It’s 2018 and promotional products are everywhere you look! So, how do you stand out in the crowd? In celebration of National Small Business Week, here are our top three tips on marketing your business with the right custom products:

Tip #1: Upgrade the classic promotional t-shirt

T-shirts will always be heavy hitters! In a recent survey, We found that more than 30% of those polled said the #1 swag item they’d like to receive is a t-shirt. Upgrade from the basic promotional t-shirt by choosing a tee with soft heathered fabrics (think of a vintage styled, comfortable tri-blend) or trendy pockets. Printing your logo with metallic or glow-in-the-dark ink is another way to make your company stand out and get people talking.
