First Blog

As we turn the corner from 2008 to 2009 we are excited to introduce this blog. This is something that is new to us and we are extremely excited to add it to our client communication. I (Liz) am going to take the lead on this endeavor but will be getting input from Perry on a regular basis. I will be bringing you the latest and greatest products as well as specials and other interesting tidbits that I encounter in the promotional products industry.




For this first blog I thought I would pick a couple of products that go along with my New Years resolutions. My first goal is to drop the holiday pounds I have put on in the last week or two. I ate so many cookies and chocolates over the holiday that now I definitely need to start "stepping" and this pedometer is a great way to track your steps. This item is ideal for putting your logo along with a catchy tagline such as "Setting The Pace", or "Taking Steps to a Healthier Life", or "Go the Distance". It comes in an assortment of splashy colors and is on special for $2.99 for 100-2500 pieces plus set up charges. We have tested this product and have found it to be quite accurate so let me know if you would like a sample to try out for yourself.




My next goal for 2009 is to be a little more eco-friendly. My plan is to start taking along the reuseable grocery bags instead of using the wimpy, wasteful plastic ones you receive at the store. We started to see this idea really catch on in 2008 and I think it is going to become more of the norm in 2009. We like the 13" x 10" x 15" non woven grocery tote with the bottom insert. Right now it is specially priced at $2.05 each with a minimum order of 100-1000 pieces and no set up charges! This bag is available in green, hunter & tan. Again let me know if you want to try out a sample or if you want more information and I would be happy to send it to you.




I look forward to bringing you ideas and specials every few days so please add our blog to your favorites!
