Vitamin C Rolls: Healthy Swag Idea for Fall Events

I like to find inexpensive swag ideas for my clients that are fresh and different - not the same old stuff they're going to find when surfing other promotional product websites. I always consider it a bonus when those swag ideas are things that can be printed in full-color graphics for maximum visual impact.

Custom-logo candies, gum packs and breath mints have long been popular swag ideas for giving away at tradeshow booths and marketing events. Edible items appeal to a wide demographic and also appeal to the senses of smell and taste. Ordering popular swag items like gum, mints & candies may seem less risky than going with something a little different, but savvy marketers know the ideal swag is something people will remember (in a good way) once the event's over.

As a brand new swag item, custom-logo Vitamin C Rolls are a great pick for people looking for something different and new. Most event attendees have never seen this item given away at a booth before and will be intrigued by it. Similar to Life Savers in shape & size, each roll contains a two-week supply of 14 (250mg) tablets of tangy, chewable Vitamin C.

Long popular for fighting colds and flu, Vitamin C is something everyone can use more of during fall & winter months... and giving these custom vitamin C rolls as a swag item sends a completely different message to the recipient than gum or breath mints. It's hipper, healthier and more caring.

Priced at well under $2.00 per roll, with a low minimum order of 250 rolls, these custom Vitamin C Saver Rolls are a swag idea that will work well for all kinds of companies and events. The obvious buyers of this item would be health-related companies, but they can be used appropriately by a wide range of companies and non-profits. The ability to print them with full-color graphics also makes it easy to tie their look in with your existing marketing collateral for a polished and professional image.

This is the time of year when many businesses and non-profits thank and recognize those who have contributed to their success over the past year. This can be a challenge for companies committed to earth-friendly practices who want something nice and eco-friendly but don't want to spend a ton of money.

That's why we're proud to introduce the EcoBoard Reycled Award Plaque: the world's first award plaques made with 70% recycled content that are also 100% recyclable... they even ship in a recycled box. These are a perfect award choice for companies (and non-profits) that are committed to sustainability.

The overall size of these plaques is 8"x10"x1" and they can be done in either a portrait or landscape orientation. They have an exposed fluted edge that makes it obvious they're made with earth-friendly materials. Additionally, each plaque is printed with a recycle symbol and the words "This Plaque Made From Recycled EcoBoard" so those who see and receive them know they're earth-friendly awards. These plaques can be printed in one to four color graphics (with a full bleed) with one low setup charge. Add two (or more) lines of personalization for a small extra charge.

Priced between $8-$15 each (depending on quantity and personalization) with a minimum order of 25 plaques, these are a perfect and affordable choice for companies seeking to recognize the achievements of their employees, dealer networks, distributors, volunteers, major donors or other key stakeholders.

In uncertain economic times like these, rewarding and recognizing employee achievements is more important than ever. Study after study has shown that public recognition of a job well done is a huge motivator for employees at all levels of an organization. Even if your company is cutting back on holiday festivities, year-end bonuses or raises right now, you need to keep morale high and let people know they are valuable and appreciated. For less than $20, these plaques are a great investment in the most important part of your organization... the people who make it all happen.

E.C.O. - Ecological Clothing Options from Swag Connection

Choosing apparel from our E.C.O. line is a choice that supports the efforts to recycle, reuse and utilize more sustainable natural resources. Fabrics made from soybean protein, bamboo fiber, nano bamboo charcoal and recycled polyester are great alternatives that wear well and look great.

Here's a brief description of the earth-friendly fabrics used in the E.C.O. Collection:

RECYCLED POLYESTER: Recycled polyester fabrics feature yarns made from post-consumer products. This helps reduce the amount of waste in landfills, decreases energy consumption and conserves petroleum resources used to produce virgin polyester. Additionally, recycled polyester knits provide high-performance wicking, which absorbs and rapidly disperses moisture to the fabric surface, helping keep the wearer dry and comfortable. Recycled polyester can be made into flat fabrics used for polo shirts and outerwear, or spun into fleece used for jackets, scarves, hats and mittens.

SOYBEAN PROTEIN FIBER: Soybean protein fiber has such an incredibly soft feel that it is often referred to as 'vegetable cashmere'. It's a renewable natural resource that is sustainable, biodegradable and eco-friendly. It's durable, has a flattering drape and washes beautifully, making it a great choice for sport shirts.

NANO BAMBOO CHARCOAL POLYESTER: Nano particles in bamboo are the active ingredients that help absorb odor-causing microbes and moisture, which makes this a perfect material for sport shirts. The fabric has natural ventilation to keep the wearer dry and comfortable, as well as an elegant sheen and soft hand. It's an easy-care material made from a sustainably grown resource that comes in a nice variety of colors.

RAYON MADE FROM BAMBOO: Did you know bamboo is classified botanically as a grass, and can grow up to 36" in one day? It's the fastest growing plant on earth, and a bamboo forest releases 35% more oxygen than an equivalent size forest. Every strand of bamboo fiber boasts a luxurious soft hand, elegant sheen and durability while keeping the wearer cooler than cotton. It's an excellent choice for nice dress shirts that look crisp and wear well.

Altogether there are 25 different styles offered in the E.C.O. collection, all of which can be custom-decorated with your company logo. This is part of our ASH CITY clothing line, which is extremely popular with our corporate clients.
