In today’s world every business owner and marketer is trying to “think outside the box” and come up the latest and greatest marketing campaign. This means finding promotional products that are unique and creative, but still a perfect fit to represent your brand.
This inspired me to set out to find some unusual promotional products that would make a company really stand out. Proforma has an exceptional network of vendors that (along with offering some of today hottest items) have a few uncommon products up their sleeves that most of us probably wouldn’t think of when brainstorming for promotional products.
What I learned in this search is that you really can put your name on anything and you are only limited by your own creativity. The key to finding the perfect promotional product is staying focused on your target market, your message and your end goals. How well do you know your market and what products would they consider useful or entertaining?
Maybe something here is just a little different, a little unconventional or a just a little odd enough to make your business stand out?
Pet Bag Dispenser with Carabineer
It’s a dirty job, but somebody has to do it. Why not have them think of each time you make this nasty chore a little easier? This would be great for pet stores, animal shelters or veterinarians.
Desktop Aquarium
Bring a touch of home to the office. The desktop aquarium is not a typical promo product, but it does bring some tranquility to the workspace. And the fish really swim!
Fire Extinguisher
Would a fire extinguisher heat up your brand? Branded fire extinguishers could be great for first time homebuyers, restaurant owners, teachers or a safety awareness program.
T-shirt
The traditional promo shirt, in a not-so-traditional shape. Apparel is the number one promotional product in the industry, but that doesn’t mean it has to look so typical.
Stress Ball Toy
The stress ball toy is becoming a pretty common promotional product, but have you seen them in such unusual shapes? From toilet seats to traffic cones – you can find the best stress ball for your industry.
Toothpaste Squeeze-it
This product helps you squeeze the last bit out of the toothpaste tube. Great for dentists, healthcare programs or maybe even a recycling program discouraging waste.
