Common questions
What types of branded gifts and swag get used most by recipients?
Branded apparel (polos, tees, hoodies), drinkware (tumblers, water bottles), and tech accessories rank highest for retention and use. PPAI research shows promo apparel recipients keep items for an average of 15+ months.
How much should I budget per recipient?
For employee swag, 20-50 USD per person hits the sweet spot of perceived value without over-spending. Client gifts typically run 50-150 USD, with executive gifts at 150-500 USD.
Can I order without a high minimum?
Yes. We support no-minimum orders on most items so you can scale from a single welcome gift up to a 1,000-person company kit.
