The Best Promo Items for Breast Cancer Awareness Month

September 24, 2024

Are you looking to show customers that your business supports women’s health? Do you work in the healthcare industry yourself? Or, are you just committed to proliferating more pink out into the world, all while championing a good cause? As October draws closer, consider promo items for Breast Cancer Awareness Month. From pens, to bags, to the classic ribbon, we offer dozens of unique products that would be excellent for your upcoming breast cancer awareness campaign. Check out our favorites below!

A great place to start is workplace utility – items that professionals in any field will really appreciate. These giveaways are excellent to bring to conventions or simply distribute amongst your own staff. The Ribbon Grip Pen and Uni-Ball 207 Pink Ribbon Pen are great choices for writing, and the particularly organized will favor the Pink Ribbon Notebook. If you’re in a hurry, our Pink BCA Lanyards are available with 3-day rush service. Through our business, you can have these adorned with your very own brand!

Next, it’s been shown that the most memorable promotional items are, logically, those with long-term use. People want things they’ll actually use, and the longer they’re used, the more eyes lay on your brand. So, why not offer something that can last nearly forever? Our BCA Fight Believe Hope Survive Mugs and BCA Ribbon Steel Twist Water Bottles are big hits on our store. Or, consider Pink Awareness Ribbon Bag Clips and Jumbo Size Magnetic Memo Clips – hand one out to a customer and it’ll live in their kitchen until the end of time. We offer BCA Tote Bags at various sizes, fit to regularly showing them off at the grocery store (some that even have side pockets). October comes and goes, while these products could potentially see daily use for years and years.

Thank you for reading. If any of these awareness items caught your eye, now would be the time to order!

Back to School ‘24 – The Best Items for School Spirit

July 23, 2024

It’s that time of year again, folks! It won’t be long before school is back in session. If you’re in the market for some goodies to facilitate that Back to School spirit in your building or district, or even just thinking of what to get, we at Snap have you covered. This isn’t our first rodeo, and we’d like to highlight our favorite school spirit promo items for your benefit and possible amusement. Just picture these with your school’s mascot, slogan, or iconography and imagine how cool it would be to have them.

For Spirit

  • These Drawstring Sports Bags are a classic, and good to hand out at any kind of school trip or rally. Lanyards also come in handy at all kinds of events.
  • These cotton Athletic Crew Socks are a big hit, and quirky socks are just the right mix of unique and hidden for lots of kids to really dig them.
  • So many schools loan out devices these days, and that’s a great place for Decal Stickers. We can make these in almost any shape, so they’re perfect for your school’s mascot.
  • For kids who have attention issues or are just plain stressed, we have sensory items that can help without disrupting the classroom. Check out these Popper Stress Balls and Push Pop Keychains for our top picks in the category.
  • Nowadays, it seems now like everyone and their mother has their own 40 oz. Stainless Steel Tumbler, if not more than one. Help your student body stay hydrated and give something to the collectors out there.

For Athletics

  • This Clear Crossbody Bag is an excellent choice at any large-scale sporting event. People need something to keep their stuff together when they’re walking around the field and getting food.
  • When we think of high school athletic events, the first items to come to mind are always the Megaphone and the Foam Finger. Hey, they’re classics for a reason. It just feels good to hold up that big finger or scream into a cone whenever your guy does a big kick on the ball real well.
  • For those long evenings camping in the student section, it’s always nice to have your own Stadium Cushion Seat. They’re especially handy at away games when the home team puts your side on their oldest, coldest bleachers.
  • At any school, team apparel is a must. We offer screen-printing and embroidery on all kinds of clothing items, including t-shirts, wind jackets, and hoodies. Parents love this kind of thing.

