By Rick Chapo Every company knows, to a certain extent, that promotional items are one of the best ways to advertise their product or service - but, do unusual promotional products work better than the average item? There are a certain set of promotional items that nearly every company can, and does, use. These include pens, pads of paper, keychains and other small plastic items (rulers, etc). Now, these items may work just fine for your company. If you supply offices, or work in another office environment, the typical items may actually be the best way to keep yourself in the customers minds. Office workers tend to use these items everyday. If you are a company that does something different and unique, however, you may find that unusual promotional products work better. For a computer company, for example, a pen might work for your promotion. But a less common product, like a mouse pad, writable CD or even a USB flash drive printed with your name and logo will make much more of an impact. As these items go right along with your companys products and services, you will be foremost in the minds of those who use them. Another example of using unusual products to promote yourself is to use an item that is totally different from what the rest of the companies in your product area are using. If you are a carpenter, and find that most of your competition is using tape measures (printed with their names) for promotion - think outside the norm and come up with a different promo. How about golf balls with your companys name - or an insulated bag? The possibilities are endless. Finally, you can choose to have unusual promotional products that really go beyond what anyone expects. Have a product made just for you - say a figurine of your companys mascot, or even a hat shaped like your companys logo. Mix it up - if you are going for unusual, dont stick to the types of items you have used in the past or that are in use by competing companies. Instead, think of the type of item you would like to receive for free, and think of an item you would keep. Unusual promotional products work better - this is a fact. While you may not be able to afford an item that is unusual and different as a small business, as your company grows - think about adding different items to your advertising repertoire.
