Corporate give aways???? Help!!!

[Extra 300 Driver]

Hi all,

I have a number of Airlines coming to the UK to visit from afar. I am looking for something suitable to give them, maybe something with my company logo on but most of all fun and something which won’t end up in the bottom of their desks. (Oh an not too expensive)

Airbus and Boeing always give us, USB sticks, note books, pens, calendars and fridge magnets!

So what do you lot think? You must have some good ideas!

Cheers

Nick

When I worked for PC World Toshiba always used to give us Tosh Socks. Much more useful than Compaq pens, Packard Bell fridge magnets etc.

Ssang Yong gave those on the Kyron launch an iPod nano. As far as corporate giveaways go, that was one of the better ones.

Borland gave away some Fisher Space pens with their logo on a while ago - these were okay. USB sticks with logo on sounds good.

If you think they are likely to have these already, how about getting some cases for them, with your logo printed......or something similar...

Always a fine line to draw between spending too much or too little.....

Not sure what's too expensive, but digital picture frames can be had for about £100 now (google..). Load em up with jpg's of your logo, any commercial messages etc instead of photos and they've got a nice giveaway that keeps you front of mind and will take pride of place on their desks.

We have a safety torch.

"This is not only a high quality torch, it´s also a perfect tool if you need to break the car window or cut the seat belt. The torch has a modern design and is made of aluminum. Will be delivered with a extra light bulb and 2 alkaline batteries"

Or cheaper a retractable laptop network or modem cable doofah thingy.

Or still on torch theme a mini maglite?

Or a USB massage pad.

How much do you want to spend pp??

Edited to add how about luggage straps, so IF they get used, not only does your name go out to the clients but everyone standing at check in / baggage retrieval?

OK to give you some ideas of prices I would pay for these types of things inserted below. Only the first torch thing was in your price range all the others were cheaper.

No nowt like that, most of our givaway stuff is designed to have synergy with our own "business" :ahem:

The exception is the VIP stuff. Like His and Hers matching watch sets

Difficult these days to get something different that doesn't get chucked.

Nice piece of glassware? No winged horses?

Lot of our stuff relates to knives, but our bods do a load of hunting and with airline rules gets a bit tricky these days. I steer clear of them as its a bit embarrassing when your guest ends up in the brown stuff in airport security.

Golf stuff always goes down well with Americans and Japs.

Like a small towel to dry your balls with :ahem: that retracts into a waterproof cover, looks bit like a collapsible umbrella in it's case if ykwim.

This is just stuff we have out of a fair old list in our giveaway stores for the PR jokers to grab if have the need of something like that.

The general rule of thumb is the crappier the product the better the gift to try and bribe the decision makers
