7 Fun Promotional Products to Celebrate Your Business


When attending events, people coming to your booth enjoy picking up promotional products that remind them of your business and are useful in their homes.

A study by the Advertising Specialty Institute revealed an 85% recall rate on promotional items. In addition, most households have an average of 30 promotional items, including pens, mugs, and travel accessories, which help increase the recall rate for businesses. 

Handing out promotional items has many benefits for businesses, including: 

  • Increasing website traffic
  • Boosting brand awareness
  • Helping increase free customer reviews and referrals
  • Finding new social media followers

Below are seven fun promotional products to celebrate your business and hand out to customers and potential customers.

7 Fun Promotional Products to Celebrate Your Business

1. Coffee Cups and Mugs

Branded coffee cups and mugs are a favorite among those who collect promotional products and swag. Clients and customers will be reminded of your business every time they enjoy their morning coffee or cup of tea. 

2. Portable Chargers or Power Banks

Everyone has some portable electronic device, such as phones and tablets, which they carry.

Giving out portable chargers or power banks offers customers a way to charge their wireless devices without finding an outlet. Many people do not spend the money on these devices and will carry the one given to them with your company logo everywhere they go. 

3. Travel Pack and Accessories

Several accessories help travelers make their journeys much more effortless and offer a unique opportunity to create and distribute promotional items.

Create a travel pack and accessories if you have travel customers, such as travel notepads, passport holders, organizers, and bag tags. 

4. Food, Snacks, and Chocolates

Food, snacks, and chocolates make for good prizes or promotional giveaways.

Work with a local food brand to create branded goodies to give away to customers or at an upcoming community event. Promotional food, snacks, and chocolates include fruit baskets, cookies, pastries, boxes of chocolates, and cakes. Include a thoughtful card and personalize the promotional basket for the client or customer you send it to.

5. Pens, Pencils, and Highlighters

Some of the everyday things people grab from event tables and businesses are pens, pencils, and highlighters. These are popular items and very affordable when looking for branded promotional items to give away. 

6. LED Flashlights

LED flashlights can be full-sized flashlights or as small as keychains and are popular giveaways at events. Use branded LED lights as prizes to winners who stop by your booth during a promotional event. 

7. Reusable Water Bottles

Today, everyone has a reusable water bottle they use to go to the gym, go walking, or have with them when out of the house. In addition, branded reusable water bottles are perfect giveaways at events and can be spruced up with built-in diffusers, straws, etc. 

Whether you are looking for some promotional items to send out to clients, use as giveaways, or hand out at an upcoming promotional event, there are many to choose from that people love.

Selecting the best promotional item to hand out ensures people who receive it will keep it in their homes or pass it along to someone else who may be able to use it all while keeping your brand top of mind.

Make a Statement with Flyers: 5 Things You Might Not Know About Effective Design

  Flyers have been around for decades, but they’re anything but old news. In fact, when done well, they can be one of the most cost-effective and attention-grabbing tools in your marketing mix. The trick? Knowing what most people miss. Here are five flyer design strategies that often go overlooked—and how you can use them to your advantage. 1. Headlines Don’t Have to Explain—They Have to Stop People Your headline isn’t a label. It’s a hook. A lot of flyers start with something safe: “Annual Clearance Sale” or “Join Us for Our Spring Open House.” That’s fine—but it’s also forgettable. If you want someone to actually read your flyer, the headline has to stop them in their tracks. Some options to consider: Ask a question: “Tired of Overpaying for Car Repairs?” Use urgency: “This Weekend Only. No Extensions.” Go bold: “You Bring the Crowd. We’ll Bring the Fireworks.” You can always explain more in the subhead. But the headline’s job is to earn that second glance. 2. White Spa...

Showcase Your Brand with Unique Printing Techniques That Reflect Your Style

  Your print materials don’t just share information—they express who you are. Whether you’re designing brochures, business cards, or product packaging, the finishing choices you make can help your brand stand out in ways that are memorable, tactile, and entirely you. But not every technique fits every brand. What feels premium to one customer might feel over-the-top to another.

The Bold and Energetic Brand You’re not trying to blend in—you want to get noticed. For brands with a high-energy identity—think entertainment, retail, hospitality, events—the goal is to attract attention fast. That doesn’t mean going over the top. It means choosing finishes that emphasize movement, light, or contrast. Examples to consider: Spot UV that highlights just one element (like a logo or product image) against a matte background Neon inks for a punch of color that sta...

Patriotic Designs for Memorial Day: H.O.N.O.R. in Print

Memorial Day is a time for reflection—a chance to express gratitude, remember those who served, and unite communities around a shared sense of purpose. While print can’t encapsulate the weight of sacrifice, it plays a quiet and important role in how we honor it. Here’s how thoughtful design helped this year’s Memorial Day messages resonate, using a format that reflects the heart of the holiday itself. H — Hold Space for Stillness Not every flyer needs to be loud to be effective. In fact, the best Memorial Day designs created room for the message to breathe. Whether it was ample white space or a single symbolic image—a folded flag, a solitary silhouette, a poppy in bloom—this restraint helped invite reflection. Design takeaway: When designing for remembrance, let stillness speak. Skip the clutter. Choose fewer elements with more weight. O — Opt for Meaningful Color Red, white, and blue are foundational to patriotic design—but not every campaign needs to use them at full saturat...
