But they all look pretty much the same, and they all look pretty boring. If you can apply some sort of snazzy design to your promotional flash drive, recipients will think up reasons to use your drive over the others. That means a lot more time that they’ll spend looking at your brand and thinking about the person that gave them this drive it brightens up your day just a tiny bit.
The prices of flash drives continue to drop. So even with a custom design, promotional flash drives are not terribly expensive. They make excellent gifts to current clients as a way of saying thank you for the business. They also are great premium to give to high-value prospective clients. And if you load them up with your business presentations, they may even be the perfect thing to drop off for someone who might not otherwise have time to see you give it in person.
Here’s one word of warning, though. Don’t try to skimp on the cost by purchasing recycled chips or lower grade chips. You have to assume that your recipients will be using a flash drive (otherwise, why hand it out?), and you definitely don’t want to be the guy who gave them the flash drive that loses all of their data.
So there you have it. Promotional flash drives are a great idea for your business because it’s one premium that people like to receive. They are affordable and can provide a great return on the investment. But don’t lowball quality, because that’s your brand on it and you don’t want to associate your brand with cheap junk that doesn’t work.
