6 Out-of-the-Box Promo Products Your Clients Will Love
Promotional products are essential targeted campaign tools for high-value clients, as every marketing professional knows. And there lies a potential problem: when competing with other brands for the attention of valued clients, how do you stand out from the crowd?
One solution is to offer out-of-the-box promo products. Most clients expect reusable water bottles, pens, calendars, and other popular promotional items. Indeed, they probably own several of each gift from competing companies. Unusual, unexpected promotional items catch a client’s attention—as long as the gift in question is of high quality and addresses a need in the client’s life.
With that in mind, here are six out-of-the-box promotional gifts for your next marketing campaign.
Sound Machines
A good night’s sleep makes an enormous difference in quality of life, but people often getting to sleep difficult. The US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention estimates up to a third of adults in the United States do not get enough sleep every night.
Make your client’s night better with a white noise sound machine like the R&R Sound Machine. With 24 sounds to select from, this custom sound machine can lull you to sleep or you can use it in an office environment to mask conversation and increase privacy. The R&R sound machine has a sleek bamboo exterior that appeals to sustainability-minded clients.
The Sound Machine With Qi 15W Wireless Charger plays 26 different soothing sounds to relax you after a long day. This compact little sound machine also charges your phone as you sleep, with three different charging modes for iPhones and Samsung phones.
Bluetooth Speakers
Add music to your clients' lives with compact, portable Bluetooth speakers. The JBL Boombox 3 Portable Bluetooth Speaker offers clients 24 hours of playtime in a water-resistant, dust-proof fabric casing. Perfect for tailgate parties and trips to the beach, the JBL Boombox 3 offers deep bass and low-distortion for high-quality sound reproduction.
The Boxanne Bluetooth Speaker uses a looping strap to attach to bikes, backpacks, and bags and has a Bluetooth range of 33 feet. On-speaker connections and a built-in microphone allow you to take calls.
If your client lives the road warrior lifestyle, they will appreciate the Shockwave Bluetooth Speaker and Power Bank. Capable of providing an impressive 60 hours of audio playtime, this compact Bluetooth speaker includes a 5200mAh charger for phones, tablets, and other electronic devices.
Out-of-the-Box Keychains
Okay, we know what you're thinking—custom keychains are hardly unusual promotional gifts. A simple keychain may not be the most innovative item, but add some extra features and you have a memorable promotional gift your clients will take with them everywhere.
Never lose your keys again with the Chipolo ONE Spot Bluetooth Item Finder. Add the Chipolo ONE spot to the Apple Find My App, and hundreds of millions of Find My users will help you locate your missing keys. The Chopolo ONE can play a loud noise when your keys are hidden nearby or send you a notification if you leave your keys behind.
The Hang On Your Pocket Keychain/Bottle Opener easily opens bottles and flip-top cans, making it an excellent custom keychain for campers, hikers, and tailgate party devotees.
The Snowflake Multi Tool packs plenty of utility into its compact 2 1⁄5-inch body. Laser engrave your logo in the center of the keychain. Give your clients access to over 17 different tools, including a slotted screwdriver, box cutter, rope cutter, bottle opener, Phillips screwdriver, multiple wrenches, and Hex wrenches.
Unique Golf Kits
A custom golf kit makes a thoughtful gift for clients who hit the links every chance they get, but most golf kits look the same: a plastic tube with three balls and a few tees. Mix things up with the Titleist® Pro V1® Tin. Inside this smart, black and brushed aluminum tin, your client will find three Pro V1®/Pro V1x® golf balls, a sharpie, a ball marker, and five tees.
The Golf Buddy is a useful little golf kit you can include in client swag bags or as a trade show giveaway. The Golf Buddy contains 12 golf tees and three golf markers on a beaded chain.
The Urban Shoe Bag Golf Kit provides clients with a stylish golf shoe bag. The bag has a 15 x 18-inch golf towel with grommet and hook, four tees, a divot repair tool, and a golf ball marker. You can add an optional golf ball to every kit.
Personalized Popsockets
Popsockets lend themselves to branding. They solve a common problem—how to hold a phone comfortably—and have a broad top easily customized with brand names and logos. Popsockets often show up in swag bags, with some models offering additional features, like the ones below:
- The PopSockets® Pop Wallet Plus Lite
