Umbrellas are consistently one of our best selling promotional products. Especially in the last few years when rainfall has been especially high (compared with 2000 - 05 where rain shortage meant all sorts of weird water saving legislations). Promotional umbrellas are very effective marketing and branding tools for several reasons. First and foremost their branding area is H.U.G.E. In fact I cant even name another product that can have a logo branded on at such a big size. This means one obvious thing of course! Your logo and your branding can be visible from a far greater distance than normal promotional items.
USB Keys and Mp3 players are always one of our best seling items. However have you ever wondered why you need to go through the process of locating the small icon to eject a flashdrive? To me I always found it a waste of time. Especially when I am running late and I simply need to unplug and switch off quickly. So I decided to do some research on why.
Basically ejecting a flashdrive tells the computer to stop writing files and reading files onto the flash memory. When you are in the middle of loading data onto a flashdrive if you simply remove it from your computer it will more than likely corrupt your file and potentially any other file within your flashdrive. The file would likely be totally corrupted and not be able to salvage. In many instances though even though you have not accesssed any files nor issued commands to access your USB key it still may be in the process of either being read or written. This is because running in the background your computer may have small
Have you noticed this year compared to the past 5 years its been really raining a lot? I can vaguely remember a long time ago that we had a national drought which caused a lot of grief for our Aussie farmers which lead to a lot of our fruit and vegetables sky rocket in price not to mention the strange erratic water restrictions placed on us. This year however its been raining all the time. It therefore comes as no surprise that Umbrellas which were once an average selling promotional product compared to others are now one of our top sellers. Umbrellas come in all sorts of shapes and sizes as well as colour. They all function the same of course being to shelter you from rain however different umbrellas will suit different occassions. The finish of the umbrella will also determine how often it is used as well. The small differences will determine if your umbrella branded with your logo
Mousepads have always been one of our top selling promotional products. Any company will benefit with having mousepads with their own custom logos within their arsenal of marketing tools. Why? Simply put mousepads have an area for branding which is simply an unbeatable size. Combined with the fact that a mousepad has to be used within arms length and you have a combination of marketing exposure unlike any other. The most important thing when using a mousepad for your promotional use though is design. You would want to ensure you have a creatively fun graphic or image to make it appeal to a user to use it everyday. Simply having your logo on a plain mouse pad with your telephone number is fine however to really make it an excellent marketing item why not place some really smart caption or perhaps a beautiful photograph. Better still come up with some original graphics and really work on the colour to make it spot on and appeal to a user. Mousepads are really one of only a few products
Promotional bags are a popular marketing tool for companies looking to increase brand awareness and promote their products or services.

This article explores the differences between promotional non-woven bags and eco non-woven bags, providing valuable insights into which option is best for your business.
I was watching TV today. Specifically 60 minutes which had a segment on Pacific Brands. I thought I use this blog and also chime into the debate. For those who missed the show or have not been keeping up to date with the news basically Pacific Brands (owner of King Gee, Bonds and other iconic Australian brands) will be closing down a production plant and moving it overseas.
Cubic Promote used to stock King Gee as part of our customised apparrell we had promotional polo shirts, t shirts and other types of corporate clothing. To cut a long story short they didnt sell. The price was slightly higher than overseas made personalized shirts and that was enough to virtually turn every single Aussie company away from them. Because of that we have not stocked King Gee at all for the past 2 years. The way the media has focused on individual stories of retrenched workers is rather biased as the key thing which struck me was this. If purchasing patterns, government tenders and private tenders
