5 TOP TIPS WHEN CHOOSING YOUR CORPORATE GIFTS
1. Choose corporate gifts that you
would be happy to own and put your name on
The best test of whether your clients or customers will be pleased with an incentive or promotional gift is your own feeling about it. If you think it's a cheesy, inexpensive bit of promotional fluff, chances are that they'll see it the exact same way. Remember that your customers and clients will associate your company with any item that carries its name. When you choose promo giveaway items, be sure to choose items that speak well of your company.

2. The
best corporate gifts are the ones that your recipients will use daily
If
the aim of your corporate gifts campaign is to keep your name in the minds of
your customers, choose items that you think will get daily use. Some good
examples are bags, mugs, useful desk gadgets such as powerbanks or mobile
telephone holders and writing materials.
3. Consider
your goal when choosing corporate gifts and make them relevant to your event
There's always a reason for giving a gift and that reason will help dictate the items that you choose to give. If your intent in giving the gifts is to increase the brand recognition of your company then you should choose something that is associated with your business to help further the association in the minds of your customers. Also consider the event as promotional gifts that are meant to increase name recognition will likely be far different than those chosen to mark a celebration or anniversary for your business.
