Gifts, Gadgets and Giveaways

Take a look around your office or home. How many branded gifts, gadgets or giveaway items have you received from an event you attended?

 A branded gift could be an item as simple as a pen or something as extravagant as a leather backpack with a company name branded into it. I have a favorite insulated client logo bag that I use often when I travel because it holds plenty, is insulated for my water bottle or travel snacks, and has extra compartments for personal items like keys, cell phone, and a pullover.

Current event industry conversations have consumers asking if branded gifts are a valuable expense or a waste of resources and junk? If planned properly at an event, a giveaway item with a logo can be a great way to promote the company. Items that are still popular today include promotional drinkware, custom tote bags, writing instruments and power banks.
