Pro tip: Focus on what you can do for others first and worry about yourself second. It will make your life easier and your interactions feel more genuine and less transactional. (And yes, I’m repping company swag on vacation 🤣)

Do you actually want swag from another company? I've had some great companies that went out of their way to send me some company swag. It was really thoughtful, very kind, and I never once used the product they sent. Why? Because I didn't want to walk around carrying something for a company I decided not to work with. So it makes me ask the question if swag is worth it. I know it's a massive industry but I'm curious if any of us really want it. Is there a space where we could be spending our company dollars that would go above and beyond and provide #unreasonablehospitality? I do enjoy my BombBomb swag because I work for the company but I don't think I ever want something from outside companies. Thoughts? Do you want swag from another company? All answers are welcome 😂 #questions #questionoftheday

Here are a couple of swag-related questions: 1. What's the best swag you've ever received from a company, given out by your organization, or come across in the swag world? 2. Do you have any ideas or suggestions for what would make an unforgettable swag item?

Why do companies hand out Swag at events? The straightforward answer is to increase brand visibility and ensure lasting recall. While brochures and booklets effectively convey a company's narrative, a plethora of printed materials are gathered with the intention of perusal, but most end up discarded. Swag, on the other hand, rarely suffers the same fate. THE RIGHT SWAG! It keeps the company in prospects' minds, so when they need the service, they remember and reach out.

Here’s how timing your SWAG affects how your brand is perceived in your audience’s mind... Good Swag + Good Timing = Positive Bad Swag + Good timing = Neutral Good Swag + Bad timing = Positive Bad Swag + Bad timing = Negative Good Swag at the right time is obviously the goal. But... Good Swag is like a get out of jail free card. You can mess up the timing and it will still make a positive impact on your brand. 3 easy examples of good timing: 1. the 1st day for a new employee 2. when an employee has a baby 3. to commemorate a company milestone

I'm curious to hear from you: what's some of the coolest, most unique swag you've ever received or sent out to your team? #Swag #EmployeeEngagement #TeamBuilding

I am not going to sell you that pen! This week, a good client reached out and said, “Rob, can you quote me on these pens?” He sent me a link to a typical $2.00 pen. It was a decent pen for the price, but before sending him the quote, I gave him a quick call. Here’s how the conversation went: Me: Hey Jim (not his real name), quick question about your email for the pens. What are you using them for? Jim: It’s for an upcoming event where we’re showcasing our industry and company to high school students. We want them to visit our booth, have some fun, and learn about the cool opportunities our industry offers. Me: Jim, if you want to stand out and truly showcase your industry through your SWAG, there are much better options that will get students more excited and engaged than a pen. Let me put together some ideas and send them over. Jim: Rob, you rock! Send them over, I’m excited to see what you come up with. Me: Check your inbox in an hour. Two hours later, I received an email from Jim: “These ideas are awesome – our team loves the push pops. It’s different, engaging, and fun – exactly what our brand message is for this event!” In the world of SWAG, the right item can say so much. We live by the acronym SWAG: Strategies With A Goal. With a well-thought-out SWAG strategy, you can achieve your desired results instead of just slapping your logo on something and hoping for the best. Oh, and the results? Jim had to reorder halfway through the show due to the lineup of students at their booth. They had great conversations and inspired many kids to explore an industry they had never considered before. #SWAG #PromotionalProductsWork #SellMeThisPen #brandandadvertising
