PROMOTION COMMOTION

PowerStick and PowerTrip - Never leave home without it!

At the recently concluded PPAI event in Las Vegas, promotional product distributors (of which we are!) had the pleasure of discovering many of the new gifts and gizmos available for branding and executive gift giving.  One of the best products was also an award winner at the Consumer Electronic Show.

Think Picnic!

I know! It's still Wintertime and parts of the country are still dealing with the consequences of Mother Nature!  That's actually what got me thinking about the Summertime!  And the warm weather and bright sunlight.

I am also working with a client for June promotional items, already.  AND, since it is that time of year when our suppliers send us their new catalogs, here is one favorite supplier with brandable items that you can find in fine gift retail outlets.  Picnic Time!

Last year, we noticed a trend in gifting quality promotional items as our clientele realized that well thought out giving was worth every penny spent.  Promotional gifts lasted longer, they were 'keepers' and some were even re-ordered.  Working with a professional promotional consultant gives you an advantage as we see ALL the new items, are aware of ALL the sale products and have great relationships with premier suppliers.

We hope you all have a wonderful, prosperous 2011!  If you would like a consultation or have any queries, simply send us an email at salesATwebbmarDOTcom and we'll be happy to find the perfect gift or giveaway for you and your company.

October is Breast Cancer Month

There's probably not a family in the world who has not been affected by cancer ~ especially Breast Cancer. The whole month of October has gone pink in terms of awareness for this particular disease.  Many of our suppliers apply some proceeds from the sale of pink awareness products to foundations that are dedicated to Research and Development for a cure. 

Pink is the color of hope.  Hope for a cure and hope for all our loved ones who may have been touched by this disease.

In light of this coming month, we are pleased to present one of our able suppliers who have cool pink items especially for this cause.

We will be honored to facilitate the procurement of these branded items for you should you plan on an awarement program for October and beyond.  Please feel free to contact SALESatWEBBMARdotCOM for any inquiries, including pricing and minimum order quantity.

Together, let us hope there is a cure.

They're Advertising, Are You?

It's a question many businesses ask me these days.  Who is advertising.  And my reply has always been "the winners".  Those businesses who are determined to be here for the long haul, through this economy and all the other scenarios that face the current business climate.

The truth of the matter is that we are seeing more and more people realizing the fact that in order to stay in business, they must physically reach out to the potential end customer.  Promotional products are as affordable as your budget is tight ~ and when you work with a distributor who is a member of the Promotional Product Association (PPAI), you work with someone in the know.  Allow them to show you the magic.

Ask any thriving corporation.  Then ask about their successful stories.

Because it's not just about pens.  There's a method to that madness, and sometimes, a pen is not the ideal giveaway.

In these business times, VALUE and Return on Investment, is something that we factor in to each idea we present.

So ~ if you think you're going to wait out the current climate, please think again.  Because your competition?  They're advertising.

And you should be too.

Hello Mr. Sun

It's almost officially Spring.  Today, however, it almost felt like Summer.  We were in shorts and tees ~ sans jacket the entire day.

Which brings me to cool summer things which companies like to plan around this time of year.

TRAVELING some?  Well, get that car organized with this cool collapsible organizer.

 

This is an excellent upscale gift. It is a superior, high quality three section trunk organizer with removable food safe cooler. Great for holding auto accessories, sports gear, tailgating parties, groceries, picnics, and family outings. Mesh pocket for maps etc. It folds up flat when not in use. Made with sturdy construction, it holds everything in place [600D polycanvas].

A corporate gift that will delight special clients or even better, your dedicated employees.

For more information, contact salesATwebbmarDOTcom.  Mention this article and we will waive the set up fees for you.

And while you're at it ~ Happy Spring, everybody!

Private Label Water

So, who said private label water has to look like a bottle of water?

It doesn't.

 
Take it up a notch ~ or two.   You can bet this bottle will be reused. 

Time to think outside the box bottle?   We'll tell you how.  Just ask, we have solutions and ideas.
