At the end of the day, promotional products are really all about getting a specific brand out in front of the right people to grow awareness and increase sales. Your customers want to invest in promotional products that will not only represent their brand but represent their brand for as long as possible. If you want to get strategic, there are a couple easy questions you can use to decide which promotional products to pitch to your customers:
A. How often will people see the product?
B. How long will people keep the product?
Customers will be excited when you tell them that there are promotional products that last a long time and add value to their client relationships. One great place for promotional products is on a person’s desk. Desktop items offer a perfect mix of style and make a lasting impression. Check out five examples below.
1. Bamboo Desk Organizer with Phone Holder

Organizers are an office staple. This one doubles as a pen/pencil holder and phone stand. The bamboo material is both eco-friendly and long-lasting. The logo on the front keeps a brand top of mind as long as the stand remains visible.
2. Leather Pen Cup

Where do your customers want their clients placing their promotional pens? In a plastic cup? No thank you! Pens, scissors, pencils, and highlighters are the tools of a many a person’s trade. Better to represent them in a classy, branded alternative. If your customers are not into leather, look for something in plaid cotton or waxed canvas.
3. Power Deck Wireless Charger with Dual USB Ports

Is there anything more necessary than a phone charger? The easier to access, the better. Leaving this on the top of a desk guarantees an easy recharge by simply setting the phone down. Imagine the busy executive seeing your brand every time they pick up their phone. That’s how you become top of mind without breaking a sweat.
4. Associate Padfolio

The classics are classic for a reason. This padfolio is a quick way to dress up a notepad and carry flyers and business cards to a meeting. The brand is visible to both the user and other meeting attendees, providing double the bang for your buck.
5. Something Personal

Whether we’re talking about employee incentives or corporate gifts, your customers are looking for something personal. Do a little research about their company and find a promotional product that matches their field. If your customer is an architect, for instance, you might pitch a promo gift that features a famous monument adjacent to their logo.
