Why you should order free samples from Brandconnect
5 Reasons why you should take advantage of our free samples plan
Who doesn’t love free samples? Even better when there are no strings attached. Unfortunately, we find that some of our existing and potential clients don’t take advantage of this service. We’re not sure whether they’re just not aware, but we’re here to let you know that we want you to request them from us. We love it when you do!
If getting free samples is not enough to convince you, here are 5 other reasons why you should order free trial versions of promotional products from us ASAP!
1. Discover the power of promotional products
We’re not just here to sell products, we’re passionate about building brands and strengthening connections using promotional merchandise. So we consider it a win if new businesses come to us and benefit from the value of promotional marketing.
The promotional items industry is worth a billion dollars and there’s a reason for that. Custom products are not just for giveaways, they are also used for internal and external branding purposes, such as staff uniforms, employee incentives, fundraising, trade show and event merchandise, office supplies, and more. They can be used for practically anything while also delivering widespread branding opportunities regardless of what they’re used for.
2. Try before you buy
Samples allow you to physically examine the product and determine if it meets your standards for quality. If you are very particular about the way you want your brand to be perceived, it is a good idea to order sample products for the items you are interested in. This will help you check quality, colours, sizing and see how your logo will be presented. We mostly supply unbranded products, but for a small cost we are able to provide samples printed with your logo. This can be important if you are purchasing a large volume.
3. Cut advertising costs
Ordering a sample can be your first step in promotional marketing. Other forms of advertising, particularly in television, radio, and print can cost hundreds of thousands if not millions of dollars just for one campaign. Meanwhile, promotional products cost a fraction of traditional ad spend and generate more ROI. They are also the preferred advertising medium across all generations (from Baby Boomers to Gen Zs).
4. Learn about new and different promo merchandise
If your company’s budget is limited, then you may be hesitant to experiment with new items or even venture into promotional products. Our no-charge samples will allow you to use and experience new product types. If you’ve always wanted to transition to eco-friendly products but are unsure about the quality, you now can! There’s no difference between the quality of the regular and eco-friendly items. The prices are even similar so if you’re waiting for a sign to go eco, here it is!
5. Get samples with no strings attached
Perhaps you’re thinking, “What’s in it for you?” If you’re thinking that there are hidden charges or obligations in exchange, then you’re wrong! Our samples are complimentary and obligation-free. However, there are limits.
* New customers or not registered: You can order samples under $10 for free. An initial order limit of 3 free samples applies to new customers. High-value items may incur a charge; plus $5 to cover shipping and handling.
* Account customers (with an annual spend of $5,000+ and a minimum of 3 orders): We send most items excluding high-value items and multiple sample requests. This is valid only for the 30 days that the account is active.
BONUS: Somethings brewing within Brandconnect's halls!
