Summer swag can be all fun and games…until the mosquitoes show up. šŸ˜…

Last week we featured reusable water balloons.

This week? A much less glamorous but very appreciated summer MVP: insect repellent.

Because whether it’s:
ā˜€ļø Company picnics
šŸ•ļø Camp outs
⚾ Outdoor events
šŸŽ¶ Music festivals
🌲 Parks & rec programs

…nobody remembers the swag if they spend the whole event swatting bugs.

And yes — branded insect repellent exists in way more formats than you’d think. Wipes, sprays, clips, towelettes, and more.

When you attach your brand to this health and wellness item, you inspire that ā€œyou’re a lifesaverā€ feeling with recipients. šŸ˜‰

PROMO IN THE WILD

Wendy loves a Broadway musical, and no show is complete without a visit to the merch booth. And nobody does it better than Disney, as she discovered on a recent trip to Indy to see Beauty and the Beast.

The whole display was full of fun details, but this Lumiere apron and oven mitt set absolutely stole the show. šŸ•Æļø

Cute? Yes.
Practical? Also yes.
Completely and perfectly Lumiere? Absolutely.

Sometimes merch just makes you smile. ✨

Ok, this decorating technique is COOL. šŸ‘€

This is an embroidered logo…on a hardbound journal.

Plus a brief guest appearance from our Chief Morale Officer, who clearly felt she should be involved in this product review. 🐾

Take a look. ā¬‡ļø

It’s been kind of gloomy and rainy around here lately, so it feels like a good time to talk about umbrellas. ā˜”

Data from ASI (Advertising Specialty Institute) shows that umbrellas generate an average of 1,760 impressions over their lifetime. That means a $10 travel umbrella can end up costing less than a penny per impression.

And interestingly? ASI’s research also suggests people aren’t overloaded with promotional umbrellas — making them a surprisingly strong addition to your swag strategy.

One of our personal favorites: the Color Flip inverted umbrella. It keeps the wet side tucked inward when closed, which means less dripping all over you, your car, and your floor. Small detail. Big difference.

And honestly? It’s just kind of fun. šŸ˜„

The Chisel Infinity Carpenter Pencil never needs to be sharpened – and as best we can tell so far, it pretty much lasts forever. Your imprint does too.

In other words, it may very well be the last carpenter pencil anyone will ever need.

Does it cost more than a traditional carpenter pencil? Of course.
Is it worth it? Also of course. 😊

We’ve gotten great feedback from our clients who’ve ordered these already, and we even have samples available if you’d like to test one out before committing.

Let us know if you’d like us to send you one!

We’ve said it before, but it keeps getting better…

Swag isn’t just about the product anymore—it’s about the presentation too. šŸ‘€

We’re seeing some seriously cool packaging and decorating techniques pop up for candy, snacks, and sweet treats lately, and honestly? They deserve a moment.

Take a look at a few favorites we’ve come across lately. ā¬‡ļø

(And fair warning: you might leave this video hungry and inspired.)

Recently not one but TWO different friends sent pictures of Stein Ad Promos lip balm that have stood the test of time.

One of them even predates our name change from Stein Advertising, which means it’s (cough)…vintage. šŸ˜‚

Glad to know it’s still getting the job done after all these years!

Side note – we pretty much always have lip balm in our swag stash, so go ahead and use it up – we can give you more! šŸ˜‚

Now we’re curious…what’s the oldest piece of swag you still have (and actually use)?

This is the kind of swag story we LOVE šŸ‘‡

T & M Hardware and Rental ordered branded mini buckets…
…and instead of just handing them out, they got creative.

They partnered with a local ice cream shop and turned those buckets into ice cream bowls for Small Business Saturday. šŸ¦

Fun? Yes.
Memorable? Absolutely.
Sitting in a drawer somewhere? Not a chance.

We love seeing local businesses work together—and when thoughtful merch is part of the mix, even better. šŸ™Œ
