Plan Ahead: Branded Promotional Gifts for January

So we're back to real life with a bump, picking up where we left off with our work life and looking to the marketing future thinking what would be ideal branded promotional gifts for January?

If you think about what January traditionally means: New Year's resolutions, fresh start, renewed plans for life and such. With some well chosen giveaways you can tap into the current January trends. By doing so you can prove you're up to date on latest thinking, have your customers best interests at heart all while getting promotional items out there that will be used, appreciated and visual.

What would be some ideas for January giveaways that can best sum up the time and attitude of the year but also give your business brand a boost and keep the longevity of usage? We've chosen some of our favourite January themed promotional items and also some of the newest arrivals to our product range. With the perceived value, usefulness and 'cool' factor these will serve your marketing plans well! 

 

Knitted Scarves
Product Code: 196290

It kinda goes without saying that our UK winter brings it all so anything that is weather related will do well with your clientele. Keep them sung and warm with this traditionally jacquard knitted with your design of choice in up to 4 colours, complete with tassel fringes. 

 

Moleskine 12 Month XL Weekly Diaries
Product Code: 196288

Even with all the tech that's going around, replacing the paper and pen will never completely happen. A diary has always been and always will be a useful business item. Go for a quality brand like this Moleskine 12 Month XL Weekly Diaries dated January to December, featuring the days of the week and you'll get a whole year's worth of brand awareness included!

 

RFID Passport Wallets
Product Code: 196119

The advancements in technology also bring their own issues. These wallets, manufactured from quality soft feel PU, come complete with shield lined protection against ID theft and card fraud. These personalised Passport Holders with RFID allow you to store your debit and credit cards in the slots safely. Something your clients may not be aware of but will be thankful to have.

Some food for thought for the year ahead in your marketing and branded promotional gifts budget.
