The American economy is driven (pun-intended) by the American Truck Driver! So it makes sense to show them some love.
So what can you do? Well other than listening to the Alabama Country Classic “Roll On,” you could consider giving the Truck Drivers helping your company go with some awesome and useful gifts. Here are a couple of cool ideas that they might just love!
Coleman 1/2 Gallon Insulated Jug: This is a classic insulated jug that is perfect for the soccer game…or long miles on the road. This is extremely functional and has a high perceived value. On a long hot day, this item can help your team stay cool on the road.
Viking Tumbler: For those long hours on the road, they will want their coffee hot. But when they get home, they want their beverage cold. Great news…this does both. This Vacuum Seal Tumbler is awesome and a great value to boot.
Pocket Work Flashlight: This item is small, but it’s mighty! This flashlight not only is easy to carry with you, but it also has a super bright light. It also has a powerful magnet so the trucker in your life can use both hands when needed. This is a powerful tool at a powerful value.
Roadster Sticky Pad: Think about safety and uselfulness. The Roadster provides both to the drivers in your life. The Roadster provides a safe place for phones, GPS, sunglasses and more…and it keeps them there. Great for life on the road. Click here for more.
12 Can Duffel Cooler: Great for the road, and any other time. The 12 Can Duffel Cooler is one of our favorites for any occasion. Great quality and the perfect size for drinks and a big lunch on the road. This is a winner for many miles ahead.
LED Roadside Safey Light: Everyone you know can use a flashlight, but this one is perfect for that time on the road when things go wrong. There is a magnet on the end of the flashlight so you can place the light on the truck…and see what is going on! It even has a flashing light setting for extra safety! Click here for more details.
Clip It Vent Mount: We are all connected to our technology and this clip it vent mount keeps it within reach. The Clip It Vent Mount keeps the phone within reach in case of emergencies and allows for use for GPS and more. This is a great gift for the driver on the open road.
Need more? No problem. Let us know and we can hook you up! Make sure you say “thank you” in style to the Truck Driver (and team) in your life! Need more ideas, let us know! You can shop online here….or you can email us for more information.

Yes! Summer is finally here (for the most part). It’s the season for time outside, grilling steaks and walking along the beach…at least that’s our hope for you! But how do you create a cool promo campaign that make your customers think “summer” and still think of you? We can help. Here are a few summer items that are sure to heat up your next promo campaign! Flip Flops: Nothing says “it’s summer” like wearing Flip Flops! So if you are working on a campaign that promotes a summer sales incentive, a sales trip, or even just a gift that you want your customers to use around the pool, these Flip Flops can be an easy and fun gift. Viking Tumbler: Yes, the Viking tumbler is great at keeping coffee hot (which we still drink in the summer) but these Vacuum tumblers also keep your ice cold for 24 hours! Now in our experience, if you need to keep a cold drink cold for 24 hours, you are doing it wrong. But we are not here to judge! We just want you to know these are awesome for drinks around the pool. Check them out here. Sunscreen Stick: We love this because it’s functional with so many promotions. Your clients might have sunscreen, but this is perfect for use on the face to make sure the nose doesn’t end up fried! It’s functional and thoughtful. It can also be use for golf outings, summer events and more. Oh, and with a full color imprint you have lots of room to tell your story! Check it out here. Mirrored Sunglasses: The future’s so bright…you gotta wear shades! There are so many ways to build a campaign around these fun sunglasses! And with an affordable price point, these just shout out “summertime!” You want summer? You need these shades! Yes, each of these items can help you build a summer campaign or event to remember. But if you want to take your campaign to the “varsity” level, package all of these together for a rock star kit!
Need more ideas, let us know! You can shop online here….or you can email us for more information.

Last week, Dale Denham announced his 4th Annual Online18 from PromoMarketing. On this list, Dale outlines his list of the 18 biggest influencers in the Promotional Products Industry…and our very own Kirby Hasseman was recognized as this year’s number 1 influencer. What an honor! In looking at the list, we also realized that these fantastic people have been our teachers and mentors over the past few years…and we wanted to outline some of the lessons I have learned from the #Online18. They Give First: If you look up and down this list, this group of people provides value to those around them. Whether this is through creating valuable content or by sharing the content of others, the Online18 “give first.” They are Connectors: If you look at this list of influencers, you will notice people who know people. More importantly, you have a list of people that are willing to connect people. They do not hoard relationships or business…they spread it. They Create: Though there is a different level of “content creation” up and down this list, the Online18 is a group of people that create. Whether it’s through blogging, video, Facebook, Twitter, etc. they share what is going on in their lives. In doing so, they create value for those that follow them. They Choose Themselves: It takes a level of bravery to put yourself out there. It’s easier to wait for someone to choose you. This group doesn’t wait for someone else to appoint them to create value…they take the words of the infamous Nike campaign and they “just do it.” They Engage: In addition to pushing out their own content, this group engages with other content. We all have “that voice” in our head that tells us we are not good enough. The Online18 understands that by engaging with others content, you validate and start to build relationships with them. So like, comment and share your way to growing your own network! They Curate: You don’t have to be the only content creator on the block. It can be totally appropriate to share other valuable content to your followers as well. You add value and credibility. You also have the added benefit of helping the content creator as well. The Online18 is a great list of leaders in the Promo industry…and you can learn a lot of all of them. But let’s not forget the one that put the list together…Dale Denham. Dale puts a lot of time in this list each and every year. And the secret of course is the real influencer is the one that gets to select the influencers. That’s a great lesson to learn as well!
