  • The only advertising people thank you for

    Promotional products are the only form of advertising consumers say “thank you” for. Now that’s goodwill you can brand.

  • Recipients spend 27% more

    And they’re 75% more likely to return. It’s not swag — it’s ROI in disguise.

  • 9 in 10 recall the branding

    7 in 10 recall the call to action. Unlike digital ads, promo products don’t get scrolled past.

  • All five senses

    Promo engages sight, touch, hearing, smell and even taste. Sensory marketing? You’re holding it.

  • Works with every channel

    Promotional products work in tandem with digital, direct mail and social media. Smart marketers integrate; smarter ones include promo.

  • 4x more responses

    Direct mail campaigns with a promotional product incentive generated four times the responses. Want more engagement? Add a gift.
