These custom knitted socks are high-quality items that come in all sizes and styles to fit your brand. Pick from athletic, dress, ankle, and more styles of socks. Use these socks as a stand-alone giveaway at events or as part of a gift basket for employees--the opportunities are endless for this type of branded swag.
5. Folding Sunglasses
If you regularly read my blog, you probably know that I consider custom printed sunglasses to be some of the best promotional items for events. They're great for both outdoor and indoor events, so almost any company can make use of them. Better yet, promotional sunglasses are more than just a giveaway; they're quality items that protect your eyes from the sun.
However, there's something special about these particular promotional sunglasses that sets them apart. These custom folding sunglasses fold down into a compact design made to fit easily in pockets or handbags. These state-of-the-art sunglasses with UV protection allow for branding on the arms, and, as an added bonus, come in a small branded pouch for impactful presentation and easy transportation.
6. Custom Molded Mints
Remember - picking items that are useful to consumers is key for effective swag items. Give your customers an item that they would otherwise buy themselves, like these custom molded mints that come in a traditional tin box. The tin box comes imprinted with your full color logo, but that's not the only item that's branded - the mints themselves are branded, too! Choose from a variety of custom shapes and mold your brand name or logo onto the mints themselves. Talk about taking personalization to the next level!
Give these 6 company branded swag ideas a chance. Take it from me – your marketing will benefit from unique items by setting your brand apart and delighting recipients with swag ideas that are actually useful to them. Once you do this, your brand will be one step ahead of the rest.
