World Cup Fever!

The World Cup 2010 is here and it’s sure to be the biggest sporting event of all time! The whole of England is dreaming of Wayne Rooney and Co performing well and bringing home the biggest prize of all – and we for one wish them the very best of luck!

The world cup only comes once every 4 years and promotional gifts for the world cup will be very popular this summer – especially if England can do well! This allows you the unique opportunity to show your support for the England team and to promote your brand with some great incentives. We can provide you with many customised gifts including:

Football Stress Balls
Footballs (full size or mini)
Football rattle
Referees whistle
In car hanging air fresheners
Hand Clappers
Bottle Opener
Cap

“Every team will have to meet awkward opponents, play in difficult conditions and win matches to win the World Cup. We’ve played and beaten USA and Slovenia recently, both are well-organised, they like to pass the ball and they’ll be good opponents. Algeria beat Egypt and they are a good team too, but I have to learn more about them. I know from experience as a player that when you play here (in the FIFA World Cup™) the pressure is different and the mentality is different. But are we going to win the World Cup? We have to!”

England Manager Fabio Capello on England’s World Cup Prospects

Why Do Smart Companies Use Promotional Gifts?

This is a very good question; most companies will use promotional gifts several times a year – but what is the benefit to the organisation you may ask?

- What will a gift say to your customer? It will show your companies genuine gratitude for their continued custom – and this will help you to develop lasting brand loyalty. A free gift is always welcome and exciting for the recipient – everyone loves a freebie!! After all it’s not just a free gift but it also shows that that you think about your customers and that you value them.

- Promotional incentives are a cost effective way to advertise your business when compared to more traditional methods of advertising. We understand that cost is more important than ever in todays economic climate and we pride ourselves on giving our customers fantastic value for money! There are many inexpensive items including pens, notepads, keyrings, stress items etc.

- They are constant reminders to the recipient and those around them – this helps create a more effective brand presence than other popular forms of marketing. Get your name out there – put your logo and contact details in front of your target audience.

- A great promotional gift will be of constant use to the customer. If the recipient is using the gift on a daily basis they will tend to think of your company more often i.e a letter opener, USBs, mugs, pens etc. If you need advice regarding useful and practical promotional gifts we are very happy to provide all the ideas you need.

- Employees can be motivated to achieve certain targets if appropriate incentives are in place. A suitable promotional gift can form a vital part of rewarding employees. This can also be applied to your customers – why not use a points system to reward customers with gifts of high perceived value which show your continued commitment towards them.

- Promotional gifts can be very successfully used at many important events ranging from anniversaries, conferences, open days, trade shows and many more...

- The bottom line is that we are all in business to make a profit. Promotional gifts are often useful in helping to convert business leads into important customers. If a prospect is making a decision about who to do business with (and often they will have several good options) – the right promotional gift may help to motivate their decision in your favour!

Although brief we hope the above is useful in explaining why promotional gifts are so popular. There are many good reasons to use promotional gifts – and we can help you choose the right option at the right price. It is very important to select a gift that will suit the event /occasion – and we have the experience to help you do that – so have a nice cuppa while we do the work for you...!
