It's that time of year again for trade shows, meetings and conventions. Deciding what promotional products to use at your event can be a demanding and confusing task. Do you want something low-priced? A small item than can be transported easily to the show and home with the attendees? A unique idea that will set you apart? Or all three??

That is where Best Promotions comes in. We can help you realize all your promotional product goals with one click or phone call. We can help you sort through the all the alternatives and come up with the giveaway that's just right for you.

For example, we can tell you that non-woven totes are still very hot! Tote bags have a limited life so a new bag is always welcome. They also let you show your "green" side by giving away an eco-friendly promotional product. And you can't beat the imprint size; make your logo giant or add your slogan or contact information. They come in many different shapes and colors to fit your business needs. As an added bonus for trade show giveaways, the attendees can put their other items in your tote to carry around the shows.

Another way to look at promotional giveaways is to choose something that will have daily use and exposure. Who doesn't like a hot beverage on these winter mornings? So why not give attendees a unique travel mug; so many shapes, sizes and colors are available. Check out the sleek stainless steel travel mugs or go for the traditional ceramic mug. Most mugs can be imprinted with the same logo on both sides for maximum impact. Here are three of our most popular mugs for giveaways.

And remember, studies show that 39% of people who received a promotional product could recall the name of the company imprinted on the item as long as six months after receiving it. (Study by Schreber & Associates). So call one of our experienced account executives to get the help you need.
