Help on Marketing for tradeshows

[dehawk]

My company is looking at going to tradeshows and I was to arrange the give always, can anyone recommend a good personalized gift site or any ideas on what to give away. I was thinking on the lines of 16 MB zip drives. Hopefully order a couple of thousand for 3 a pop.

Any help will be appreciated.

I tried to do a search on google for you, but most places want you to submit you request and then quote the price later.

Not sure how much lower the price break would be from this place, but worth a shot

i like the usb idea... just keep in mind that your booth maybe "very popular" at the tradeshow once people start to realize that you get a free usb drive! you may want to keep them under the table, and hand the usb's out to people who seem more genuinely interested in your company... and just put something cheaper out, like pens or something, on the freebie table.

yes I agree, you'd be surprised on how many of those freeloaders there are, and less genuine. But at least you'd get traffic, because it feels horrible when there's not one person coming to your booth for hours.
