Companies allocate a huge proportion of their funds for promotional campaigns. They use several marketing tools to make people feel a connection with the brand and create a recall in their minds. The form of marketing materials may change but the objective remains the same – they must be pleasant to look at and develop a strong recall of the company. Lanyards are an excellent example of this.

T-shirts have for long been a preferred option at business events as they are known to be very effective in promoting the company. However, lanyards, the new entry in the marketing toolkit is quickly gaining ground. They are widely used nowadays, as potential customers often instinctively end up reading the company’s slogan and logo printed on them.

Lanyards can be a versatile tool at corporate events such as conventions, conferences and business fairs. They can be circulated among the attendees who are participating in the event. The lanyard may also contain the name of the event along with the company name, and hence act as a souvenir for the recipients.

Lanyards, since they are lesser expensive than printed t-shirts, can be a much more cost effective promotional tool. They develop goodwill among potential clients and it is a well known fact that they have an excellent recall value.

Lanyards, apart from being highly economical and effective, also have other benefits as promotional items. Lanyard can be printed with eye catching colours, which helps in attracting people’s attention towards them. They can be used for other things like ID card holders, which means that their usability value is high. Because of its versatility, potential customers can also take it with themselves and find various uses of it, which gets exposure to your brand for a long time.

• Move beyond the checklist approach with a filter for evaluating the myriad of opportunities within mobile
• Think of ways to use mobile to merge online and offline strategies, as a hub that bridges the gap
• Encourage a dialogue about what matters in mobile now, and what’s ahead for this new and exciting medium
