- Written by Morgan Mackey
Promotional products offer great support to councils, government, charities and not-for profit organisations running Public Interest and Educational campaigns.
Important information such as healthy living, recycling/sustainability, sun protection, community programmes, littering, etc, is often difficult to convey with any impact.
Promotional products are tangible and long lasting, enabling the message to be put literally into the hands of the target and for a long time.
Here is an example ..

Check out this new water bottle called Vegas.
You could wiggle your hips and use as a pretend microphone to sing Viva Las Vegas (a corny Elvis movie reference if you are not old enough to remember !)
... or better still, brand with your logo and quench the thirst of lucky customers.
The new Vegas promotional water bottle has great star appeal.
Features:
- 500ml
- concave easy grip body
- choice of colour trim (red, black, blue, green)
- BPS free
Perfect for use on the go, but equally smart enough to grace an office desk. Great for healthy living initiatives, staff reward, conference room gift ... use as is, or you could even fill with other goodies and use as a prize.

Customer Love this Valentine's Day
- Details
- Written by Morgan Mackey
Customers, clients, fans, staff and other supporters .. they are essential to your business, whether you a multinational or a small operation. In fact, without them, a business wouldn't be in business for very long !
While showing appreciation should be a regular event, it is often a neglected aspect of business activity.
So, with a new year underway, why not use Valentine's Day 2015 as the perfect opportunity to start some 'thank you' engagement with those that matter to your business and play a role in its success.
The starting day is really not significant, however, Valentine's Day provides a ready made theme to convey your heart-felt love i.e. in a grateful, never take you for granted, we care about you kind of love.
For cafes, restaurants, theatres/cinemas and retailers, it is easy to see how to incorporate Valentine's Day thank you appreciation gift and message.
- Promotional fudge or coconut ice with a coffee order
- A gift on every cinema seat on Valentine's Day, such as stadium cup
- A lollipop or give-away when a customer comes into your store and orders
... even a hairdresser can have some fun e.g. a branded nail fille with the message 'we love cutting your hair'.
Be creative, whatever your industry, there is a promotional product that can work a treat for you.
Promotional Products - What's the lead time?
- Details
- Written by Morgan Mackey
When planning promotional products and branded apparel, always check the lead-times, as they will vary greatly.
- Many promotional items are held as 'stock' locally in Australia, ready for decoration. Lead times can vary from a quick supply of 3-4 days to a couple of weeks.
- Some promotional IT items such as flashdrives, are often available as an indent order with a 'quick' supply of 10-14 days.
- Custom made or large volumne orders (e.g. plush toys, bags, apparel) are often produced and supplied ex factory off-shore and have lead-times of 8-16 weeks.
The time of year, such as the festive season, can put decorators under pressure, so allow longer than usual. And remember, the leadtime only starts from the artwork approval being signed.
