Budget Friendly Gifts
“Budget-friendly doesn’t mean forgettable.” Cheap and cheerful isn’t the goal — memorable and meaningful is. You can make something feel thoughtful, useful, and lasting. It’s about smart branding, not big spending.” Sometimes It’s not what you give — it’s when and how you give it. Tie small gifts to a moment or emotion:
- “Welcome back to the office!”
- “Thanks for your loyalty”
- “You survived tax season!”
Create moments people remember your brand for.
Value shows up. When you make it personal like such as adding a name imprint, including a message card, or upgrading to branded packaging can take your gift up a notch without breaking the bank. Think how presentation can build the relationship.
Cheap sometimes breaks fast. Smart lasts longer. Invest in quality where it counts; a slightly better pen or tumbler adds months to your brand’s lifespan. That’s worth an extra per piece.
Useful items are always a big hit. Click here to see some budget friendly gift ideas from PCNA
- On Page 7 you’ll see the Silicone Food Storage Box, at under $15 on an order of just 72, you can be dining with your staff and clients several times per week because this it an item that gets used.
- Often people are cycling through economical pens. I am a big advocate of putting your brand on a pen that people want to fight over. Many people respect the feel of an expensive pen like the Luxe found on page 11 for under $25 on an order of 40. Branded pens can range from 7-cents all the way up to $1,300 each.
- Useful tech is also a winner. Instead of tossing your headset to the side of your desk, people can have a parking spot for them with the 100% wood stand as shown on page 15.
- Jump over to Page 17 and you’ll see for under $30 the mini-Rechargeable desk lamp can add to the vibe of a workspace.