For Our Teachers

  • Everybody needs a good pen, but perhaps teachers most of all. Your faculty would doubtlessly appreciate the G2 Ballpoint Gel Pen or Javalina Metallic Comfort Sylus, provided they don’t vanish from the classroom in the first week.
  • For the educator keeping everything straight throughout the day, reminders are always helpful. Either the Custom Post-It Notes or Jotter with Sticky Notes and Flags are excellent picks.
  • Let’s keep going with the practical! Grocery Tote Bags are useful for all kinds of jobs, and you don’t even have to use them for groceries. Wow!
  • This may come as a surprise, but historically a big hit for use has been these Stain Remover Pens. Obviously they’re great for personal use, but also in the classroom; let’s not pretend teenagers don’t make messes.

There you have it! We hope you’ll consider Snap Promotions for any future scholastic paraphernalia. Remember, if you want to welcome students back with all this cool stuff, you’ll have to order soon!

TikTok’s New Favorite Pen

May 16, 2024

If you’re reading this blog post, you probably know how to write. Maybe you even do it with some regularity. You’re a “writer,” one could say. And there comes a point in the lives of most writers when they chance upon an exceptionally good pen. One that glides across the page like ice. One that does exactly what they want it to do. After a revelation like that, they hold on to that pen until it’s bone dry. They may, for the first time in their life, take notice of the actual brand. They may ask “Where can I get more?” It’s a tale as old as time.

This is precisely what happened to Sam Hart, viral TikTok user and calligraphy aficionado. On April 30th, she uploaded a TikTok (@thesam_show) singing the praises of a particularly smooth promo pen she received from her new apartment building. Coincidentally, her workplace assigned her to a merchandise campaign for their brand, and she pitched her new favorite writing instrument. Naturally, they were a big hit. “I am the most popular person in the office because I am the one who procured these pens,” Sam proclaims proudly. “I’m a hero, in fact.”

The TikTok blew up over the next few days, now sitting at 1.5 million likes and 8500 comments . Like the hero she is, Sam later posted a follow-up with the product name – the BIC Intensity Clic Gel Pen, or ICLGEL – and ended it with a writing demonstration. 

The pen is exclusively supplied by Koozie Group and only available in bulk quantities as a promotional item. Luckily, that happens to be our specialty. Here you’ll find the pen in question, available in a wide range of colors with your brand’s logo printed on them. Of all the promo products out there, there aren’t many that inspire as much passion as a good pen, and the ICLGEL pen is among the best.

Get Your Pride Promo Items Now!

April 24, 2024

Pride month is right around the corner, and now is the best time to think of ways to incorporate LGBT support and awareness in your branding. If you want your business involved in fundraisers or rallies, or are simply looking to show support for a good cause, you’ll want to order those items soon! Production on custom promo items takes time, so we at Snap Promotions recommend planning these orders well in advance. That way, you’ll have them by the time they’re most effective and relevant.

Speaking of promo items, Snap offers several high-quality pride and rainbow-themed products that are perfect for any Pride Month event or promo campaign. A popular choice is the LGBTQ+ 4″x6″ Pride Flag, which comes with a 12″ wooden pole sporting your brand’s custom design. It’s a particularly good option for rallies or parades! For something more understated, these Pride Buttons are a simple, affordable option. They’re the kind of buttons that stay fastened to backpacks and totes for years, which is pretty good mileage for a promotional item. Speaking of bags, check out our Progress Pride Laminated Fashion Tote Bag for a handy option for any pride event.

Or, might I interest you in apparel of the headgear variety? Consider these Rainbow Bucket Hats, which are reversible, breathable, and available in various pride-themed color schemes. We also offer rainbow-colored Trucker Caps, with a mesh back and stylish rainbow flat-billed visor. While flags and such are excellent for parades and other pride events, apparel like these are more likely to be worn year-round.

My personal favorite in our store is the Rainbow Socks with Full Pride Flag, one of our best-selling Cotton Crew socks. They’re fully custom-knit socks that come in a variety of lengths and colorful styles, while coming with a “Walk the Pride” header card on the packaging. Lots of people love funky, colorful socks, and these scratch that itch.

As I’d be remiss to mention, we have far more rainbow and pride-related items for sale on our online shop! Wristbands, phone wallets, lapel pins, keychains – if you can think of a promotional product, there’s a good chance we have a rainbow variant perfect for your needs. Remember, you’ll want to order them soon!
