You may think that giving out merchandise is a waste of money, but just hang on. Have a close look at your desk right now. Have you got any of the following with brand names on them?

• Pens                                                         
• Post it note pads
• Rulers                                                       
  
• Note pads
• Coasters                                                 
  
• Sweetie jars
• Mugs                                                       
  
• Magnets
  

You look at these items every day and subliminally you are remembering their company's names.

If you are out and about and you meet people who wear the same uniform everyday you associate that business with the uniform.

You may have been given a stress ball, a Frisbee, a cap, a shirt a key-ring, I bet you have kept all of these and scattered around your home are remnants of another companies marketing efforts. Imagine if that was your company name? Great exposure eh! The CEO of a well respected business and his son are out playing in the park on the weekend with your Frisbee wearing your cap, and drinking out of the thermal flask you gave him as a thank you gift last Christmas. Merchandise works - as long as you give it to the right people and spend your dollars wisely.  Don't give away expensive gifts to potential customers - give them a pen or a coaster, save the executive gifts for your good repeat customers. They keep being a repeat customer if you treat them nicely enough.

Marketing messages are passed onto potential customers in many different ways. Brand exposure is a big way of promoting your company without actually "selling" it as such.

Think about it - how often do you come across someone wearing or using an item that is branded by another company other than their own?

Caps, t shirts, stubby holders, pens, notepads, calendars, coasters, magnets - the list is endless...

All the while the user is sitting there staring at the brand name of that company constantly. It would be fair to say that the user would then be aware of the company's existence if asked.

Why not try adding promotional merchandise to your marketing plan. Be careful how much you spend and what the unit cost is per item - you can get good deals if you shop around. Don't give away expensive items to "cold" clients, save those items for existing clients as gifts or for the very "hot" leads.

Garnish can help you to develop the right merchandise for your brand and organise to have to produced and delivered out.
