Promotional Giveaways?

SuperBrat — Wed, 28 May 2008 16:08:31 GMT

The company I work for seem to spend a ton of money on promotional items, and while they generate a lot of interest at events, I am looking for fresh ideas to brand.

Has anyone out there got any good ones that do not include the usual stationery gimmicks, is supplied through a sustainable source/Fair Trade without breaking the bank and generates an equally good response at events?

Marketing Queen — Tue, 21 Nov 2006 11:29:47 GMT

I've received my final bill from an event management company. It's well above the original estimate. Has anyone had a similar experience and what did you do? I don't know whether or not to just pay it.
