5 Popular & Cost-Effective Promo Ideas
- Promotional T-shirts
Apparel is a high-visibility promotional item that acts as a mobile billboard. T-shirts are perfect for event giveaways, employee onboarding, appreciation gifts, or general branding with the company, school, team, or association logo.
- Promo Phone Wallets
Most of us keep our smartphones within an arm’s reach. What better way to reinforce top-of-mind recall of your brand or business than to be visible every time a text, app notification, or phone call happens? Phone wallets can adhere to the back of the phone or phone case, include kickstands to prop up the phone, surround a phone with a waterproof pouch, and have reasonable per-unit costs.
- Branded Hand Sanitizer
Staying healthy by reducing the spread of germs is the new norm. Hand sanitizers that attach or clip to a bag are perfect promo items for in-person events, schools, hospitals, and other venues that draw a crowd. You can also offer card-shaped or small pump formats, depending on your audience. The dispensers have a shorter lifespan than some other promo items, but people use them frequently.
- Branded Insulated Drink Holder (e.g., Kan-tastic)
Summertime is a perfect season to hand out insulated drink holders. Who doesn’t appreciate a cold beverage at a picnic, sporting event, outdoor concert, or backyard gathering? The unit cost makes drink holders, or koozies, affordable for smaller businesses and organizations, with the upside that they often get shared with friends and family. For clients hosting family reunions, weddings, and quinceaneras, drink holders are an excellent memento!

Promotional Pens
Not everything is digital. Writing pens and highlighters are still used in most office and professional settings, as well as sporting events, on the campaign trail, and in the classroom. They are inexpensive promo items that can stay in desks, catch-all drawers, bags, and vehicles. Because they come in a wide range of styles, you can offer pens at different price points and with options like pen sleeves or a stylus for tablets. Pens reinforce the brand every time the person needs to jot a note.
