Argon Promotional Products and Promotional Gifts. » 2011 » April

Promotional merchandise is a fantastic way to promote your company and in turn adds growth and profit to your business by spreading awareness and raising awareness of your brand.

How does it do this? Well anything that can be seen by people/potential customers day in, day out is a sure fire way to promote your company effectively- this is where promotional merchandise excels. Choose an item that people will use on a regular basis and you are guaranteed repeat exposure to your brand which in turn increases awareness!

Make sure that the promotional item you choose is right for your target audience- if you choose an item that people won’t use, your message will be thrown away! Look at what your customers will find useful or something interesting that will catch their eye! On our website, we have lots of bespoke and interesting promotional items that will create a real talking point in any office or workplace. Alternatively choose an item such as a mug, mousemat or pen as these are the items that will be used on a daily basis. Items like this are also more likely to appeal to a wide variety of people as almost everyone will use a pen!

Promotional items are an ideal marketing tool because of the variety of products available- this means there will always be something to suit your budget, no matter how small or large it is!

Conference folders are carried around by businessmen on the move all day, every day which is why they make the perfect advertising tool as well as a useful method of personal organisation, holding documents and paperwork together.

As soon as you arrive at a meeting and place your folder on the desk with your firm’s company details on, you are promoting your business. There are endless destinations where your folder may end up, advertising to clients you had never even thought about promoting to. You may even increase exposure overseas if you travel between countries, globalising your contacts.

You can brand your conference folder by print using your company’s pantone colours, or even better, you could emboss or foil block them for that classy, professional standard people have come to expect from you.

The great thing about conference folders is that they come in many different materials, making these affordable to all companies. They range from our basic PVC, high quality Italian Lugano and Belluno PU (leather look), up to our leather range of Balmoral, Ascot and Sandringham Nappa Leather for those top clients.

When giving away conference folders it is always worth thinking about other promotional gifts that would go well with this product. A nice metal engraved pen awaiting your client in the pen loop when they open the folder or a printed A4 pad with your logo on each sheet may also be a worthwhile complementary investment.

Anyway, take a look at our huge range of conference folders and see for yourself- there are endless options out there and if it is bespoke that you are looking for then give us a ring with your specifications and we will organise a detailed quotation for you.

There are a wide variety of promotional items available that are ideal for use in the office or workplace. Why is it important that the promotional items you choose are used in the workplace? Well its somewhere where your brand or company will get increased exposure as your customer sees your logo or marketing message but so do their colleagues. Desk items get moved from one desk to another increasing exposure to your brand. Choose an interesting promotional item and your company could even become an office talking point!

So what products are ideal for an office? Think anything desk top related- Mouse mats, pens and sticky notes are a good place to start. Most people use one or all three of these items, why not send a desk kit out to your customers containing one of each of these items? A set will look stylish as well as increasing the exposure to your marketing message.

USB’s are a great office giveaway as not only will they be used in the workplace but they are also portable meaning your customer will take them everywhere they go- try one of our keyring USB’s for added practicality. There are also bespoke USB’s available if you want to create a promotional item that people will talk about- use your imaginationto think about the most eye catching design possible!

For something a bit different why not try a stress ball? Again these can be bespoke so choose a shape that relates to the products or services you sell. Customers will keep the stress toy on their desk and again, if you choose an interesting design, your product will become a talking point in the office!

With the sunny weather looking set to continue, it seems that summer is fast approaching and with it comes the festival season!

There are now a wide range of different musical festivals in the UK to cater for all genres of music. From folk to opera to pop to rock, there is something for everyone!

One of the most commonly used promotional items at a festival is a promotional wristband. The bands are used to identify you as a festival-goer and allow you access to the event and they are a low cost and effective way for festival organisers to ensure only people who have paid for a ticket get in!

Promotional bands are available in a wide range of different colours which can be used to distinguish different price levels for example VIP’s can wear purple while everyone else wears green. The wristbands are made from reinforced paper that is hard wearing. If you want something more substantial try a silicon or rubber band, also available on our website.

We also have a wide range of lanyards which can be used by organisers of the event or again for VIP visitors who can keep the lanyard as a souvenir.

Whatever your requirement, Argon Promotions will be able to help, give us a call today!

Printed promotional bags are a great way to promote your brand and create awareness. This is because they are used by almost everyone and as they walk around, they will be advertising your company, spreading awareness for free!

It is becoming increasingly important to produce promotional items that are eco-friendly to promote your companies environmental credentials as well as your marketing message. In the past, promotional bags have been criticised for being wasteful, particularly plastic bags that get used and thrown away. To counteract this, there are now a huge variety of bags available designed to be friendlier to the environment whilst remaining a useful item.

Printed paper bags are incredibly popular as they are an extremely low cost item that can be printed full colour with your company name or logo. The print space on the paper bag is also large giving you the opportunity to maximise your marketing message. Why not include the fact that the bag is recyclable and eco-friendly to promote your environmental credentials? Customers love to use companies that care about the environment so why not be one of them?!

For a more reusable bag, try a printed canvas bag. These bags can be produced from unbleached cotton that is both sustainable and renewable. The bags are hard wearing and long lasting ensuring repeated usage from the customer. Create a colourful and attractive message or image on your canvas bag to guarantee that people will want to use the bag again and again!

We offer bottles with plastic tops, metal tops with carabiner and even the famous SIGG bottles which can be both printed or engraved with your logo for extra value.

The vast majority of promotional giveaways are fairly disposable items that customers will keep but eventually throw away. This is ok if the item you produce is relatively cheap and the message or campaign you print on it has a limited shelf life but what if you want your message to last for longer?

There is a wide range of collectable merchandise available that can be printed with your company name and message encouraging customers to keep your merchandise (and your message) on display. A common example of this is collectable cars or models. This item is ideal for any company in the automotive industry from car manufacturers to taxi companies! Customers will display your car or model with pride in their office spreading your marketing message to all who see it.

Desktop items are another favourite item and if you choose the right product, are guaranteed to be kept on someones desk for years to come. Why not look at our range of premium desktop gifts- items produced in silver or brushed steel are extremely attractive and desirable meaning customers will keep them and use them again and again. Try a silver pen in a presentation box that can be kept on someones desk, this can even be followed up with a silver bookmark or calculator to create a matching set of items.

With high value items such as the above, we recommend engraving rather than printing your message to add to the high quality look and feel of the product.

Promotional lanyards are used frequently for a wide range of different applications. Perhaps one of their most common uses is at exhibitions and conferences- if you have been to an event this year, its likely your name and company was printed on a piece of paper that you wore round your neck on a promotional lanyard! In addition to this, lanyards can also be used to hold identification cards at a place of work, keys to allow access to certain buildings and offices and even tools.

The use of lanyards has increased as technology has advanced allowing for specially designed lanyards to now hold mobile phones, USB’s and MP3 players. This makes lanyards an extremely practical and functional promotional item!

When choosing a promotional lanyard, its important to think about who your target audience is- what do they need their lanyard to hold? Is the lanyard for security reasons or is it for a practical reason such as holding a mobile phone or pen so that hands are kept free? Make sure you know why you are using a lanyard before you select one!

The lanyards can be printed full colour with any logo or company message you want and are a really visible promotional item to use as people will wear your marketing message all day.

We have a wide range of lanyards available on our website, have a look today to find out the right one for you!
