Souvenirs offer an excellent way of creating a positive image about yourself. The people coming to attend your event will always remember the champagne bottle that was gifted by you to them. A good gift is bound to stay in the receiver’s memory for a long time. Therefore, make sure you gift something that stands out of the clutter. You don’t have to gift something extraordinary to your guests and dignitaries.
Just make sure the gift you are giving is creative enough so that it ends up holding the receiver’s attention. Take this for an example: if yours is a company manufacturing smartphones, then you can give powerbanks at the events you are hosting.
Here are some quirky things that can be given away as souvenirs:
A bottle/ can opener
You can get the logos imprinted on them. Many of the businesses dealing in soft drinks/liquor gift bottle openers to its customers, guests and dignitaries. If yours is a brand-new liquor business and you are trying to build goodwill, then you can give these bottle openers to make your presence felt in the market. Every single time your customers open a bottle using the bottle opener you gave them, they will be reminded of you. This happens to be a great way of staying in the minds of your customers.
An umbrella
This one is quite quirky, isn’t it? Not many companies give umbrellas to its customers. But that doesn’t mean that giving an umbrella is a bad idea. In fact, you will be remembered by your customers every single time they pull out that umbrella. Promotional umbrellas are quirky simply because they are not gifted by too many people. Umbrellas aren’t considered a giveaway. These are viewed as a ‘necessity’ during heavy rainfall. If the city hosting your event experiences heavy rainfall throughout the year, then you can go for umbrellas as promotional stuff. Get your company logo and name printed on it and you are good to go.
Wrist bands/ headbands with logos:
Sports and fitness companies can go ahead with this idea. Many of them are already using this technique to promote their brand. Wristbands and other similar accessories offer a subtle way to promote the brand. It’s not outwardish (exaggerated) in nature but will promote the brand every single time someone sees it on your wrist, forehead.
A pen drive/flash drive
A pen drive does make things easier for everybody. You can store important files on your flash drive as and when you need them. You don’t have to be an IT, hardware company to gift flash drives to your guests and attendees. It is a useful gift that can be given by just about anybody.
These were some examples. You can share your ideas as well.
