I own a small business, it’s about selling clothes.
Currently, I didn’t use any promotional product to promote my product. But I give some discount percentage for each sale. It’s really effective and fit with my small business. I do think that giving any promotional product for my small business will be very costly.
So I think, promotional gift is not too important for small business.

Being a business of 1 I use promotional products religiously. Yes, you do have to pay attention to budget, but I find that the items that I use are incredibly cost effective. I know its not for short term gain, but for long term exposure and identitity with my customers. Granted, I don’t overdo it either. Any small business should have these in their marketing arsenal. If you don’t..I think you’re missing the boat

A perfecting looking blog. Not just the simple pages, but the content is also informative. I knew all about promotional gifts and how to provide them only after going through your blog.

As you pointed out correctly, a small business probably has limited promotional budget (or for that matter a limited budget for everything). So the trick is to make every gift count to maximise the available resources. Think through what you want to achieve and by the most economic means without sacrificing quality.

Promotional products for small business , of course as kayy says need not be expensive in order to gain attention of the public. Indeed even an inexpensive product may do all the needy to gain its own reputation, it all depends on the type of product we promote, it can be either a Tshirt, a pen stand, a stapler , or even a paper weight.

Kayy, once again I agree with you. As we know, small business normally have small budget to spend on their marketing or advertising. However, it doesn’t mean they could not success in their business, isn’t?

As stated above, promotional campaign is cheaper and reliable. So, their could use this strategy.

The important thing is planning the marketing strategies. Be creative and try to think outside the box.

I agree that joint-venture also could help spread your business and minimize your marketing cost. Make sure choose right partners and win-win situation deal.

Promotional items needn’t be hugely expensive either. A popular choice amongst writers for example is a bookmark with their book details and website emblazoned on it plus release date information if it’s for an upcoming one. Handy indeed if you’re promoting your book ahead of time! You can leave a pile of them in a library, bookstore or school or hand out at any presentations you give. Simple products can be both effective and cost effective.

Make your business well known through promotional items. Give it that glow and attention that is really needs. Maybe a customized hand bag with your logo? The key is to make sure your bag stands out from the crowd. A catch phrase that is both funny and easy to remember would do the job. It is like that of designing a website; keep it simple, clean and yet unique in style.
