A gift says a lot, whether it is for a loved one, friend or colleague. What about in business though? Does it have the same effect? How will it affect your business? How will it affect your brand? Well there are a number of options when it comes to corporate gifts and a number of unique options to allow for some wow to your company. A gift can promote your brand in a number of ways i.e. as a receiver will always remember a free and will always associate it with your brand.

Most corporate gifts will be given as a freebie or an attachment to some sort of service you are providing and corporate gifts can come in many shapes or size i.e. pens, key rings, mini clocks, radios and much more. There are whole host of companies out there that supply these promotional gifts as you may or may not know already it is a very competitive market like the FMCG industry.

This is not a bad thing as the market is very competitive you’re very likely to get a damn good deal on your products, which let’s face it if you are giving them away for free is probably a good thing. Sometimes it can be quite simple for example let’s say you’re a high street bank and you need stationary that your customers can use within the store? This is an ideal opportunity to get your brand out there again with some cheap free pens.

There are other options out there than the standard pens, stationary, key rings etc. For example have you ever considered designer glassware gifts for your customers / clients? Extravagant I know but in a lot of cases this might be an ideal gift with more oomph than the standard thing. Glassware a lot of the times provide an impression of professionalism and quality. You can also leverage the use of glassware by having them professionally engraved with your companies branding on them.

A gift of quality can always put your brand in good light but this is not a decision to be made lightly as the costs have to be justifiable. If you’re a local car mechanic this is pointless and won’t work for you but let’s say you are an up market high street Chinese restaurant in a major city then you may consider having a small glass Buddha or dragon figuring with your companies branding on it. It could be brought out with the bill to provide that wow factor for your customers encouraging more visits.

There are so many options for glassware gifts in terms of design, etching, style and colour. So much so that in one way or another you are pretty much spoilt for choice. You can even find a supplier that will create your piece to your specifications ensuring that your business looks and branding all represented in the piece.

Glassware can also make some great trophies or awards with your branding on and are a great bonus for your brand.
