Memory sticks or flash drives have been one of the most popular promotional items of the past two or three years. When they initially hit the promo market their novelty alone propelled them to business gift stardom. Their popularity was maintained as the price dropped dramatically and the memory size increased (here at the Corporate Gifts Company we can remember getting excited selling our first 64mb flash drives - now we couldn’t give them away)!

Why are they so popular? Like all really popular promotional items, the flash drive combines real usefulness, is used by virtually everybody in the work environment, can be branded effectively with a corporate logo or promotional message, and is extremely desirable. They have become an indispensable part of modern computing and due to their popularity they have been innovated and developed.

New styles, designs, shapes; the choice is now bewildering. At the forefront of this development is the innovation of totally bespoke shapes incorporate branding and corporate colours.

Tooling and set up is surprisingly low, as are minimum quantities. Make use of our free design service and the Corporate Gifts Company will create a selection of bespoke options to help you realise the perfect solution to fit your corporate identity or promotional goals.

As hot topics go, green issues are red hot (if that’s not mixing my colour pallet too much). And this applies just as much to the promotional market as any other industry. My favourite eco-friendly buzz word is “greenwash” and refers to all those half-truths, misconceptions, and outright lies that surround the selling and marketing of so called green products.

For consumers and professional buyers alike, the whole area is a minefield, and to help us all out, environmental marketing company TerraChoice published the six sins of greenwashing. So helpful, in fact, I thought I’d share them with you all;

SIN OF THE HIDDEN TRADE-OFF : for example energy efficient electronics that contain hazardous materials.

SIN OF NO PROOF : self explanatory - buying a eco-freindly corporate gift? Ask for the proof.

SIN OF VAGUENESS : 100% natural promotional item, but naturally occurring substances can be hazardous like arsenic or formaldehyde. is

SIN OF IRRELEVANCE : marketing a promotional product as RoHS compliant when it is actually law that it is so.

SIN OF FIBBING : lots of examples but an obvious one is falsely claiming a business gift is cer tified by a recognised body.

SIN OF LESSER OF TWO EVILS : my favourite - eg organic cigarettes, a hybrid SUV, or dare I say it, an eco-friendly disposable promotional giveaway.

My (often irrelevant) opinion is that a truly eco-friendly or green corporate gift is an unattainable holy grail. Certainly true if you consider every aspect of the product and supply chain. Buy responsibly by all means, but corporate buyers should also be realistic about what’s possible and reasonable.

At the Corporate Gifts Company we’ll be delighted to offer you truthful and realistic advice on sourcing your promotional products responsibly - just call our sales team.

Thanks to TerraChoice for the Six Sins of Greenwashing.
