At ROBYN, we know that choosing the “right” product for a promotion is what ultimately matters, and that’s not just a cost issue.

Success involves a number of factors, all contributing to what we call “perceived value” – the connection, satisfaction and excitement recipients feel when they hold that item in their hands. Still, if you can save some money in the process, all the better. And that’s where careful planning and a little flexibility can make a big difference.

Manufacturers and retailers occasionally offer discounts to move excess inventory or bump up sales. Promotional companies do, too! So don’t be afraid to ask ROBYN about specials and sale items. With literally hundreds of thousands of promotional products in the marketplace, chances are you can save money on your next promotion.

All employees need to be motivated to stay healthy, happy, and productive. What lights a fire under most of them? Branded Merchandise.

Not cash, you ask?

Participants in a study by the Incentive Marketing Association labeled cash an “unemotional” reward, noting that it’s most likely used to pay bills or stashed in a checking or savings account, taking with it the memory of why it was given in the first place. Conversely, a whopping 80% of respondents agree that branded merchandise is remembered longer than cash.

What kind of merchandise is ROBYN talking about here? It can range from brand-name luggage, watches, writing instruments, and other items typically associated with sales incentive programs and length-of-service awards to everyday promotional products like logoed wearables, pins, certificates, trophies, electronics and binders.

The key is to maintain a connection to the company. The choices are limitless. Just keep in mind that this kind of recognition becomes a basic part of your business management plan, a way to promote teamwork, productivity, and quality.

Given our society’s fondness for what’s hot vs. what’s not, it’s hard to imagine a product that’s been around 150 years could still be well received. But as everyone at ROBYN knows, this time of year there’s a huge call for calendars.   

It makes sound business sense. For starters, calendars have an impressive shelf life – 365 consecutive days! Plus, because your clients and prospects will need a new calendar every year, it’s the perfect “renewable” promotional product. (We’ve heard lots of stories from clients about how their clients expect to receive a new calendar every year… how they even call to ask for one if they think they’ve been left off the list!)

Another reason calendars are a sure thing is their diversity. At ROBYN we offer wall calendars, desk calendars, date books, magnetic and erasable calendars. You can even give a calendar with space for daily or weekly messages custom-made to your specifications or featuring detachable coupons.

What you’ll also like: Price-wise, calendars are among the most cost-effective promotional product you can use. Considering the prominent place most calendars enjoy in the home or office, you can’t beat the exposure for your investment.

The bottom line? Calendars will keep your name and ad message in front of your target audience all year long.
