Think Promo Radios for a Truly Original Handout at Your Next Affair
One of the most interesting things that you can give away at a convention or promotional event is a personalized promo radio advertising your company logo. Given the choice, people will use a free radio as often as they might their personal mp3 player. This is particularly true when a person is exercising or traveling in such a way that an iPod or similar player is not available or practical.
Almost any business can hand out a promo radio. It's an immediately recognizable and likeable gift. Perhaps the most logical companies to suggest handing out radios are radio stations. With your call letters or station name, such as "The Rock," emblazoned on the radio, the recipient never forgets where they got the radio and who gave it to them. Back in the "transistor radio" days, stations would frequently hand out transistor radios that were permanently tuned to the station in question. While it made the radio somewhat impractical, as long as the person wanted to hear that station, they were set to go.
These days, promo radios are lightweight, easy to afford and offer the fullest fidelity possible. What's more, they travel well. While you may receive the radio in one market at an out of town convention, you know you will be able to use it when you get home with your local stations.
Promo radios also make great giveaways at company parties. The technological aspect of a radio sends a message to your employees that you think enough of them to go all out on company promotions.
Grand openings are another fine example of where handing out a promo radio can truly make your day. There's a lot of potential buying power to be had simply by saying "The first 1,000 customers will receive a free promo radio." You don't even have to describe the radio. Just make sure you have more than 1,000 so that everyone gets one who wants it.
So the next time you're looking for something original to give away, think about a promo radio. They're available in many shapes, sizes and prices. You'll have plenty of styles from which to choose.
