Find the Best Dealer of Corporate Gifts

Wednesday September 19, 2007

Apparel, writing instruments and calendars are the three most commonly purchased corporate gifts -- boring, but practical. Actually, these item account for about 46% of all promotional spending, according to a 2005 study by Promotional Products Association International, the industry’s trade association. And while these are memorable items, event planners should incorporate more creative ideas with the types of gifts they distribute.

As an event planner who buys gifts, I think it’s helpful to understand which companies provide the best ideas for unique products at great prices. Before you buy corporate branded gifts, learn about the main suppliers of promotional items and gifts.
