A Marketing Item that Is Just So Darn Tasty

Who doesn’t love popcorn? I can’t think of anyone! I could be sitting in a movie theater, having just indulged in a humongous dinner out on the town, and one whiff of the popcorn being consumed by some stranger sitting across the aisle, will have me running to the nearest refreshment stand for a huge tub of the fluffy kernels. And yes, you’d better add butter and salt to my batch. Or I might be waltzing down the boardwalk in some seashore resort town in July and I can smell the sweet and salty mingle of caramel popcorn from a mile away. Yum! Since popcorn is such a fun and crunchy treat that just tastes of Americana, I am pointing you to a great idea for your clients: the Gimmees’ 1 Gallon Tin with Caramel Popcorn. It doesn’t matter what business you are in – your clients and customers will love this promo item. It’s a great surprise for the holidays in December or at any other time of the year. We’ll add your logo or corporate name to the tin. You just sit back and look like a million bucks while your clients snack away.

Get a Grip!

You would think that it would take a great deal of effort for someone or something to amaze me. But I still am intrigued and impressed by things that make my life easier, and some of those things come in compact packages. Here’s a perfect example: the grip document stand. I like that I can prop up a recipe while I’m baking (how much vanilla does the batch of cookies need?), leave a note for my husband (dinner is in the fridge, honey), or stick a reminder in my bathroom (wash your hands AFTER you flush!). Of course, the grip document stand also is great for the office, whether at home or at your place of business. Once again, this is a promo product that not only adds convenience in just a small space, but is inexpensive and can be easily imprinted with your logo, Web address, or corporate brand. If you plan on leaving me a message, make sure you use this little stand to prop up your note, because I might not see it otherwise. My kitchen table is buried in newspapers, junk mail, the kids’ homework, and every other paper known to man, but I digress…

Santa, You Stress Me Out!

I love the winter holidays. Cookies, snow, ho-ho-hoing, decorations galore, Christmas carols, presents under the tree… Well, you get the idea. I simply love the feeling of a warm house filled with laughter and the amazing smells from the oven that come with those last couple of weeks in December. It’s happiness and magic and childhood all wrapped into one. Except for one really important thing. Sometimes the cookies burn. Sometimes the fully decorated tree tips over. Sometimes the adults argue. The merry ho-ho-ho that we imagine for the holidays isn’t always quite so joyous. And that equates to one thing – none of us is perfect. The moment you try and make your holidays perfect is when things start to go awry. Which is why the Santa Stress-Ease just makes me chuckle and is a lifesaver. He’s adorable and jolly, yet the instant someone ticks you off, you can squeeze him and take out all of your aggression, which is a much better idea than whacking one of your guests with the platter that held the turkey! I’m giving you a heads up on this great promo item today so that you can order one now before the imperfect holiday season arrives.

Leaving My Mark

I like the simple things in life. I don’t need a night on the town at a fancy restaurant dressed in heels with a Coach purse in hand. Instead, I’m happy to order in a pizza and sit with my husband and kids in front of the fireplace for a cozy evening indoors. We like to gather together in the family room and read quietly, too. I encourage everyone to read, because when kids see adults engrossed in books, they are more inclined to pick up one, too. But you can’t enjoy a good read when you keep losing your page, so I recommend a stylish and sophisticated Alicia Klein bookmark. Now, every time you pick up your book, where you left off is nicely marked. These bookmarks make a lovely gift for children and students of all ages, and those adults who simply love to read. Slip a nice bookmark into a new book and give it to a child. You’ll be opening new worlds to a youngster through the gift of reading.
