Unique promotional products to highlight your brand’s vibe

By Mae Strehlow

Is your brand recognizable and easy to identify? A well-defined brand identity opens in new window helps grow your business by making it memorable. It also helps you build trust, align with your target audience and support product launches. Unique promotional products reinforce your brand identity and help you connect with your target audience. We offer giveaway ideas to assist you in showcasing your style.

Rustic

If your business has a simple, rugged and authentic vibe, get back to the basics. Casual, natural designs deliver a rustic look for your brand. An imprinted mason jar is a highly versatile giveaway. Fill it with candy, jam, flowers, candles, sand or countless other items that relate to your brand.

Nothing quite says rustic like the great outdoors, so pair a woodgrain vacuum bottle with a natural-coloured cotton tote for a giveaway for potential clients. Simple wooden coins make memorable tokens for free drinks or can be used as unique business cards.

Modern

For those with a sleek, sophisticated style, think modern and minimalist. Use straightforward messaging, clean lines and a monochromatic colour scheme.

Is a business anniversary coming up for a top client? Mark the event by giving them a modern and unique giveaway, like a luxurious, stainless-steel wine set paired with sleek tumblers. Is your company hosting an event for industry executives? Consider handing out padfolios that make a lasting impression and are useful for staying organized. As a client appreciation gift, chocolate truffles packaged in a modern, yet elegant, silver box deliver a refined look for your brand.

Urban

Integrate culture, tourism or local life into your brand for an urban appeal. Gain visibility on the street with toques or attention-grabbing travel tumblers featuring your logo.

Bring your urban style to life with a convertible duffel cooler that customers would be proud to tote around town. It makes a great thank-you gift for closing a sale. At a local farmer’s market or city festival, consider offering stylish cotton T-shirts to anyone who spends a certain amount at your store or booth.

Whimsical

If your brand is all about standing out from the crowd with an amusing or playful vibe, have fun with unique and whimsical promotional items. Monkey screen cleaners and tie-dye sunglasses make great giveaways at tradeshows or community events.

Create an unforgettable product release party by outfitting your staff with light-up hats. Or draw attention at family-friendly events by catering to future customers. Parents are sure to appreciate getting a custom shark sportpack that they can give to their kids. Tuck an event schedule or discount coupon inside for a nice surprise.

Communicate your vibe

Whether your brand is urban, modern, rustic or whimsical, unique promotional products help define your brand while connecting with your target audience.
