Corporate gifts that your customers will want to keep!

Thursday, April 7th, 2011

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.

Have a look at our range of collectable and corporate gifts today to find the right item for you!

Promotional pens are a top seller at Argon Promotions!

Thursday, March 24th, 2011

Nearly every person at some point during their day uses a pen, making this a great opportunity to “get your message across”. Whether they are for cheap giveaways at trade shows or corporate gifts for those extra special clients, we have pens to suit all occasions and affordability.

Over the years, our range of promotional pen range has increased and we pride ourselves on the wide variety on offer now, ranging from branded pens such as Bic, Parker and Sheaffer, to our mid range metal pens, to our classic plastic ball pens.

When branding your company logo we believe engraving is in a league of its own and has a very professional and subtle finish. However printing also allows your logo to stand out strong and bold to incorporate those company pantone colours you would like everyone to remember. The main thing to remember is that the printing area on a pen is valuable due to its size; therefore you must be clear about what message you would like to get across whether it is for a company slogan, website or contact details.

If timing is an issue, then don’t forget to ask our sales team about the 24 hour and 3 day service we can provide on a selection of our promotional pens (select stock only). This service has been invaluable to many customers in the past and our turnaround time is second to none- have a look at our testimonials if you don’t believe us!

Anyway, if you are ever unsure of anything or would like us to put together a quote for you, do not hesitate in picking up the phone and speaking to a member of our friendly sales team who would be delighted to help in any way possible, even if its just for a chat!

These factors make promotional notepads one of the most popular promotional items available.

Don’t let the British weather get you down- Buy a promotional umbrella!

Wednesday, February 23rd, 2011

Promotional umbrellas are a popular promotional item largely due to the need, almost universally, for umbrellas. There are approximately 60 million golfers and over 30,000 golf courses in the world. All these people potentially need an umbrella so why not give them a golf umbrella branded with your company name and logo?

The beauty of golf umbrellas is that although they are an expensive item to produce and give away to customers, if they are good quality, they will be used by the customer for a lifetime, giving your brand increased exposure over promotional items such as pens and sticky notes which have a limited shelf life.

Promotional umbrellas are also ideal for companies looking to spread their marketing message as they are designed to be a mobile item. This means your logo will be seen by lots of potential customers in addition to the person who uses the umbrella. The umbrella is a very practical item particularly if you consider the weather in the UK!

Make sure that when you select your promotional umbrella, that you choose a good quality product made from a durable material so that it will last. The cost for this item may be quite high but when you consider how long it will be used for and how often, the costs will become relative to the promotion of your marketing message.

If the services and products you sell are classed as “high end” or luxurious, giving away a high quality promotional product is ideal as it helps the potential customer to perceive you as a good quality company to work with- there is no point giving these customers a cheap giveaway, if fact- it may do more harm than good.

We have a wide range of high quality promotional umbrellas available at competitive prices- visit our website for further details.
