The Top Ten Promotional Products

22 Dec 2009

It's that time of year again when you sit down with your advertising budget and decide what promotional items to order for the New Year. The best place to start is always with the most popular products available on the market. Here is a quick top 10 list to give you an idea of what the hottest promotional products are expected to be in 2010:

·        Pens- No matter how many times you order these things, it never gets old.  The core of the promotional product industry is the millions of brightly colored customized pens that are stockpiled in warehouses across the world.  Business owners have been purchasing promotional pens for decades as a source of cheap advertisement.  You just can't go wrong with this one!


·        Mugs-Yep!  Another promotional product that has been around since the age of the dinosaurs.  You aren't going to knock this one off the top ten list anytime soon.


·        Hats- You or a member of your family has at one time in their lives worn one of those cheesy promotional caps with the mesh in the back.  There is some weird attraction to these hats after you reach the age of 50 and most business owners cash in on this opportunity  year after year to fuel the popularity of this product


·        Bottle openers- Openers come in so many sizes and shapes now a days that they have rocketed into the top ten as a favorite promotional product.  You can't beat the price on these things and it's common practice to just toss this in the silverware drawer whether you plan to use it or not.


·        Stress Balls-These are just a necessity for most of the high strung corporate blokes sitting up in their big corner offices.  Stress balls were one of the greatest inventions of our time and have been in the top 10 list since their debut.  This is a must have!


·        Thermo Mugs- These mugs have grown in popularity so much over the past few years that it's impossible to not order at least a case of these things for the guys at the office.  Most business persons will forget where they left their child before they forget where they left their thermo mug.  Take a look around downtown around 7am in the morning and count how many of these puppies you can see. Clearly a winner.


·        Key chains- Simple and affordable.  These are commonly used as giveaway gifts, but due to the mass quantities ordered every year, the have a place in the Top 10.


·        T-shirts- Another no brainer on this one.  T-shirts are used to promote everything from an opening of a restaurant to the winner of the body shot contest at the local bar.  T-shirt orders have fluctuated over the past years as economic times have went down, but the always seem to make their way back up the top 10 list.


·        Polo Shirts- These basically go hand in hand with T shirt sales as far as popularity is concerned.  Those of you that have bought a new car or attended a business seminar know that you will be walking away with a polo shirt!  These are at the top of the list for medium to corporate size businesses.


There it is....the hot list for 2010.  Pay close attention to this prediction as you go about your business in 2010 and really take the time to notice how many of the above promotional products are lurking around!
