You Can Nail It!

A recent trip to the doctor's office gave me an idea for this blog post. When leaving my appointment, I spotted a table set up with various takeaway items for patients and included among the products were nail files in sleeves. All of the items on the table were pink to remind women to get regular mammograms for breast cancer. The nail file is now in my purse and I realize that every single time I reach for it, I'll be reminded of the importance of mammograms and I'll recall where I picked it up. Hmmm. This simple nail file becomes a very powerful marketing tool for whatever message you wish to promote -- breast cancer awareness, diabetes, or any health topic, really. But it also is an easy item to hand out at tradeshows and events because it's thin and compact. It also comes in various colors, perfect for tailoring to your message or corporate colors. Oh, and the nail file isn't just for disease prevention. Health and wellness spas, salons, gyms and fitness centers, groceries, pharmacies, and grand opening events all could find great value in this nail file. Imagine the possibilities! They are endless.

A Tote for Anyone, for Anything

There's always a need for a quality tote bag and the 100% Recycled PET Lake Convention Tote fits the bill. Here's a great item for that workshop/convention/tradeshow/event you'll be holding/setting up a booth at/participating in. At the event, the tote, which will be given to visitors, holds various materials as they walk around. Afterwards, the tote's value continues as it will be used by every recipient for different things, marketing your business. Think of the mom at the soccer game bringing drinks for the team, the family at the beach with sunscreen and magazines, the gentleman toting along crossword puzzles, a book, and his iPad while traveling overseas. It sounds like this tote bag really gets around! And if you needed a reason why this is a nice giveaway, here's one more. This bag is made from 100% post-consumer recycled material. Oh, and one more thing. It holds up to 40 pounds. Not a bad gift! This is something you'll feel good about giving and your recipients will feel great about getting. Now, get busy and order this tote. Call Gimmees. It's the best item around!

If It Looks Like a Duck and Sounds Like a Duck...

So many graduations. So little time. It's a time of great achievements, of milestones reached, of proud families, a few tears, and looking forward to whatever the future holds. And it's a time of ducks. Yes, that's right. I said ducks. Think about how many smiled you'll bring with the Graduate Duck. He's cute, festive, and completely demonstrates the appropriate message without saying anything. This adorable duck would be great as a decoration on cakes and tables, but would also be a thoughtful gift for the graduate of anything -- high school, college, nursing school, advanced degree programs, even workshops and conferences. Imagine your new class of 400 sales reps receiving this duck upon their completion of their two-week training? After their 3 month probationary period? It might seem that this item is for kids, but really, it's not. It's for the kid in all of us and it's a kind way to say to people, you did a great job and I'm proud of you. Here's a little something that will never let you forget what you accomplished. Give out this duck and you'll see him pop up on desks and in offices. He might even make his way into your recipient's bathroom at home. And months later, his message will still ring clear.

Don't Leave Anyone in the Dark with This Giveaway!

Springtime's weather can be volatile, but there is simply never a good time for the power to go out. Yet, at the most inopportune times, we find ourselves sitting in the dark. Enter the mini aluminum LED flashlight. This is perfect for stashing away in the glove compartment (for road emergencies), keeping in your kitchen cabinet (for when the power fails), in your purse (in case you are in a strange location and need light), and in your night table drawer (for anything that happens in the wee hours). Knowing that these beams of light are only a simple reach away is a simple protection mechanism. Listen up, all companies, organizations, and places of business: this is the giveaway item for YOU. While some products cater to a specific industry, this flashlight crosses all demographics and types of companies. It doesn't matter if you're work is in real estate, a physician's office, an insurance firm, or a sports organization. Gimmees recommends that you have this flashlight tailored with your corporate name as a giveaway at your next seminar or tradeshow. It's a marketing message that will be used for years to come and isn't that what marketing campaigns are all about?

Those Rays of Light Are Damaging and Deadly without Today's Product

While speaking with a dermatologist recently, I learned some intriguing facts. First, the best way to prevent skin aging is to you use sunscreen. Second, most of us humans apply sunscreen once and think we are good to go for the entire day, which is a fallacy. Third, the face alone needs approximately one teaspoon of sunscreen. Fourth, a shot glass-sized amount of sunscreen is needed to properly coat most bodies. So, if you're like me, you've been applying sunscreen the wrong way all these years. But with Gimmees, we have you covered. If you're a doctor, medical practice, real estate agent near the beach, travel agent, or anyone else in the travel industry, the SPF 30 Lotion 8 oz. White Pump is the perfect item for you to give to your customers, patients, and clients. This SPF lotion demonstrates that you care about your recipient's health while also marketing your name, your practice, or your business. The pump makes dispensing sunscreen easy while the large bottle lasts through the next vacation. A great gift all in one bottle and this is a gift that can save lives!

Promoting Child Safety and Your Business in One Neat Package

No parent can imagine the horror of his or her child going missing. It's too painful, frightening, and upsetting to even think about… until the unimaginable happens. Law enforcement personnel know that the first minutes are critical in finding a missing child and that as the hours go by, things become grim. But we don't want to talk about the grim today. Instead, we'll discuss one very important preventative that's a must for every Mom, Dad, and guardian to have on hand -- updated information on each child. The Deluxe Child I.D. Kit is typically given out by local authorities at demonstrations, National Night Outs, school presentations, and other events. The police, fire department, teachers, and even lifeguards (think pools and beaches) can hand these kits out to parents at events, encouraging them to keep updated, accurate information on each of their children. Each kit is a record keeper of physical description (freckles, anyone?) and offers a spot to keep updated photos while also providing an ink strip for fingerprinting. It might be upsetting to think about, but every parent needs this information on hand, whether at home or while traveling.

Don't Set Sail or Board the Plane Unless You Have This!

Attention travel agencies, hotels and resorts, tour operators, cruise lines, tourism services, and transportation services. Are you looking for something simple to promote your business and get your name and brand noticed? Consider the Whatever Bottle Travel Set. Today's travelers -- whether for business or pleasure -- know federal regulations don't allow for large bottles of liquids to be transported within carry-on bags. Not to mention, the thought of bringing bulky bottles onboard is inconvenient and messy. This travel set enables your customers, partners, and potential customers to fill each bottle with the products he/she needs. Some travelers might bring facial cleansers and shampoo while others need witch hazel and liquid hand soap. The choice is up to the recipient, but the travel set can be used over and over again. The bottles are also approved by the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) so that travelers know they are okay to use. This travel set makes it so much easier when packing and prepping for a trip. Your recipients will thank you for this gift, but really, you'll be more thankful since your message will be front and center for all to see.
