Ignite Marketing offers a wide variety of items such as clocks, watches, key chains, and so on with your corporate logo silkscreened into them. There’s just about everything here from food gifts to golf clubs and the pricing is really very competitive.
Of course the most useful person for these types of gifts is giving them to customers or vendors so they have a calculator or pen with your company logo on it in front of them each day. If you have a smaller company then it might be wiser to make a logo with your web site domain or just an 800 number made into it as well.

When doing some comparison shopping with similar places (like some specialty pen retailers who so silk screening) they are very competitive. These are inexpensive items meant to be given away at trade shows and customers or clients. The difference with Ignite is they have such a broad selection of products compared to any other I found, so the one stop shopping aspect of it is nice. Also you can order a sample of just one to try items out before getting hundreds of something to check out quality (especially important with things like food items).

This strategy is all about building customer loyalty with gifts, as well as promoting your company logo. I personally would stick to items that people will use over the years, like a car dealer giving away free tire pressure gauges at local car show, pens of course for retail stores to give to customers, whatever is specific to your industy. I’d also call them when you’ve decided to get a firm ship date if you’re planning a giveaway for a trade show or something with a fixed deadline.

While it’s not going to get viewed as much as more permanent items, I really like the fortune cookies with your logo on the wrapper and a custom fortune you can write that’s baked inside. They score high marks on variety and price for customized items.
