5 Fabulous Corporate Promotional Items Your Customers Won’t Forget
There is an incredible range of corporate promotional ideas available for corporate gifts. Long gone are the days of the celebratory watch for an employee. These days you can choose from CD holders to leather compendium to let your staff know you care.
The use of corporate promotional items can give your business long lasting positive results for your customers and future sales prospects. Select from the usual pens and key-rings or look for something fabulous that will stand out from the competition.
- CD holders
You would be hard pressed to find anyone that doesn’t have a collection of CDs or DVDs these days. A CD or DVD holder not only makes the perfect gift but has the added bonus of promoting your product. Your name, your logo printed on the cover tells everyone who you are.
There are a number of styles and sizes to choose from starting with a standard zip up ten CD portable carrier.
Document holders
Trade displays are a great place to promote your business and by having document holders personalised with your logo you also have something for the customer to put your brochures, flyers and price lists.
Document bags are large enough to hold pens, pencil cases and writing pads all of which can be branded ready for your future sales prospects to carry home with them.
Computer bags
Maybe you are planning a seminar or workshop and want to give something special to the participants. A laptop or notebook bag can be the perfect accompaniment to other items or gifts.
Perhaps a calculator, USB memory stick or CD holder can all be part of the total package to be included in the bag. This is something you might want to consider as a special package or as part of a promotion for a prize in a raffle or skills competition. With your logo on each piece this a great way to remind your customers.
Sports and travel bags
Perhaps you are in the sporting or travel industry. Bags with logos mean exposure. What a perfect way to get your message out there.
Sports and travel bags are also a useful gift as part of an employee recognition and rewards program no matter what industry you are in.
Compendiums
Even with the move in technology toward most things being computerised, leather compendiums for the traveller are still a fabulous gift. Team this with a writing pad and top of the range pen for your special customer.
There are some top quality leather and microfiber products available that customers will cherish for years to come.
How To Design A Team Building & Training Workshop For Corporate Clients, Consultancy?
I need to design and develop a 4-day, 12 hr/day management seminar plus workshop for mid-level corporate executives. I’m from the HR dept (recently promoted), and while I’m good at communications — i.e., I can deliver the message effectively — I have a hard time designing training modules that will make the job easier and effective. Would appreciate it if you could provide resources and links to help design, develop and conduct workshops effectively. I’ll be happy if these ideas could apply to private consultancy practice as well.
Executive leadership seminars are a two-point agenda: (a) to bring in management participants, and (b) to convert those participants into paying clients (or effective mployees). The first part is a sales and marketing function; it’s the second where the HR comes in to take up the cudgels for his/her company.
The best way to design and develop a workshop or seminar is to start with modules that have already been developed. If you’re looking to conduct a seminar / workshop on say Corporate Culture and Ethics, the worst you can do is start from scratch. Never do that. You’ll just waste precious time. What you should do is to look out for someone within your company or elsewhere who has already developed a similar module and then, customize it to your requirements.
By customize, I don’t been copy or steal from it. I mean, look for ideas and inspiration from a work that’s already there on paper. Look at how that person visualized his workshop and conceptualized the ideas related to it. What were the specific things he implemented, and in what order? What were his unique experiences, priorities and constraints? What were the problems, roadblocks and overlooked factors that he later realized and rectified. Also, did he have a last-minute change of mind, change of design, change of team even — and what was the time frame within which he got the workshop designed, developed and ready for corporate consumption?
There’s nothing like third-party experience to gain a first hand knowledge of workshop design. Presentation skills workshops, business writing workshops, sales presentation training, coaching workshops and corporate team building activities all become successful (and effective) only through idea brainstorms and smart customization.
