Best Selling Business Gifts - May 2009
With the summer well underway, and still no sign of an end to the global economic problems, the pattern for the year looks clear - customers want value, value and even more value. Notice that we say value, and not price. Because as canny customers are well aware, price and value are not always interchangeable. Lower priced goods usually mean lower quality goods, and when you are dealing with corporate gifts, promotional items or employee awards, quality should not be sacrificed. Of course, in times like these most companies do not want to be seen to be extravagant or wasteful with their gifts or awards, but when budgets are cut too far and the quality of the product goes down, then hard-earned goodwill and brand reputation can suffer. One of the real benefits of branded corporate gifts or merchandise is that they keep your company or brand name in front of the recipients for months or years. Every time they use your branded gifts, they see your name or logo. But if the quality of the product is not good enough, the recipient will not use it and the long term branding benefits are lost. So it is no surprise to us to see that our quality silver plated business gifts continue to attract attention and sales from buyers and marketers that appreciate what 'value' actually is. What we have seen, though, is a move to even more utilitarian items. During May 2009 we found that keyrings, pens, business card cases and photo frames were particularly popular, as all these items have the potential for long-term brand benefits.
