You'll Never Walk Alone... or in the Dark Again

I love products that multi-task -- one item that has numerous functions or features in the realm of a Swiss Army knife. All knives and sharp objects aside, let's talk about the Flashlight and Siren Pedometer. This is ideal for early morning or late evening walkers who take to the streets after the sun has long set or before it has had the chance to come up. Doctors and healthcare providers agree that walking is among the best forms of exercise, but not everyone has the option to take a brisk walk during an optimum time. This marketing item not only tracks steps, calories, and the distance walked, but it also lights dark pathways and gives off a loud siren should the user feel as though he or she is in danger. This item works for an array of businesses, too -- orthopedists, healthcare facilities, gyms and fitness centers, retirement communities, alarm companies, walking clubs, etc. Get the idea? Promoting good health with walking helps your clients and customers know how important they are to you. Adding on your corporate name to this pedometer reminds them of all that your company offers.

Magnetize Your Marketing Efforts

Organizations always are looking at new and innovative ways to market their brands, but marketing campaigns can be costly at times. I'd like to introduce you and your business to the magnet trend. If you've not noticed, magnets are promoting everything from colleges to sports teams to radio stations to grocery stores. A magnet is noticeable and it broadcasts your message without the need for a very pricey radio station timeslot. Magnets have been showing up on cars, refrigerators, and filing cabinets. The Magnet - Oval Shape (6x4) Outdoor Safe is a favorite of ours over here at Gimmees because it is big enough to promote a message/company name/Web site address yet not at all intrusive. It works for everything, too -- any business or organization or event can use this little magnet for maximum sales potential. Stick it in a goodie bag at a tradeshow, hand it out to new enrollees, slap it on the cars in your corporate parking lot. Now, imagine you give out 500 of these magnets. How many pairs of eyes will spot them? The number is incredible -- too many to count. Suddenly, that tiny marketing idea has promoted you to the masses with little effort on your part.

And Gimmees can help you find the right color options for you -- mix and match the sole and strap colors so that this giveaway goes hand in hand with your message.

Hiding Your Personal Items... on Your Person

Although I'm not a runner, I have plenty of runners in my life whom I admire since I wish I had it in me to lace up a pair of sneakers and set off on a 12-mile journey. On foot. While moving quickly. But I don't. Still I've attended races where I've cheered on loved ones and friends (and even many, many strangers whom I did not know) and I've wondered often where these physically fit specimens of lean muscle and very low body fat keep their valuables like money and house keys while not breaking stride. I don't need to wonder any longer because I've discovered the shoe wallet. I love this item and I know you will, too. I useful, amazing, completely necessary, and one darn great way to market your business. Not only that, but any business -- hello construction companies, dental practices, realtors, banks, restaurants, and retail shops -- can use it. It's ideal for that grand opening giveaway or as a special thank you to a long term customer. Even if your recipient is not a runner (say, like me), he or she will still get much use from this wallet when out for a walk, a hike, or while window shopping.

No Lip Service, Just Lip Protection from Us

You know you shouldn't step foot on the sand or dangle your toes poolside unless you're slathered in sunscreen, correct? You've heard all the horror stories of skin cancer, the sun's damaging rays, dreadfully painful sunburn (the latter of which I'm sure you've experienced more than once). But there's one area of the body that is at risk to sun exposure yet is often neglected or forgotten about and that's the lips. A recent study of lip cancer patients, noted by the Skin Cancer Foundation, found that 81% of patients had it on their lower lip. Now's the time for all you physicians, healthcare service organizations, hospitals, schools and daycares, insurance companies, and the like to dole out Gimmees' Easy-Twist Lip Balm. It's got sun protection (SPF 23) and has a self-adjusting applicator. Oh, and did we mention that it also markets your business prominently? It's a great giveaway for any time of the year and it's budget-friendly. It also is perfect for any organization to distribute to customers and prospects -- we've even seen law firms give this item out. You can't miss with this lip balm. It not only is a wonderful promotional item, but it just might help to save a life.
