NASCAR race and all its’ festivities. Promotional items are always a huge hit at the races and it is always fun to see what the promotional industry will come up with next. Last year ESPN even had promotional cups with a special design so you can keep your eyes on the race while taking a sip. Promotional items are huge success because there are so many people in one location just looking to rack up on free stuff.

Promotional items for the avid traveler

Summer is coming to a close and many of us are trying to fit in a vacation before the Fall. I have some relatives flying in from Germany this weekend and I know they are already excited about taking in the sites. They will definitely buy promotional items from the places they visit as a remembrance. They could also benefit from promotional items specifically for travelers though as well, such as promotional luggage tags or even the promotional luggage locks to keep their things safe and secure. They are here for a couple weeks, so I know they will have plenty to see and do.

Hey batter, batter! Swing for these promotional items

I took my boyfriend to the Atlanta Braves game yesterday to celebrate for his birthday. It was a sweltering hot day game and I definitely noticed a couple cooling promotional items carried by fans. Promotional items such as rally towels were soaked and used as a cooling towel for your head and neck and promotional misters were being sold for those in serious need of air movement. I wish I thought of taking a promotional item like that myself, maybe I would have been at least a tad more comfortable. At least the Braves won and my boyfriend loved the seats.

Do some spring cleaning with Promotional items

I read an article on Yahoo about how an unorganized work area can reflect on your personality and efficiency as an employee. Promotional items are often not thought of as organizational tools, but think about it, the most common promotional items are functional items like pen cup holders, clips and note holders. Recipients of promotional items that are used on or around your desk such as staplers, memo holders and sticky notes, to name a few, have the most advertising exposure. So don’t count the standard items out when you are ready to spruce up your work area and get your brand out there.

Promotional items for World Cup finals fever

The World Cup is coming to a finale this weekend with the Netherlands battling against Spain. Unfortunately the team I was rooting for, Germany, will have to settle for third place if they can beat Uruguay. There are events being promoted all around town to watch the finals, so you know that promotional items will be a hot commodity for fans. One of the best promotional items I always enjoy receiving at pub events are the promotional t-shirts. Who knows, some places may even have promotional items mimicking the Vuvuzelas, but hopefully not, since they are pretty darn annoying.

Promotional items that will make you dance

As I was researching the Internet for a blog topic, I came across a YouTube Video of an older man dancing to Lady Gaga's Poker Face. The entire dance was choreographed and he was really getting down. This got me thinking about some of my favorite promotional items. I love listening to music any chance I get, so anytime promotional items involve speakers or compatibility with my iPod, I am immediately intrigued. I have a promotional speaker dock that I can use to play my iPod at the pool, on my deck, anywhere. So easy to take along and just rock out.
