When choosing promotional USB flash drives, consider memory size and style. Determine if they fit your business and compare pricing from multiple vendors. Get physical samples and consider the supplier’s reputation.
Promotional USB flash drives are a popular giveaway item in both the public and private sectors. Choosing the right one for your business requires you to consider factors such as memory size and style. You’ll also need to review the pricing of multiple versions against your budget.
Before you start comparing options, you should decide how well promotional USB flash drives fit your business. While these items have undeniable appeal, they might not be the best fit for you if your business is an auto repair shop or hair salon. In these cases, you might want to choose an item that will remind the user of your business every time they see it – even if they don’t read your name – like a tire pressure gauge or a unique hairbrush.
Once you’ve determined that promotional USB flash drives are the way to go, review various vendors’ websites or catalogs to get an idea of the options available. One decision you will need to make is memory size. Flash drives, which may also be called jump drives, memory sticks, memory cards or pen drives, are usually available in defined memory sizes including 128MB, 256MB, 512MB, 1GB, 2GB, 4GB and 8GB. The less memory the unit has, the lower the price.
Another important consideration is style. Although the internal components of each unit are virtually the same, promotional USB flash drives are offered in a wide variety of external designs. They can open up; have removable covers; or hang from key chains, lanyards or carabiners. They can also be made of plastic, metal or wood. The units also come in a wide variety of shapes, and some can be placed in a custom molded body that looks like just about anything from a heart to a robot and your company logo.
As you look at styles, pay attention to how each one is customized. Custom molded promotional USB flash drives can be made in the shape of your logo, mascot or other style of your choice. Plastic bodies are usually printed, while wood and metal bodies can be printed or engraved. In any of these cases, you may be limited in the number of colors and complexity of the design.
Experts always recommend getting price quotes from at least three vendors to ensure you’re getting the best deal. Also consider facts such as the supplier’s credit standing, delivery time, return policy, and reputation. Whenever possible, ask for physical samples of your top picks, at least the flash drive bodies, so you can see exactly what you’re getting.
