The silicone wristband’s successor?

Is the polyester wristband going to replace the incontrovertible silicone wristband?

It seems that the Polyester wristband is knowing more and more success as a promotional product! Made of the same material than the lanyards, they are used in the same purpose than the silicone wristbands: comunicate a (promotional) message, proclaim its belonging to a group, etc.

But what are the advantages that will make you choose the polyester wristbands rather than the Silicone one?
First of all the MATERIAL: polyester is much softer and confortable to be worn than silicone. It won’t pull your body hair or skin each time you take it off !!

French-Kissing The Changing Face Of Our Industry

Article from Michael Crooks from Crooks Advertising Alliance.

I’m sitting here staring in disbelief at an $83 UPS bill for 4 lightweight, plastic calculator samples that look like Lego® blocks. When I ordered the samples, I didn’t know that they were being shipped to me DIRECTLY FROM CHINA! Now I’ve got four, $5 samples that cost me north of $20 each. After a bitchy email back and fourth with my supplier, I find out that I can’t show them to anyone anyway.
Why? Because in addition to my hissy fit over the freight cost, I complained that the numbers on the calculator, that are the same color as the buttons, don’t show up as well as they did in the photo on which I based by decision to order the samples. I was informed that the product is being remanufactured to correct that problem. Great! I now have 4 calculators that do not accurately represent the final product. And I’m not likely to spend another $80+ to get the new ones…

Can You Promote Something To Death?

Article from Michael Crooks from Crooks Advertisng Alliance in the USA.

The question wasn’t volatile. But it ignited a discussion that absolutely exploded with insight. A member of an on-line discussion group asked, “What promotional products would be good to carry an anti-gang message for middle and high school kids?”

Are you kidding me? ……… NONE!

I believe I put it best when I wrote, “ … might as well hand out bulls-eyes imprinted with “Gangs Suck” for children to wear on their back.” By and large, kids who live in gangland face a tough, up hill battle. I mean, when was the last time you woke up in the morning and gave any thought to the fact that bullets fly faster than you can run … or duck? Yeah, shaking the bees’ nest by putting an anti-gang message on something and giving it to children to carry around or wear — is a bad, bad idea
